Fun at first

Not much to say except within the first 4 months the transmission gave out. It leaked than the dealer couldn’t repair it so they ordered a new transmission which will take a long time to order because it’s the first engine/transmission of its kind so yay. Been a month without my N. If I knew how rare these parts were I wouldn’t have gotten. At the same time I never thought the reliable Hyundai brand will have their transmission go out on me. Dealerships with Hyundai around me has been a hassle as well. Maybes it just my luck. Car sounds and performed great when it worked. Comfort is ok if you don’t plan to drive this over an hour a day. Infotainment seem lacking compared to the responsiveness of other Hyundai model. Not sure why they have the veloster N the bad treatment on the touch screen side.

Ride is too harsh

Great weekend warrior/ track car, but terrible daily driver. You will get airborne on the freeway with every road imperfection with suspension on the softest setting. Engineers need to implement a "Daily Driver Mode" with some softer suspension settings.

Could be awesome!!!

Still too early to tell about the reliability. Even though I already had the dealership fixed/replaced old car problems on my new car... Other than that I love driving the car. It's still the right choice for me & hopefully my early mechanical problems with the car is just a fluke only time will tell but I really hope so coz this is by far my favorite car that I ever driven. Way better than the base clown shoe coupe..

Great Looking, DCT needed more testing

Many overlooked issues that should have been addressed prior to release. Very bad sealing from road noise, and down shifting snaps your head forward. At times you will be coming to a stop and each gear snaps your head forward, you learn to anticipate it but it gets old quickly.

great car with a few nagging issues

I love driving this car. I love the nimbleness and pep that this car brings to the road. But as fun as this car is to drive, the nagging issue that are not resolve and the support of Hyundia customer service make this purchase a big regret. First the lane assists not working when you dump the stock Pirelli tires. What we discovered, is the road noise of other tire manufacturers, make your vehicle think there are other vehicles on both sides, making the turn signal, a constant chirping in your ears. Hyundai's only solutions is going back to Pirellis. I have spoke with my dealer and customer service. Hyundia customer service is rude and useless. Dealers service has great but still have no solution and states they are waiting on Hyundia for a fix. 2nd my horn stopped working at 20 to 30k miles . The horn was replaced, and the issues is back after 64k. 3rd, making appointments with any Hyundai dealers is an act on congress. they are always booked. I only have this issue with Hyundia. I have very tight schedule. I never have issues with my Nissan service dept. 4th, the tire repair kit is a cheap way to Hyundia saving money. I used it and it did noting form me. I had to call roadside assistance. I then asked my dealer to install a spare tire kit. The dealer purchased the so call kit but a year later when I had a flat tire, and realized the tire would not fit over my brake calipers. Now I'm angry. I'm on the side of the road with a useless spare tire I purchased from my Hyundia dealer, at a premium rate. Come to find out when I go back to the dealer, Hyundia does not make a spare tire kit for the Veloster N. I had to purchase an aftermarket spare tire. I'm still waiting for Hyundia to reimburse me after 6 week of turning in receipt. So I would think Hyundia maintenance dept should know their vehicles, right?

10/10

This car is mean. Everyone wants to race, get many compliments on it. It's such a fun car to drive and the exhaust sound is just beautiful and it is better in N mode, it's loud and mean, this comes stock!

Can't lose with the Veloster N

Great hot hatch for the price! Offers a good range for all types of drivers with the various modes available for the numerous performance and handling variables. Can't go wrong with the price for performance of this car. It lacks some of the more upscale options as a result but you won't get some of the performance options on anything else at this price point.

Good and quick

Good car with a different feel then most cars that are comparable. Has alot of custom modes and is different then most cars from Hyundai. Good power and great handling. Is responsive and knows what it should do. Comfortably is not all there but it’s not ment to be

Love this car but not perfect.

This car is really fun to drive. On the interstate I am averaging 30.1 miles witch is high than expected. I love the look and space and especially love the handling and steering. I do with the interior was less cheap feeling. it scratches and scuffs very easy. Paint could also be a little thicker. Chips very easy.

Amazing. More attention to detail needed

Great vehicle. Needs more attention to detail and stop dealers from scamming. Also, the car definitely has room for improvement such as better paint, heated seats in the US, and having the car start in whatever mode I desire instead of having to change it whenever I get in the car. Also, how about wireless Apple CarPlay?

The better priced hot hatch.

Great performance hatch that the entire family can fit in comfortably. Great Saturday track car and smooth cruiser for the daily commute. The price point for performance is truly the best feature about this car.

Great sound and styling, worrisome transmission

One of the best looking cars on the market right now and not American made. Korean and Japanese quality is important to me, as American and Chinese vehicles I do not trust. The transmission is clunky in 1st gear and the glove box rattles but it comes with the territory. I love my N with dct

Fun car

Fun car to drive lacking in interior comfort. But if you want something fun it is still worth it. The seats are nice but can be tight and a lot of interior plastics. The way the car handles and drives is the best for the money.

Very fun vehicle but far from perfect.

I like my.car bit for the price it should have been so much better. First I love the mobility and exhaust sounds. What I hate is the road noise. Over 40 miles an hour, the radio sound horrible. Also I have the plastic every where! For 36k I should have something south better tha soft plastic

The fastest most affordable HotHatch

0-60 in 4.8 seconds and handling that competes with cars 10k more while still offering a fantastic safety suite and enough space for any adventures you go on. While offering great MPG that won’t burn a hole in your pocket.

Was a great ride, taken out too early by a deer.

Great car, good fun. Bad High Pressure Fuel Pumps, and stock Pirelli Tires.Gone too soon from an unavoidable 12 point buck. Great fun in the turns, had most cars in the straights as well. N line is best line.

FUN CORNER RASCAL

absolutely love my 2021 Veloster N DCT! The funnest car I’ve driven in a long time. I’m a big hot hatch guy, and with hot hatches slowly dying out, I’m happy to say that Hyundai is doing GREAT things with this category! Do yourself a favor and test drive one ASAP
