Creative-Comfortable-a Looker

The design of the vehicle (three doors) was very creative to start with (additional sense of security); needless to say it's also aerodynamically laid out and comfortable, spacious and a joy to drive and I like the Attention it get driving down the road or just sitting in my driveway.

great little car

We love tooling around town in this sporty little gem. It is great on gas and it is a real head turner I just wish that the seat belt connection was not as short as it is It is rather difficult to connect on the passenger side

The Hyundai VELOSTER is the 2011 VW Euro Scirocco , Porsche 944, VW Corrado I have always wanted.

The Hyundai Veloster that debuted in the US in 2012 is a revelation of what car driving SHOULD BE, fun, efficient, exhilarating, effortless, and....FUN! I drive Stick/Manual in my European centric cars because you have more handle on the road, and if you lived in a snowy climate it was an essential skill. I was on assignment in Portugal and saw the 2011 VW scirocco reissue and had car jealousy, Cars in Europe are OUR sports cars, they have to maintain 90mph + on highways and have tight suspension for tiny streets and be fuel efficient, they are all diesel. I returned to the USA I thought I saw one of these VW's in a lot, but it was the Hyundia Veloster! I went looking for one to lease right away, the VW did not sell in the states, because no one would want the other VW's. I leased a RED Veloster, Manual, 45 MPG Highway, base model, Stick. People often asked me if it was a Porsche and it was AWESOME!!!!! It fits 4 adults with leg room as opposed to a Mini Cooper or a coupe with 2 doors. It had some computer / Fuel injection issues which Regional Hyundia handled in time, I am on my 2nd Veloster, BLUE, and may have to find a used Turbo soon, and live a little.... while avoiding speeding tickets. The Hyundia Veloster is like a German Sports Car with out having to make a mechanic your best friend. Hyundia really knows how to make something dependable and FUN!!! Did I mention it was fun?

Fun and sporty little car

I bought my used 2016 Veloster on Oahu and had driven around the island for several months before shipping the car to Maui. I really find this a very comfortable and fuel efficient car for being so small and sporty. The asymmetrical door layout is very convenient for loading large items through the rear hatch or to just plop groceries in the back seat. Everything works as designed and has a high quality feel to it. I wish I had bought one these sooner.

Veloster 2016

I love cars. I take exceptional care of my car and I enjoy driving. My Veloster is fun, sporty and just cute to look at. It only has one flaw that is awful! The blind spot on the front passenger side window area where the mirror sets in the door. It is really, really bad. You'd think it would be the minimal vision from the back window. It's fine. When I'm driving I have to make sure I move my head and body all around when looking for traffic/activity on the right front/side of my car. I have missed seeing, cars, bicycles, and people because of this blind spot. I actually counted how many seconds before the headlights of a car came into view that was traveling from a distance on my right. It was almost 3 full seconds. That's unacceptable. I've learned to over compensate and thoroughly check for activity on the right side of my car after almost running over a bicycle. Scared the crap out of both of us. So please be aware of this unacceptable blind spot.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my vehicle

I just LOVE my vehicle. I have not had any major problems since I had my vehicle in 2016...the only problem I've ever had was not from driving my car but simply from regular maintenance...ie nails in my tires, basic oil change, tire rotation. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone wanting a nice economic car, good on gas, and certainly a very good looking car. Too bad I can't afford a brand new one, but I'm very happy with the one I have.

Gas saver!

This is a great vehicle for saving money on gas. Drives smoothly and has a variety of useful features, plus for its small size it is very roomy and comfortable. I recommend this car for traveling to far destinations.

I love my 2016 Veloster turbo! It is fun and fast! Stylish too! Corners great and turns heads. Lots of room. Great leather seats and my 6 speed stick shift is smooth! My next one will be the Veloster N for sure!!!

All-Time Fave Vehicle

I bought this car new from the Hyundai dealership in 2015 and have enjoyed driving it every single day. So much fun to drive. Absolute comfort seating and sporty interior. Great on long road trips, with no driver fatigue. Tons of cargo space, which you'd never guess when looking at this sporty little gem. I love this zippy little whip!

Fun little hot hatch

I love my Veloster. While not necessarily a fast car, it is a fun car to drive especially with a stick shift. It is quick, loves to turn, and people always either compliment or need to ask me all kinds of questions about the car because of how unique it is. If you are into tuning, it is very easy to work on and modify. It does not take much to boost the fun factor as just a few bolt sons and tune can make it easily better than some of the bigger hatches like a Ford Focus ST. The Interior is very comfortable and roomy for such a small car. Plenty of trunk space for all your needs. The only downside is the fact these cars a little quirky. They have their little annoyances like laggy or inconsistent throttle response or a gearbox that does not always want to do what you tell it to do. It absolutely sucks to drive with traction control on because the slightest indication of wheel spin and the engine cuts off for a second. The throttle can be a bit jerky at times because of the stock intake design. Simple mods and tuning changes fix that and this is a car that typically you will want to improve as the factory version of the car is not the best of designs, especially because of the turbo GDI engine.

Love it!

I had no idea what a Veloster looked like. All I know is I asked God for a car since my last car had been flooded out. After a couple of months, He told ne to go to Hyundai South Loop. He was already there when I arrived...from the beginning to the end. And I drove out with a brand new sporty Veloster with all the bells and whistles. I felt young again and still do. It's quick, fast and easy to handle. It has all the bells and whistles I need. When traffic is light on weekend mornings , I take off driving as fast as I can mindful of my surroundings and it is exhilarating.I am energized. Even more because I know my car is in excellent service care from my dealership. You are the best!

Highly Recommended

Being that it’s my first ever “brand new” car, the Hyundai Veloster doesn’t disappoint. It’s fun to drive and has stunning good looks that’s unique to the car world. I also love the compact design with its sexy curves and low stance. Additionally, my car came with the Style Package which includes; upgraded Dimension Radio, 18” wheels, panoramic sunroof and piano black finishes throughout. Although I wish it had the Tech package to round everything out but it’s a fun car to take on road trips!

Fun Ride

I enjoy driving this little car. It has lots of leg room and good mileage. Not the smoothest ride - you'll feel the bumps - but I had read that before buying. Love the panoramic sunroof. Interior design is sporty.

Best car I’ve ever owned

I am a first time Hyundai owner, I took time prior to buying a car to review ratings on various cars, the Veloster had exceptional reviews and what sold me was not many people wanting to get rid of them. I had a family member that owned one and got 300,000 miles out of it. I love the sporty body design. I have been very pleased with my purchase and won’t buy anything else.

2016 Veloster Turbo

I’ve read most articles describing the Veloster as quirky with its 3 doors. Some have even said it’s not fast. Let me debunk that theory. Quirky, no quite practical. Incredible cabin space, lots of vision to see out. In my day 0-60 was 6 seconds. Now it’s half that with certain 50k+ vehicles. This car looks great even sitting still, better when going fast. I used to race 90mph karts in Europe. This car feels like racing a kart with its quick handling, nice short shifter. Was nice to go from a vehicle that had just over 100hp to one that has 201. This car has the amenities that you want and need. It’s quick from my era of growing up. Replace the factory tyres with some stickier ones and wow what a difference it will make. I enjoy the long drives and getting close to 40mpg with A/C on.

My Blue Machine

A fun little sports car. I love the way it drives and definitely the automatic /manual stick. The aerodynamic and smooth body. My car came fully loaded, wonderful sound, and speakers. Love the different features. It hung, picks up, and smooth movement as it glides down the road. Love it!

Love my car!

Purchased a used 2016 (was used for corporate) and love it. It's a 3 door with a hatchback and surprisingly enough, has more space than expected or one would think viewing from the exterior. 2 full size seats in back with plenty of leg room - surprising!! It's a fun car that will fit 4 adults very nicely. However, on a trip, one would have to arm-wrestle my 17-lb pooch for the back seat as she loves her car also!!! However, she has told me, with the right person, she would gladly share. :)
