I love my car.

Before I bought the Veloster in March 2017, I had admired it from afar and asked a couple of people I met what they thought of theirs. They ALL got googly-eyed and said, "I love my car." I thought that was odd but now I understand. It is not the fastest in terms of pickup and acceleration, but it runs well, has given me not one minute of worry in almost 2 years (until rodents chewed on the main wiring harness). The seating capacity is limited and maybe a little unusual, with that oddball third door, but it's perfect for me and my 3 dogs. It looks spiffy and has all the bells and whistles I want, including a panoramic sun roof. that may sound shallow, but previous vehicles that I researched diligently failed prematurely, and this one is sailing right along.

Great car hampered by the Safety related issues I have suffereed with the 7sp DCT.

This is my second VT. The first was with a 2013 manual and it did everything to my satisfaction. Great car! I then purchased my current 2016 VT with DCT and have suffered numerous scares by numerous intermittent performance failures of thee DCT. Examples include: While in Drive and foot off of gas, engine starts racing in neutraL ; While in Drive and at a slow speed, transmission fails to downshift when going up a steep hill ; While in drive and starting off from a start, transmission locks in 1st gear ; While in drive and starting off from a very slow speed, car takes off then stalls ; When in Reverse and giving it gas from a rooling start, it either jumps back or stalls out. Except for the DCT, it is an excellent car!

It’s still a Hyundai

Good value for the money but you get what you pay for, the car comes with cheap economy tires, I recommend upgrading to better tires and proper winter tires for any cold regions. There are a lot of little things inside the car that are annoying like the rattles on the doors when listening to music, and the dashboard rattling while driving sometimes.

This was the type of car I had been wanting and decided to purchase. Like the smooth ride. The elite white color turned out to be a nice color overall. Enjoy the length of time between gassing up. .

Hyundai Veloster Turbo

Good gas millage. Pleasure to drive. Great pickup and very easy handleing. Car is perfect in every way. Will ramble on so to make up 200 words so the survey will be complete. Very happy with the car and the service from Red Hogeland Dealership in Winter Haven on Cypress Gardens Boulevard. Hope this is 200 caracters now.

Love my Veloster

Serviced at 22,000 miles. Love this car! Great Service I have come to expect from the dealership. Great gas mileage for someone who has a heavy foot. Carries 3 passengers well, and has lots of storage space.

2016 Veloster

Just purchased this vehicle and at this point I am totally satisfied. Enjoy the pep in acceleration and the many bells and whistles on this car. Just drove it to KC from Iowa and it performed well. The turbo really makes a difference. The interior is very comfortable. Fun to drive!

2016 Hyundai Veloster Turbo (sans Tech package and sunroof)

My thoughts on this car after 2 years and 25k miles: still loving it. There are a few design flaws, like rear visibility (rear window is poorly positioned so the mirror shows you the spoiler and little else.) The factory tyres didn't last anywhere near as long as I expected, considering their grip levels (about 22k) but I have high hopes for my chosen replacements after reading some of the tyre reviews. Wish there was just a little more engine/exhaust noise - sound insulation is probably just a little too good for my taste. Touch screen is too bright at night, even at its lowest setting. And finally, the centre exhaust means lots of steam on cold mornings directly below the middle of the rear window, fogging it up with condensation instantly until the exhaust finally warms up. Rear seat is so small as to be virtually unusable except for small children or emergencies (not a problem for me, though.) But these are small niggles. Overall, it's a lot of fun to row through the gears. Fast enough to play with, not so fast that it's hard to control. No problems with driving in snow. Comfortable - I've done 12 hours at a stretch with no back issues or unusual amounts of tiredness. Handles well - firmer suspension that some would prefer, but that's how I like it. Overall, very happy with it - and expecting to keep it for many years to come.

2016 Veloster

I do not like the slip differential transmission. Car will almost stop when idling up to a stop. He will also hesitate when you accelerate from a stop position. Once you are moving the cars performs well. Handles great.

‘16 Rally Edition

The Rally Edition is all about 2 things: the suspension, and the paint job. I still get heads to turn on the highway with the matte blue paint job. Everyone always asks, “Is that a wrap?” No, that is the standard paint job, standard Ray’s wheels, and it’s a 6 speed manual with Turbo. When you take it around the curves on the highway, you will know the suspension is worth it when you sink into the turn with ease. You won’t feel like you’re about to fly out of the turn with the centrifugal force. The top speed I got to was 141 on a good autum day, cruising around a curve. Sitting in at just over 200 hp, it isn’t as beefy as the new 2019 N model, but it sure does look great.

My Veloster experience!

This is the second Veloster I’ve owned, my wife has also had 2 Velosters. They are a great bang for the buck. Unique styling, decent performance and reliable. I would definitely recommend one for purchase or lease.

Ok to drive and fuel economy is good

Reliability is good drive ability is good fuel economy is good, but when I wanted to trade it in for the next year model after only having the car for 7 months it had dropped in value by 60 per cent, I thought this was very unusual for a car to drop that much so fast the car had only been driven approximately 2700 miles.

Love my Veloster!

Great gas mileage, zippy, roomy for a compact and with a sporty style! I got the high end package on the nonturbo version. I didn't like the front end of the turbo or I would have gotten that. They've improved that on the newer models, though.

2016 veloster

really like my car. i have owned many hyundais and they have all treated me pretty well. They have been dependable, durable and most have been fun to drive. A recent experience and a realization of how you can be used in the car business, will bring an end to my relationship with both edmond hyundai and hyundai in general. Too bad, it was a good run for close to 20 years!
