Veloster Turbo

Very small reliable car. I love how well this car handle... especially how it hugs the road. It has a lot of get up and go! Very fun to drive.. My Veloster was used but almost new. I have enjoyed my little car. I would highly recommend this vehicle.

2016 Veloster

Love this style and features. I get a lot of complements on the color. I was concerned that I had to replace all four tires before 11,500 miles. They should be better than that. Also the car is very low to the ground but otherwise I love it and and when I need to go bigger will go with a Hyundai vehicle.

One satisfied Customer

I love my Hyundai Veloster Turbo - it has the extra boost I need, its great on gas and it looks good too! People are always asking me about my car, what is it. When I tell people its a Hyundai Veloster, they give me a puzzled look. I have let them look inside the car, pop and raise the hood, back hatch and even show them the third door. Trust me I don't mind showing off my Veloster.

I like every part of my Veloster

I've had my Veloster since it was new.. It is a 2016 model. It handles as though the yrs haven't passed. It's always exciting to drive. I like this car so much I'm going to purchase it when my lease is up in a few months. Get one of your own because you can't have mine..

Fun care

I have owned 3 of them and they have been great, there are a few things though, it is not the smoothest ride, sits down low on the ground and you feel the road. Its ok if thats what you are looking for. I do have issues with the whole not having a spare tire thing. I know, some new cars are going to this but its a pain in the butt if you get a flat and have to be towed. Good stereo, very comfortable for me 5'5"

Not worth the price of admission

Nice out of the gate with style and options(24,000 sticker so it should have something ), but quickly became flawed. Broken door handle, broken hatch switch(electrical). Underpowered to say the least. If you drive in snow, (1,400) for tires and rims are a necessity. Highest cost for insurance i have paid in my life and abysmal value after only 2 years of ownership. For the money Toyota or Honda are better choices.

Veloster

I hate being so brutal but I do not like my veloster. It's the most uncomfortable car I have ever had.... I dont like the paddles behind the steering wheel... And the voice command is in a bad spot..always hitting it! Ugh....

Great Car

it is an OK car, not too crazy about having only 3 doors, I would rather have a full back seat instead of the console right in the middle, I have never used the paddles that on the steering wheel (DO NOT LIKE THEM). I wish I would have upgraded to a newer elantra - loved that car!!!!

Two Issues.

I only have two issues about this car. The most annoying thing about the Veloster, is that the engine is too small for this car, considering its relatively small size. Occasionally, when trying to move from a dead stop, the transmission will slip, causing the car to stop in the middle of the intersection while the engine races. I have to let off of the gas to let the engine reengage. The benefit of this is of course the gas mileage, which is just great!!! The inside is comfortable enough, and I like the feel while driving. The second annoyance is the bumping your head when entering the car. Even with the large wheels, I still feel like i'm crawling in. Still, considering all of the other features, I still like the car.

I'm honestly a bit disappointed I didn't go for the Turbo model (got it in yellow), but still completely glad i chose this as my first new car. 2 years and still happy. Would still highly recommend this to anyone.

This car is fast around corners.

I had intended to buy an Elantra but didn't because I fell in love with this Veloster Turbo. It had 97 cubic inches and 201 horsepower. This car has great mileage ( 32mpg) and is fast! I've had it up to 120 and it was still pulling. Unless a full size vehicle has over 450 HP it won't out run this little rocket. It goes from 0 to 60 in 6 seconds. The drive train is smooth and you can't feel it running. The 4 wheel disc brakes will stop on a dime. I don't know if a person has ever had a car pull out in front of you but it happened to me and I stopped with road to spare. The ride is a little stiff, but it goes around corners really good. You don't get in or out of this car, you put it on and you take it off. This is NOT a boring car!

Awesome in every way, except..

#1. LOVE this car. I needed a commuter 'cool' car that got good gas mileage. It's a 2016 turbo that gets on average between city and SLOW (traffic) highway, about 32 mpg. I took it from Rock Hill SC to Cumberland MD and never got tired. Very comfortable sport seats. All tech stuff is up-to-date and great. Now, the one flaw. Let me preface by saying I am not a diagnostic guy. But there is something wrong with the stop-and-go shifting. Like on the highway at rush hour and the car will either not accelerate (with the touch of the gas pedal), or tool up the turbo and shoot forward, needing to apply the brake, while the turbo is still tacking. the transition from 1st to 2nd gear jerks the car like a teenager with their first stick sift (this is the one that kills me). I have heard other stories from Veloster owners. Other than that I love it!

Duel clutch syster

Terrible that you’re selling a transmission that doesn’t work. I was actually told at the dealership that I blew the clutch. I have been driving manual transmissions for 20 years and have never blown a clutch, but now that I have an automatic, I was able To blow it. Interesting...

If I could give it half a star I would

My 2016 Hyundai Veloster has had a new stereo, shift actuator, transmission and now TCM put in it just since April. I bought the car brand new and have had various issues with the transmission and original stereo. Thank god I have recorded them on my phone. It took Hyundai almost the entire month of April to fix the stereo and my car has been back three times to get the transmission to work, and I still don't know if the problem has been fixed. I am afraid to take the car outside of the city of Dayton for fear I won't be able to drive it back home and will be stuck and unable to get a tow truck at night or on Sunday.

Experience the Veloster, it is an amazing sports car.

This is my first imported car I have ever owned. I am glad I chose the Hyundai Veloster. It is very stylish both outside and inside. Besides, the color of this car is close to Tangerine, it definitely gets attention everywhere and when talking to people about it. I have to point out that the car only has 3 doors. THAT'S RIGHT.

I do not want to write 200 words so here it is I have enjoyed my vehicle and hopefully I will be able to maintain it for at least five years and buy a new one at that particular time. Thank you for your service to me and my family.

Awesomeness in the form of a beautiful car

I got my veloster in July it's now October and not one single problem, I drive close to 1000 miles a week. The car is comfortable and smooth. It has plenty of power for playing and excellent economy for the long drives. An overall great drive. I fell in love the second i sat in the seat. And that hasn't changed.

Veloster- Sporty, comfortable and full of pep!

The Veloster provides a unique combination of sporty good looks, a comfortable “cockpit” and unexpected power/“zip” from its Turbo engine! We were completely surprised by our Veloster’s ability to easily power up the very steep hill that leads to our home! It’s fun to drive and an added “plus” - its 4-cylinder Turbo engine gets good mileage!
