Sales may be up, but they can't be too high. At least not in Chicago. In the sixteen months I've owned my Venue, I've seen exactly FIVE others on the streets. Compare that to the dozen or so Kia Souls that I see every day!

I agree with Jake. I live in downtown Boston and in my year of ownership I have seen one other Venue... and that sighting was 11 months ago. I'm surprised, as this vehicle a perfect match for city dwellers, always on the hunt for parking. I'm going to chalk it up to the year of the virus and a minimal marketing push by Hyundai. The Venue sold 19,125 vehicles in 2020. Honda is no longer selling the Fit in America, so maybe the Venue can grab it's market share. I hope so, I'm a fan.

I also considered the Hyundai Kona, as it offers a lot more bells and whistles. However it is 5 inches longer and a tad wider than the Venue and in the end I went with the smaller vehicle and have not regretted it. Hyundai releases it's sales figures monthly and I've been following them out of curiosity. I'm hoping Venue finds it's market and we start seeing more of them out in the wild.
