While the Brezza has received a brand new 10.1-inch touchscreen, the Venue still has a better infotainment system.

Hyundai launched the new-gen Venue with a new platform, the K1 platform, which helped improve the SUV’s safety and rigidity. This helped the Venue become the safest SUV in its segment.
While Maruti has tried to offer rear ADAS features like rear cross-traffic alert, blind spot warning and safety exit warning, it still does not match the safety that the Venue offers with its Level 2 ADAS.

Maruti Brezza Vs Hyundai Venue – Motoroctane Says
That said, it is quite clear that the Hyundai Venue is very well equipped in terms of features and tech when compared to the Brezza. However, it is worth noting that the Hyundai Venue carries a price tag ranging from Rs 9.38 lakh to Rs 19.08 lakh (on-road, Mumbai), with the majority of the features in the top-spec models. The Brezza, on the other hand, is priced between Rs 8.63 lakh and Rs 16.24 lakh (on-road, Mumbai), making it considerably cheaper than the Venue’s top model. So, if you’re looking for an SUV that is loaded to the brim with features, the Venue could be the one for you. However, if you’re looking for a value-for-money car with all the essential features at an attractive price point, the Brezza could be a wise choice.
