The Hyundai Veloster feels more comfortable around high-performance street bikes than it does other hatchbacks. So go ahead and launch from that stoplight. Carve those corners on that winding country road. Choose from six models starting with the 2.0 Base and moving through the wickedly potent Veloster N. Three engines are available: two are turbocharged and one puts out 275 horsepower. A seven-speed dual-clutch transmission is available but the Veloster is one of the few cars you can still get with a standard six-speed manual gearbox. And all Velosters come with Torque Vectoring Control. With almost 110 cubic feet of total interior space your Veloster is as comfortable as it is exciting. And almost twenty of those cubic feet are behind the rear seats so there’s plenty of room for four passengers and their gear. With technology that ranges from Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration to Hyundai Safety Sense features like Lane Keeping Assist and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist you’ll stay connected and protected. Choose from a variety of colors options and accessories and build a Veloster that’s all yours. The Hyundai Veloster. Drivers start your adrenaline.
