2017 Hyundai Veloster

Love this car!!!! Cute & Sporty. The interior is comfortable. The navigational system is spot on. The interior lights are perfect are night. I just wish the transmission didn't slip all the time.

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.

I Love it

The only thing that I find that that car needs is electric seats and the seat could be a little higher or have a electric seat lift and also the seat could be a lot more Cushing they are too hard especially when you go no a long trip like from Tucson to Ohio or Nwe Mexico there then that the car is great.

Terrible Dual Clutch Transmission

Great car except for the transmission. Slipping,Jerking,confused shifting,and Hyundai service people tell me that i dont understand how a transmission is supposed to work. After 40 + years of driving and working on transmissions and engines and cars in general i think i do understand. I doubt i will keep this car as long as i thought,i dont see the transmission lasting and i can see this coming-when the transmission gives out under warranty Hyundai will tell me it is a wear item that caused the transmission to die and is not covered by warranty-i can see this coming.With all the problems Hyundai has had with this Transmission i wish they would correct mine. Time will tell

Good Car

Like the car. Good gas mileage great handling. The transmission sucks. It has that ecomatic transmission which shifts poorly and jerks you around. Need to be careful getting on the highway because car has a tendency to hesitate

I like it

It has been getting good mileage, rides comfortably, and has great road feel–unlike other manufactures who seem to think there should be no road feedback. I suppose if it was self-driving I would like a no movement sensation, but I doubt it. I don't miss the driver-side back door, but sometimes wish the rear window could open up (maybe pivot from the front, instead of rolling dow), but that in no way detracts from the overall experience. The stereo system is great, and I like the "analog" controls over digital touchscreen for things such as volume and channel switching control.

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.

POWERFUL LITTLE CAR

I BROUGHT THIS CAR STRAIGHT OUT OF THE SHOWROOM, THE CAR CAME FULLY LOADED, EVERYTHING THAT I WAS LOOKING FOR IN A CAR. THE CAR HAS POWER, IT'S SPORTY AND JUST PERFECT FOR ME. THIS CAR CAN ACCOMODATE 3 PASSENGERS OR A CAR SEAT AND ONE ADDITIONAL PERSON IN THE BACK, IT'S A SMALL CAR WITH JUST ENOUGH TRUNK SPACE.

Clock

The clock in my Velostar quit working about a week ago. I was told when I went in for an oil change that Hyundai was aware of the problem. I really hope they rectify this soon. It is very aggravating not to have a working clock in my car.

A good overall vehicle

The car has a surprising amount of room for it's size. I am 6'4" and I actually have leg room and my legs also aren't hitting the steering wheel. The seats are also surprisingly comfortable. The rear seats fold down and there is a rubber mat that folds out to cover them which is nice when you need extra space. The car does lack in acceleration considering that it is advertised as being more sporty. I do wish the seat had an adjustable Lumbar support.

Wanted To Give Five Stars

Great looking vehicle, nice 4 cylinder engine with dual clutch system that provides Sport Shift and manual paddle shifting. Excellent sound system with subwoofer with separate amplifier. The only reason I didn't give the 5 stars is because it broke down on me and had to have a $2000 warranty repair. Both catalytic converters were replaced and the exhaust system and muffler. Not sure why this happened but it was a major inconvenience.

My Veloster

This is simply a great vehicle. My wife loves the appearance and in city handling. I would highly recommend this vehicle for its overall value and quality. The sound system is awesome and blue tooth compatibility works great. Fuel economy is also a positive. And simply fun to drive.

2017 Veloster

Good on gas. Would prefer a turbo for acceleration especially from 1st to 2nd gear. Love the body design. Wouldn't hurt to provide more room inside for future models. Better suspension for a smoother ride over bumps. Automatic back hatch would be better than the manual lift (must have key in hand). Hatch button on key would be better.

Small and fun

Very happy with my choice to buy the Hyundai Veloster. It's a small unique looking car. Easy to drive and easy to park in small spots in urban areas. Very nice features and fun style, plus 1excellent gas mileage! It does have a small engine compared to Elantra (it's the same as the ascent actually), but on freeway it goes, and around town you'll love the MPG! I'm so happy I chose the Veloster.

THIS CAR IS A LEMON on many important issues,BUT looks aren't any of them it really does look great too bad it ISN"T a great car!!!!

On looks alone, you'd definitely want this car, but DON"T be FOOLED! Pass it over if you wish to be happy! IT will not perform well, and you won't be comfortable in it. It will cost you a LOT of money on gas, it won't be easy to switch lanes in traffic on the freeway due to blind spots.

Hot Hatch Veloster

Love this car!! Reliable and responsive. Well built 32 miles per gallon at 80 mph on highway 5 Comfortable ride back seat not usable fo accommodate passengers. Check engine light comes on when fuel tank gets to half full and goes out when fill up. What is with that?

2017 Volester

the car is fun to drive, and fits the use I intended it for a second car for the wife and kids. shopping, school, kids camp. Looks sharp, handles well, the only issue we have is the slight hesitation at full acceleration. I plan to bring it to the dealer for this soon. Lee in Florence, sc.
