It’s nearly 5 and a half years since the Hyundai Venue went on sale in India, and the sub-4m SUV has now crossed the sales milestone of 6 lakh units in the domestic market. This makes it Hyundai’s second highest-selling SUV after the Creta, which has over 1.13 million buyers so far.

The next 1 lakh units were sold in the same span of 11 months. It hit the half-a-million mark in November 2023 and took almost one year to reach 6 lakh units.
