The Hyundai i20 N Line, Hyundai Venue N Line, and the most recent model, the Hyundai Creta N Line, make up the current Hyundai N Line portfolio in India. Here are some similarities and differences between the two sportier Hyundai SUVs if you’re thinking about choosing one
Exterior Design
The “N Line” emblems on the outside, the red highlights throughout, the sportier alloy wheels, and the dual-tip exhaust are some of the similar design aspects shared by the Venue N Line and Creta N Line models. Red brake calipers, modified bumpers, and the N Line-only Thunder Blue paint option with a black roof are also included for both.
The N Line models and the standard models they are based on differ somewhat in terms of visual differentiation, though. While the Venue N Line features a slightly modified grille, it otherwise looks much like the basic Venue. Conversely, the Creta N Line features a redesigned grille design on its fascia.
The Creta N Line has larger 18-inch wheels, while the Venue N Line has 16-inch dual-tone alloy wheels.
Cabin
The inside of the Venue N Line and Creta N Line is all black, with red accents around the gear lever console, on the door pads, and on the dashboard. Hyundai is also providing the two N Line variants with contrast red stitching on the gear shifter, steering wheel, and seat fabric. The same 3-spoke steering wheel, leatherette upholstery, N Line-specific gear shift, and metal brake and accelerator pedal finishes are also included with both SUVs
Features
Some similar features shared by the Hyundai Venue N Line and Creta N Line include wireless phone charging, push-button start/stop, auto-LED projector headlights, a dual-camera dashcam, six airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).
The Creta N Line has dual-zone climate control, while the Venue N Line has auto air conditioning. For these functions, the latter has two 10.25-inch monitors, while the former has a single 8-inch touchscreen and a semi-digital driver display.
Extra equipment including an 8-speaker Bose sound system, heated front seats, an 8-way motorized driver seat, and a panoramic sunroof are also included with the Creta N Line. In addition, a 360-degree camera adds even more safety technology.
Powertrain Selections
The Creta receives a larger engine than the larger SUV, even though both N Line SUVs have turbo-petrol engines with a choice of manual or dual-clutch automatic transmission options:

The Venue N Line and Creta N Line have the same nomenclature, consisting of two broad versions that begin with the letter N and end with a number. But because the Venue is positioned lower than the Creta, the former’s versions begin at a lower number and the latter climbs up.
The Mahindra XUV300 TurboSport and the Kia Sonet GT and X-Line versions are the direct rivals of the Venue N Line. Conversely, the Volkswagen Taigun GT versions and the Kia Seltos GTX+ and X-Line variants face up against the Hyundai Creta N Line.
