Hyundai Venue On Road Price in Meerut

Choosing between a manual, DCT, or torque-converter automatic is often the first real decision Meerut buyers face with the Venue, and the lineup accommodates all three preferences across both petrol and diesel powertrains. That transmission flexibility, combined with a ₹9.14 Lakh to ₹18.27 Lakh price spread, makes the variant selection exercise more about driving style than compromise.

Across the 27 variants, the ladder moves logically. The entry-level VENUE 1.2 Kappa MT HX2 at ₹9.14 Lakh pairs a 1.2-litre petrol engine with a manual gearbox — a straightforward urban runabout. Mid-tier variants introduce the turbo-petrol with DCT, appealing to buyers who want quicker shifts without a diesel commitment. At the top, the VENUE 1.5 CRDi AT DSL HX10 DT at ₹18.27 Lakh bundles diesel torque with an automatic transmission and the highest feature set, targeting those who rack up highway kilometres regularly.

The diesel variants deserve particular attention for buyers in and around Meerut who commute to Delhi-NCR or Haridwar frequently. A CRDi engine paired with an automatic gearbox reduces fatigue on the NH-58 corridor, though the price premium over a base petrol manual is substantial — roughly ₹9.1 Lakh. Petrol manuals and DCTs, on the other hand, suit city-centric usage where fuel economy differences between petrol and diesel narrow considerably.

Uttar Pradesh applies tiered road tax: 9% on vehicles with an ex-showroom price up to ₹10 Lakh and 11% above that threshold. This means several mid-range Venue variants cross into the higher slab, adding a noticeable bump to on-road cost. Additionally, variants priced above ₹10 Lakh attract 1% TCS. An on-road price is the sum of ex-showroom cost, RTO road tax, IRDAI-mandated insurance (three-year third-party plus one-year own damage and PA cover at Zone B non-metro rates), and applicable TCS.

Insurance costs in Meerut follow Zone B non-metro rates, which are generally lower than metro-city premiums. This partially offsets the higher RTO slab for mid and upper variants. Still, buyers should factor in the full breakup rather than comparing ex-showroom prices alone — the gap between two variants can widen or narrow once taxes and insurance are layered in.

From a practical standpoint, narrowing down to the right Venue variant in Meerut means weighing three things: daily commute pattern, tolerance for a diesel premium, and whether an automatic gearbox justifies its cost over a manual. Buyers primarily driving within city limits will find the lower petrol-manual variants offer the best value-to-feature ratio. Those with longer inter-city routines should evaluate the diesel-automatic end of the range, keeping the 11% road tax slab and TCS in mind while budgeting.
