What is the Venueir car from Venucia?
3 Answers
There is no car model named Venueir. Only a brand with similar letters exists, which is Venucia. Venucia originates from Greek, meaning the Morning Star. In Chinese, it is called Dongfeng Venucia, symbolizing the first ray of light that heralds the dawn and guides the future direction. Additional Information: Venucia Motors: The Venucia brand was established on September 8, 2010, and launched its first model, the D50, in April 2012. Venucia Motors is a key component of Dongfeng Group's "Big Self-owned" strategy and became officially independent in 2017. About the Brand: The current brand logo of Venucia was introduced on its 7th anniversary. The early logo featured a blue background with a large white star surrounded by four smaller five-pointed stars (three blue and one white).
The VenueIR is a compact SUV launched by Dongfeng Venucia, positioned as an affordable urban commuter car priced around 100,000 yuan. I had a close look at the actual vehicle at the auto show, and its body design is quite stylish. It comes equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine delivering around 120 horsepower, paired with a CVT transmission that provides smooth and quiet driving. The fuel consumption is low for daily driving, averaging about 6L per 100 kilometers, making it suitable for commuting or short trips. However, the interior has a somewhat plastic feel, and the seats are a bit firm, which might be uncomfortable for long rides. Overall, this car inherits Nissan's reliability genes, offers a budget-friendly price with low maintenance costs, making it an excellent choice for young people on a tight budget as their first car.
I recently test drove the Venucia Venue and found it to be a practical compact SUV with spacious interiors—three adults can sit comfortably in the back row without feeling cramped. The handling is light and agile, making it easy to maneuver through traffic jams. The interior is simple yet functional, with quick responses from the AC and audio system, though the sound quality is average. As a family car, it comes equipped with basic safety features like ABS and EBD, but lacks advanced active safety systems such as adaptive cruise control. It’s fuel-efficient and hassle-free for daily city driving, with quick acceleration from a standstill, though overtaking on highways feels a bit sluggish. Priced competitively between 100,000 to 150,000 RMB, it offers better value for money compared to the Honda HR-V (Vezel), making it a solid recommendation for new drivers just starting their careers.
