Performance
The turbo generates 275 horsepower, propelling this small car quickly from zero to 60 miles per hour. Reviewers love this animated engine that can do the sprint just over or just under 5 seconds, depending on the transmission. Like many sports cars, it is most fuel efficient on the highway where the fuel economy is 27 or 28 miles per gallon, depending on the transmission. The drivetrain controls the front wheels. Hyundai is proud to offer a six-speed close-ratio manual transmission.
The smart automatic transmission is an eight-speed wet dual-clutch unit. Paddle shifters on the steering wheel let you enjoy manual shifting when you want to be in charge. With rev-matching, normal mode is smooth with fast shifts. Sport rev matching allows for quick RPM control.
In Sport Plus mode, rev-matching is more aggressive. It will downshift faster to maintain rpms. Car and Driver praises this ride’s “faithful steering”. Even better, you can tune your steering to lighter (normal), more resistance (sport), and maximum tightness for a track feel (Sport Plus).
Driving Dynamics
If you love to drive, the Veloster has the driving dynamics you’ll love. Car and Driver has praised the Veloster N for its “assured body control” and its “remarkable resistance to understeer.” They note that the Electronic Limited Slip Differential (eLSD) with torque vectoring, allows for cornering at higher speeds, indicating that “something magical is at play.”
There are seven chassis and powertrain settings that are controlled by the car’s customizable drive modes. This allows the driver to determine the response they like. Normal mode gives you that fuel efficiency and power you want on a commute. The suspension is tuned for everyday driving. The eLSD Normal mode improves cornering and reduces understeer. The Sport model speeds up the throttle response. and the eLSD is tuned for enhanced response. The Sport suspension setting increases damping, which sharpens handling. The Sport Plus mode has the fastest response from both the throttle and the horsepower. Sport-Plus directs the eLSD to give you more grip and allow more speed when cornering. The Sport-plus suspension mode creates maximum stiffness. If you haven’t tried this type of customized driving, you are going to love the Veloster N.
Exterior
The Veloster was made to stand out among small cars. Asymetrically styled, it’s third door is hidden, making it look like a coupe. The car wears gloss black accents on the grille. Standard exterior features include lightweight 19-inch alloy wheels and sharp LED headlights and taillight. Its Pirelli P Zero summer tires were made for it.
Exterior safety favorites include automatic headlight control, high beam assist, and a driver’s side blind-spot mirror.
The iconic sports car vibe is so strong that people don’t expect the hatchback. There’s 19.9 cubic feet in the hold, and that can be increased to 44.5 cubic feet. If you want the power of N but need a bigger car, we can recommend the 2022 Hyundai Elantra N.
