Top 10 Things You Need to Know About the New 2019 Hyundai Veloster 

Ravi Peiris it only make 1 more hp that 1st gen lmao!!!!

Christopher G Man I'm considering trading my Civic Hatch Sport 6MT for the Veloster N. Wish they brought the i30 N to the States. I would be in hot hatch heaven!

DoubleDown I personally think the i30n would fit better for the United States. If the Veloster N isn't a crazy price then I'll look into it. I was about to pull the trigger on a ford Focus ST but they have relibabilty problems. Hopefully Hyundai get it right. I'd like to see a starting price of $28 for the N like the ST. It doesn't compare with the civic hatch so I hope they don't make it $38k

Probably when it comes out

Barcelona Toyota should be low 30k. They know the market they are competing in

yes, it is

Nice meeting you as well!

James Hall you need medication

I have ocd but that doesn't really bother me that much Can you explain to me how it is with you?

Nathan Bickel do you know what is the first song? Thank you

Good idea. We’ll suggest it to Paul 😉

We need Pittsburgh AutoVlog to test it to show it's amphibious or hydrolockability qualities.

There are Civic hatchbacks imported to USDM from Swindon, UK from mild to wild (Type R). Only thing they're 5 doors.

syxepop yeah, I meant no Civic Si hatch, so need to downgrade to a Sport or upgrade to an R.

Affalterbach 1967 Civic R is a nice hot hatch, but it’s kinda pricey for an econobox based car. They sell for almost $40K in many dealerships. And the styling is a bit too crazy for many “mature” drivers seeking a fun and reliable hot hatch. But then again, a loaded vw GTI lists for $37K and is nowhere near as capable or reliable as a civic R.

Normally those kind of "hot compacts" (include the Subie STi and the late Mitsu Evo in that league) are NOT MEANT FOR ANY MATURE DRIVERS, even if they can afford them. They're made for AFFLUENT YOUNGER DRIVERS who "wanna be Fast And Furious" or part of the "tuner crowd" without getting their hands dirty. They won't certainly mid the Civic XII's "wild child styling". Honda's bigwigs also wanted to "get back the tuner crowd" with the Civic's styling that they finally lost when the Acura Integra went upscale. If you understand this mentality you'll understand, even if you don't like the reasoning for that styling.

I have owned 3 Velosters, love the 3 door anomily

Echo DotDR , actually I’m guessing the N will go for 30K or less. If you’ve looked at the videos of its interior it is simple and doesn’t have the options that would inflate the price tag. There are no power seats, no leather, no navigation, no sunroof etc, so I’m pretty sure Hyundai is pricing this under 30K.

much nicer lol

Echo DotDR The vw GTI is nice, but a loaded GTI in the US lists for $37,000 and mark my words the Veloster N will blow it out of the water and will likely cost less. And consider that vw products have never been known for being reliable while Genesis/Hyundai/Kia products rank at the top of the reliability and quality rankings. I think Roman said the turbo R model lists for $23K.

the top of the line turbo is 27k, the r-spec turbo which is the performance manual is 22k, and the auto is just over 24k, idk where he got the 29k figure from

thats the top of the line. You can get the r-spec turbo (with cool black rims and summer michelin pilot sport 4 tires and a manual) for 24k . Or the 7 speed duel clutch auto turbo with pretty bad all season tires (faster then the r-spec stick shift even with its bad all season tires) for 26k. All the Ultimate package adds are leather seats (white interior from this video), lame glass HUD and a premium sound system. Thats about it buddy.

Julian Rada I think it’s a cool, funky pocket rocket for people looking for something different and unique yet sporty. I’m always happy when we car buyers have more options. I mean ford said their discontinuing all sedans and hatches in the US (except the mustang) to focus on CUV/SUV/trucks. That seems crazy for a major mainstream manufacturer. I’m really looking forward to the Veloster N reviews.

Leadfoot2112 yes lol

That's the dumbest shit I've ever seen , give me dump pipes and electric cutouts instead of a recording playing through the speakers

Leadfoot2112 the N has exhaust cutouts that are electronically controlled

Leadfoot2112 just like GMC

what is N

Vince...if you have to have a RWD small hatch, I think the BMW 1-series is your only choice in the world.

Roger...I was just trying to configure the Civic Si Coupe. I got it to just under 28K. But you don't get leather seats, auto, and many other things that the Veloster Ultimate has. You're right about it being bigger, tho.

Rueben Aguirre I have a ‘13 VT and it rips, it gets hate but a 2800lb car with 200hp and 195lb-ft torque, it moves, gaps BRZs

Genesis is their own brand now...

Still made by Hyundai.

This is 5sec faster than Elantra Turbo at 200km acceleration test

FYI Genesis is making a coupe for 2020.

Probably midway between the Infiniti Q60 (Skyline Coupé or Infiniti's Fairlady Z 2+2) and the Lexus LC500.
