They shows a lot similarities, they are based on same chasis, they have got same engine and transmission option as well.

So let's evaluate which one is batter. Here we are comparing the best selling varient of venue SX and sonet HTX.
Design 
Talking about design, venu is smooth and futuristic where as kia sonet is wild in design. In front profile venue has smooth edges and bumper mounted headlamp which makes it bold. Kia seltos is equipped with tiger nose grille and heart beat shaped lights at rear which makes her wild. Both the vehicles are very up market in terms of design. However design is a subjective factor, that varied person to person.
At the side profile sonet is flat at rear because sonet is a B segment SUV ant it must have length under 4 meter. So rear/side design of sonet may be disappoint some people. In rear/side profile of venue there is no such issue. Rear profile of venue is quite simple where as a sort of diffuser like treatment on the rear bumper of sonet results a sporty look.
Dimensions

Interior and cabin space 
Both the cars are sophisticated and up market. Interior of venue is futuristic where as sonet is feature loaded. Both the car gets 10 inch touch screen infotainment system. Venue gets analog instrument cluster with a small multi information display. Sonet gets semi digital instrument cluster which feels batter.

Talking about selection of material venue and sonet gets hard plastic over dashboard but sonet gets soft touch treatment over the door pads which venue doesn't offers. Sonet also. Seat cushioning of sonet is slightly harder than venue. Seat upholstery of sonet is a sort of leather but venue comes with fabric upholstery. Venue interior is offered in black theme where as sonet interior is offered beige.
Both the car doesn't offers such a copious amount of rear space but how much they offer is adequate. If we go deeply venue offers slightly more knee room comparatively. However sonet is less spacious than venue it feels more airy because of its beige interior.
