Used 2012 Hyundai Veloster 3dr Hatchback w/Gray Interior (1.6L 4cyl 6M) Consumer Reviews

Great car exterior, acceleration is horrible

I was loaned this car while my new car was in line for being certified and it was not until another week from Fox Honda until my car was ready to drive. Exterior aesthetics are really nice, that's when I began to drive it I notice it was quite under performing. Brief overview, acceleration is like those in a manual transmission car; even though this car has both dual-clutch and 5-speed auto transmission. Suspension is horrible if you have no intention of driving over potholes, so it will be a very bumpy ride unless you navigate around them. The tires are thin, which is expected on a sports car like this. The upside is that it has Bluetooth and I paired it with my phone quite easily. Car also is equipped with XM Sirius, FM, AM, CD disc changer and you can charge your iPod/iPhone via USB. The car also sports an AUX port if you want to go old-school with music that uses 3.5mm headphone jack. One neat thing about this is that once you remove the key, the dashlight comes on for a brief 10-15 seconds for you to grab your things and exit.
