A short video of what looks to be the new Hyundai Venue N-Line has surfaced, providing a glimpse at the sportier derivative of the upcoming next-gen Venue being tested in India.

The video, taken on a highway at night, reveals part of the lighting elements of the upcoming second-gen subcompact SUV. This includes the LED lighting elements within the tail lamps, sequential turn signals, a full-width lightbar atop the front fascia and low-set LED headlamps. Elements identifying this model as the N-Line are the dual exhaust tips sticking out the back, and while the wheels are not clearly visible, they are expected to feature a sportier design compared to the standard model.

The video does not provide a glimpse of the Venue N-Line’s cabin, though prior images of the new Venue testing have revealed the presence of a large curved display housing dual screens atop a new look dashboard. The N-Line variants are expected to get sportier detailing over its standard compatriot, including darker upholstery colours, contrasting inserts and stitching and a steering wheel from the N parts bin.

Mechanically, the Venue N-Line is expected to only be offered with the familiar 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine offered in the current Venue and Venue N-Line. The unit is also expected to be offered in the standard Venue as well, with no notable changes to output or tuning. The N-Line, however, is expected to get a retuned suspension and steering set-up compared to the standard Venue, aside from a revamped exhaust. Gearbox options are likely to include both a manual and a DCT.
