The Venucia T70 SUV has been launched on the Chinese car market, moving the Venucia brand into the lucrative compact SUV segment in China for the first time. Price for the Venucia T70 SUV starts at 89.800 yuan and ends at 127.800 yuan ($14.480 – 20.610).

A neat place to be but the beige plastics look rather cheap. Handbrake located on the far-right side of the center tunnel, almost begging the passenger to play. Mid-size screen sits high in the center console.

Easily enough space for three and some dogs.

Design not super exciting but Venucia is at least trying to come up with something original, instead of just rebadging. Roof rails are functional.

Grille probably a bit too subtle for China. It could do with some more chrome and other shiny.
