Hyundai Venue S (O)+: Rivals With Sunroof Option

The Hyundai Venue S (O)+ with the electric sunroof certainly makes the feature more affordable for aspiring buyers. However, it's not the most accessible offering in the segment. Instead, the Mahindra XUV 3XO gets the feature on the MX2 Pro variant for as low as ₹8.99 lakh. Meanwhile, the Kia Sonet gets an electric sunroof on the HTE (O) trim that's priced at ₹8.29 lakh. All prices are ex-showroom.
