In the Vietnamese market, Hyundai is officially distributed with 2 variants and a turbocharged 1.0L gasoline engine with prices ranging from 539 to 579 million dong. At the end of the first month of 2024, while Toyota Raiz and Kia Sonnet both saw a decrease in sales, Venue was the only model that recorded a sales growth. Specifically, Venue delivered 196 units to consumers in January 2024, an increase of 8.1% compared to December 2023. This growth was achieved thanks to the newly launched Venue variant since mid-December 2023, which initially had relatively low sales figures.
