The small crossover that replaced the Accent is currently Hyundai’s most affordable vehicle. Drivers will love its diminutive size around town and also the ergonomic interior, but the tight rear seats and trunk aren’t ideal for long trips. Under the hood of the Venue, a 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine produces 121 horsepower through a continuously variable transmission that is anything but subtle.

Looking at all the urban crossovers available on the market, the team at The Car Guide has identified the three models that represent the best buys for 2025. Often called SUVs, these vehicles are actually just high-riding cars with a larger trunk. Unlike true SUVs, they lack an all-wheel drive …

Hyundai has come up with a plan to protect its most theft-prone vehicles after several videos were posted on social media in recent months showing how easy it is to hotwire the engine and drive away.
