At least in the states, supply is low. Most new cars disappear as soon as they arrive or are pre-sold. That said, it wasn't hard to get the Venue I wanted. They just did a dealer trade with a dealer 100 KM away.
We did have to pay retail -- about $21,500 USD for the '21 Venue SEL. But still better than buying from Carvana. Carvana wants more than retail for a used Venue. To avoid the supposed "horrible" dealership experience. The local dealer was awesome. And since my Venue is new, I get a 10-year powertrain warranty (160,000 KM). You don't get that with a Carvana-used one since the 10-year warranty is only good for the original owner, not 2nd owner.
In Canada, you guys don't have that 10-year warranty. If the dealer can offer something akin to it at a cheap price and it's Hyundai-backed, I'd consider it if I were you. But chances are you won't need it as long as you maintain your Venue well.
I don't think you will have much luck negotiating on price. Supply is low. But the Venue is a cool vehicle with a lot of safety features and the gas mileage is great.
