Veloster Ultimate with navigation
Love this car! Hugs the road and gets excellent gas mileage! Really love to drive this on narrow roads/bridges. Has a lot of power for in the mountains! Fun to drive! If you are older, like us, in our 70's, it is a little harder to get in and out of due to it being lower since it is a sports car.

Fun to drive, Love the sport mode. Has a lot of built in features.

Cons
A little difficult to get into and out since we are in our 70's. Had a bulge on the tire and it took 3 weeks for them to replace it. - Mirrors are wrinkled - Don't know why - are the wires getting too hot and melted the plastic? - Company is giving us a hard time with this since they have never seen it happen before.

When you upgrade your car, and its worse than your old vehicle.
I had a 2016 Veloster (non-turbo) top of the line car. It was perfect and never had a problem, minus a bag getting stuck under. When the new 2019 Veloster R-Spec came out, I was excited to upgrade. I never had an awful experience with Hyundai and was expecting the high customer service as I had when I bought my 2016. Now having owned my 2019, I had a clutch break on me (took over a month to fix and only had a rental for 2 weeks), now having clicking noises when I turn my steering wheel after the clutch was replaced, and a rattling in my passenger door when I drive. I also had extreme difficulty trying to reach the service bay when my car was in the shop. I don't know what has happened but even when I purchased my 2019 Veloster N, it took over 4 months to get my plates and had to get it fixed because they broke the bumper when unloading it and took over 2 months to get it to me. I had great respect for them as a dealership, and with their warranty, as I was treated highly with my 2016, but once upgrading I don't know if I would go back and purchase.

The Red Bomb
For the price, The Bomb can't be beat. Just wish the ride and road noise was not so irritating. The Bomb is really fun to drive. I enjoy the being able to manually shift the transmission if I want. This bomb is a real road hugger. I guess you can tell I purchased it for the handling.

Pros
Price/performance with regular gas and early/flat torque is magnificent. Trunk space ended up being just right and not a problem for hauling and groceries. Small chassis is ridiculously versatile in street maneuver and park situations over a normal sedan. Gives feel of the road and car, other options particularly Jetta GLI has too much computer between car and driver. Surprised at precision of lower gears for maintaining gas mileage on highly variable speed commutes, struck me as unnecessary rowing through gears until I had that experience. Safety features already paid off in avoiding an accident, major reason I wanted to buy new.

Cons
Camera/entertainment display screen is intrusive and ugly. Shocker on the 3700 mile maintenance cycle, modern vehicles aspiring to compete with VW & Honda & Mazda in this affordable sport commuter segment should be higher. Ceiling and seat issues make this less a 3-person car and more a 2.5-person car. The hatch should be more hatchback for hauling backseat down loads.

Veloster Ultimate Turbo 2019
This is my second Veloster - I previously owned a 2014. This car has about a dozen improvements over the previous car; things such as a better engine sound; better radio sound; more safety features, etc. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a car this size.

Pros
Available in a stick; spare tire (not an inflation kit); Good gas milage and fuel tank size; Several safety features and more.

Veloster
Veloster is fun to drive, gets much better fuel economy than expected. A little hard to get into and out of but that’s probably due more to my age and being used to a vehicle that sat higher. After one year’s ownership it has been reliable. I’ve been very happy with my choice.

Disappointed with the quality of the 2019
I'm disappointed with the quality of the 2019 Veloster. First of all, they changed the body style too much. Not as unique as the 2016. Then the bad censors & door latch problems started. I never had any of those problems with my 2016. They did however, address the interior air-flow issues, and redesigned the dashboard. Those changes I love! It also does not lose power with the AC on like the 2016 did. This model gets up & goes when you need it!

Pros
Great gas mileage, picks up & goes when you need it. More power than the 2016.

Looks are nice. I really wanted a hybrid--a sporty hybrid, which I could not find. I do not like all the "techiness". It is distracting and why do I have to spend a whole day trying to figure it all out!!!!!!!! Why can't you put a cd player in the car???

Love my 2019 Base 2.0 Auto Veloster!!
This car is a delight to drive! It makes my daily driving (over 100 miles a day, over 40,000 miles a year) a whole lot of fun. It’s very sporty when I want it to be, and it’s a long haul grand tourer when it needs to be. And then there is the VALUE on top of that. With the average new car price at >$36,000, I got this brand new for exactly HALF that price. Unbelievable car even not counting the value. And the styling plus utility make this THE CAR for me! And as far as quality and reliability, IT IS BULLET PROOF!

Excellent Value
Soon after purchasing a 2019 Hyundai Accent Premium and driving it for a week, I made the mistake of vising the dealer for a few questions I had with the purchase papers and then...I noticed the new Veloster available at the show room. My sales consultant asked If I wished to test drive one and I said YES!. Soon after the test drive and completely impressed with the car, I signed the papers for the Veloster.

Cons
Driver's seat lacks lumbar support and door exit handle. Passenger seat lacks height adjustments and lumbar support. Rear passenger door lacks exit handle.
Cabin interior noise could be improved if the chassis was better insulated to minimize road noise. Better tires offered with the vehicle could also help minimize the road noise.
