Nice small car

I really like my Hyundai Veloster. It's great on fuel and very comfortable to drive. What I'm not happy with is the extremely small window in the back; when looking in the rear view mirror, you don't look through the upper rear window, you only get to see out the small lower window. I find it restricts my view out the back quite a bit. If I had a cop behind me with lights on, I wouldn't be able to see that since the spoiler/ window separation hides that area behind the car. I always have to look at the side mirror to see more than two car-lengths behind my vehicle. Also, what I'm not fond of is the center console where the stereo and air controls are. It should be directed towards the driver, and the stereo system should include a CD deck. I really wasn't happy about that when I made the discovery after having bought the car. Other than that I'm happy with my Veloster.

Hyundai Veloster

I enjoy my car as far as the handling of it, my biggest complaint if you're not on a smooth Road it is very rough riding, would be nice if you had an option on having low profile tires are regular, I just don't think the looks of the low profile tires are worth compromising the ride I think that would make a big difference

Different

I would definitely change the way the car accelerates and shifts. It's also a very tiny 2 person car. It has 2 seats in the back, but really only 5 year olds would fit comfortably. The trunk is spacious, and I love my sunroof.

Buy the turbo..

I would recommend you by the turbo. At the dead stop, car takes a bit to catch. Leather seats might have been a better upgrade. No CD player for us old folks. Paint caught many minor scratches after a few washes..

2017 Hyundai Veloster Valve Edition

I think it definitely needs a lot more horse power (intake system upgrade) and a arm rest in the back seat also a back dome light that you can turn on and off. A much better stereo system maybe a Bose or Infinity would be nice.

Just average

I like noting about this car except the look of the car, should have done more research before I bought the car. there is no acceleration, the gas miles are not great. I actually spend more money in gas in this car than I did my 2013 Sonata.

Sport looking sedan

Clean looking sedan. Runs ok in automatic. Jerks a bit if you try to go fast. But just switch over to paddle shift and it will run great. I like all the smart electronic panel. Nice loud radio. Over all it's ok. For a single person. For a family of 4 not so much. The back is super small. The 3 door feature horrible. It's not made for tall people, or someone on the hefty side. I have also noticed that the seatbelts in the back get caught on it's guide. Not letting the seatbelt retract properly. I will call customer service and complain because that's a safety issue.

Clock and window seals

The clock stopped working and no one could tell me how to reset it on the phone. I am taking it in today. The exterior window seals on both driver and passenger sides have melted! I know it is summer, but my husband's 2018 Cruze sits right next to mine daily with no problems at all. Hyundai does not want to cover these under warranty even though my 2017 model has less than 17,000 miles on it. I like driving the car, but am unimpressed with Hyundai customer service.

Fun for the Money

Wish visibility better,i paint issues scratches way too easily , very noisy ride, Needs more safety features . Blind spot warning would be great. Keep it sporty and affordable. Would not buy again unless better visibility and safety features installed.

2017 Hyundai Veloster Turbo

The 2017 Hyundai Veloster Turbo is a cute car, with plenty of trunk space, and actually very comfortable to sit in the back seat. However, the car has NO power, does NOT accelerate well after turning a corner. The car acts like it wants to stall. The panoramic sun roof is very noisy when it is opened. The engine does NOT have a powerful sound, when revved. I traded a 2012 Hyndai Genesis Coupe, for this Hyundai Veloster that I should have kept.

Love this car

Love this car but hate the transmission in it, the only complaint about this car is the transmission, it hesitates all the time off the line, which is dangerous when going through an intersection. Should be recalled and replaced.

Too bad about Tranny

Would b much better if transmission was safe and consistent the interior works well I am over 6’4” and quite comfortable. Controls are intuitive easy to reach and use. Build quality is good and did have to have some minor repairs to body from speed bump issues at parking garages front bumper scrapes easily and tore twice.

Veloster

I love my compact red sporty car. I compromised between price and getting the most features for comfort and safety. The one problem is that I have to buy a spare tire as it is not included.

New Veloster turbo

My new Veloster Turbo is a lot of car for the money. A fun amount of power. Good fuel economy. Above average electronics. The back door only on the passenger side is unique. Seats are very comfortable. Sunroof is huge. The automatic is not smooth enough from a stop. Paddle shifters are very cool.

I love it no matter what.

I was driving my old car, thinking I would buy a Jeep Renegade next, when a Hyundai Veloster pulled in front of me and I had to know what car was that! I drove as close as I could read its model. I fell in love with its design; It looks sportish and light. I checked it out online and I thought it was more than I was looking for, and the best value for its price. Very low in gas, hybrid transmission, and it has more room inside than one would think, it actually feels very spacious and it has a third door that makes it so easy for the people in the rear seats. I had compared it with the Honda CR, but the CR is actually for 2 people, because the back sits must have been designed for people with no legs. I now fit in every parking spot, and I love the wide angle rear camera. It will not be the fastest without knowing how to drive it in Sports mode, by using the paddles on the wheel, but after I had an accident, I lost that thrill. It has security bags everywhere, and the dashboard is so fancy and the sun roof is such a cool bonus. Plus the maintenance deal Hyundai offers has no match. I love to recommend this car.
