Comparison Review

Comfort
The Hyundai Venue offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Nissan Kicks, with comparable head- and legroom. The Nissan Kicks will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Hyundai Venue.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Hyundai Venue as you will with the Nissan Kicks, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Hyundai Venue will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Nissan Kicks.

Dimensions
The Hyundai Venue is a little narrower than the Nissan Kicks, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. If you go with the Hyundai Venue, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Nissan Kicks.

Handling
The Hyundai Venue has a smaller turning radius than the Nissan Kicks, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Hyundai Venue has a little less horsepower than the Nissan Kicks.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Hyundai Venue doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Nissan Kicks.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Hyundai Venue and the Nissan Kicks. The Hyundai Venue has significantly less cargo capacity than the Nissan Kicks.
