Let me start by saying that for the most part, the reviews on these wicked little cars are true. Living in Oklahoma, I can personally guarantee the ride quality is less than perfect. I also have several vertically inclined comrades, making the backseat a little tight in the headroom department. That being said, this wonderful disaster of a machine does exactly what it was designed to do. Don't expect the rear passenger volume and ride quality of a plush family sedan. The inspiration for Veloster isn't derived from the soul of other hot hatch, instead from that of a sports bike. It's driving dynamics tell that story very well. She's very quick to roast the tires (1st and 2nd gear), smack your head on the headrest, give you some truly wild cornering (thanks to the turbo's torque vectoring control), all while piping a modest amount of that rude engine/exhaust note through Veloster's 450 watt sound system. I searched car after car before I found Veloster. Cars I just knew I was going to buy. Mazda 3, Nissan Sentra SR, and even the Dodge Dart GT. All of these are great cars, but... Shortly after I entered the two-tone leather appointed cabin, opened the nearly entire roof's worth of sunroof, mashed the gas pedal, and dumped that buttery clutch... I fell in love with that feeling. A feeling no car I was considering could provide. Finally, take into consideration what you need this car for and where or how you'll be using it. Take an extended test drive if possible and really decide if this car was made for you. It didn't take me long to figure out it was made for me.

I bought my veloster turbo a couple of months ago and thought it was time for a review. I have never been disappointed in this car and I love the way it drives. I average about 34mpg combined! And I still have enough power to accelerate and pass when I need to. The sound system is pretty good especially on xm radio. There is plenty of trunk space, especially with the back seats down. Everyone looks at my car as I roll by and I have not seen another veloster turbo in nor cal since I have bought it. I love that this car is really uncommon. From a stop, the car will pull you back into the seat as you race the engine! If youre looking for an economical car with some power, this is it!

Fun to drive, annoying to maintain

I owned the car for two years now and my overall opinion is it is a fun car to drive around and open up every now and then but I'm becoming increasingly annoyed with how often the car develops minor problems. This is the second winter in a row where the clock fails to keep the time after the car is shut off. I have taken it to the dealer before and they fixed it the next day with no problem. One year later, I am having the same problem! The infotainment system is laughably pathetic. I've had nothing but issues with it. After a year of owning the car, I've had numerous incidents where the whole system would lock up and fail to turn off or restart. A few months later, I noticed the left tweeter died. Shortly after, the right tweeter died. After four or five trips to the dealer who couldn't figure out the problem, they finally determined the amp was at fault and they replaced it. I am not one to blast music- the volume never really gets above 12 on the car so please don't think that I just blast the music all the time then complain when the speakers stop working... Aside from the infotainment, the windscreen area squeaks and creaks incredibly loud when the temperature drops below about 50 Fahrenheit. I have tried many times to remedy the problem with felt tape around the cowl area but have only had marginal success. This car is really not a fan of the cold! Overall, I would recommend this car to someone who lives in a warm climate and doesn't mind a peaky engine. (The car has no trouble going from a rolling start up to high speeds in no time, but from a dead stop, you will notice a significant lag in power.) This may be the car for you if you want random people on the street commenting on your "cool little car" and asking "how do you like that thing?" It really does a good job at catching eyes of passerby's but has sadly lost my interest after 2 years of ownership.

Enjoyable little car which is fun to drive

If you purchased a Veloster expecting it to be anything other than what it is, you deluded yourself. Blaming the car for your unrealistic expectations is weak minded and petty. I've had mine for about a year and a half. I still look back at it every time I park it. I've put about 22,000 miles on it. It never gets boring or unfun to drive. In the time I've had it, I've had one warranty problem. The fan motor switch went bad. The local dealership replaced it in less than an hour. I upgraded the air intake with a K&N air filter. Which helped the throttle response quite a bit. I recently replaced the OEM tires at 48,000 miles with Indy Firehawk 500s. Size 225/40R18. The new tires did drop my fuel mileage a little. But it is easy to compensate for this. Road noise is a common complaint with this car. But if you want to be completely isolated from the road while driving, that's your loss. Fuel mileage is phenomenal! I average 20-30 mpg around town in stop and go driving with sensible driving habits. On the highway I have no problem achieving and sustaining 40-50 mpg. Again with sensible driving habits. Even when I get on the throttle, the fuel mileage only drops by 5-10 mpg. The car does not disappoint when being driven with spirit within its limits. Which obviously are not those of a Corvette or Ferrari, lol. One of the other reasons I purchased a Veloster was it does not look like every other hatchback. Different is always good! In summation, I am very pleased with the car and I fully intend to keep it until I pay it off. There is little I would change about it. And to be fair, those changes I would make are minor enough to be insignificant to most people.

I've had mine for a little over a year now, and still love it. It has some small quirks that are easy to fix with a bit of aftermarket, so the car is FANTASTIC if that's your thing. Easy to add power and handling capabilities, and the car takes them well. At 1 year of ownership, still have had zero mechanical problems that have sent me to the dealer. The car is fun and comfortable for cross-country driving, too. The MPG estimate is also pretty conservative, I average higher than EPA estimates.

I would advise a potential buyer of a Veloster to lower your expectations and appreciate the car for what it is, not dwell on what it is not. My car has all the bells and whistles of my 2012 Optima in a smaller package. It is comfortable, easy to maneuver, convenient for schlepping, and great looking. Someone wiser than I once said it's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow. My only reservation is the iPod shuffle performance. It must be reset about once a month, and likes to default to "reading" about once a week. Other than that, I am delighted with my purchase.

My turbo listed for over 26K and I got it for under 21K. It has plenty of power and a very wide powerband so you don't have to worry much about passing. The interior has some hard plastic, but it looks nice. Seats are super comfy and supportive. So many features for a car priced at this point. The headroom with the sunroof can be tight for taller people. The car handles very well. It is better at higher speeds (80mph) than my old Infiniti G37xS, which was a very nice car. The only gripe I see is the torsion bar rear suspension. It handle very nicely, but it is a back-cracker over potholes. This car is much better than normal on smooth roads, and much worse than average on potholed roads. As far as frozen windshields go--use an ice scraper! Is this the first time you've encountered this? I've lived in Cleveland, Buffalo, Minneapolis, Minot, and Omaha. Every car is gonna need an ice scraper. You can put a block heater into it like we do in the north and that will help. You can also use the Bluelink to start the car with your phone to warm it up. Make sure you have the defroster on and the temp on high when you turn it off the night before. Overall, for what you pay, you get an absolutely awesome little hot rod that is so functional! How many other turbos run on 87 octane gas?

I bought used cars from 1988 until 2014 when I purchased the Voloster. The test drive wasn't long enough. Once I sat in the car for about one hour I notice the sport seat was just too small and made my drive uncomfortable. I loved the car but hated the seat! It was so uncomfortable I traded it in just 11 months. Never have I done anything that crazy but I needed comfort. If the car had a better seat I would still have it due to all the great features and gas mileage!

The Veloster Turbo is a fun fuel efficient car to drive. With horsepower of 201 it passes like a car with a V8. The cornering and handling seem to be from a much more expensive car. Hyundai did a great job on the exterior design, While shopping I was looking at 2 door coupes like the KIA Forte, Hyundai Elantra and Honda coupes. I saw my first Veloster in the lot after test driving the Elantra Coupe and ask the salesman what it was. I noticed that a couple had turbo badges on them and said why not take it for a test drive, who knows. Needless to say this was the car for me.I can see the Veloster becoming a cult classic of the fast and furious types.

Our family loved my 2014 Veloster so much we went back and got the 2015 Matte Grey for my 18 year old daughter when she graduated high school. We are seriously considering getting the 2016 Matte Blue next. We do live in Florida so we don't have to worry about snow, so can't speak to the other review complaining about the snow but you can preheat the vehicle by remote on some models I think. Anyway we love, love, love this car!

Purchased new in 2014. I have less than 35,000 miles on it. Sunroof frame cracked and had to be replaced. Steering column had clicking noise and had to have a piece replaced. Overhead sunglass holder broke because of cheap plastic. Trunk release broke. Backup camera broke. Whether seal around hatchback had to be resealed and still coming off. Road noise is unbearable when on the highway. Metal on the car is so thin if someone just touches their car door to it, it will dent. Even a small rock will dent it. When putting it into reverse it will hesitate and sometimes you have to put it back into park and then back to reverse before it will engage. This car is only driven back and forth to work and garaged most of the time. It is falling apart! I know I will never own another Hyundai! Dealership and company won't do anything. I know the warranty has expired but these issues shouldn't be happening on any vehicle with this low of miles. Dealership and Hyundai have lost my business forever.

It is a great car but is inexpensively made especially in flooring. I did have to replace the clutch after 24K miles...and I have driven manual shifts for 30 years and never had to do that before.

This is gonna be long. My 2015 turbo veloster is awesome! Im married n have two younger boys. Got it with 42 miles on it. Made it to 53k so far and most of that is CA Bay areas horrible roads and many Disney trips. At 50k i had alittle heart attack at a stop light when the car started idling ruff for maybe 10 seconds then shut off on me n the oil light and battery light were on. I pushed the car to the side of the road. Checked oil and everything was fine. No leaks no crazy noises. So i started the car and never happened to me again. And no codes have showed up on my OBD. Got the oil changed and put new tires. During alignment i notices my two front ball joints are shot and all my shocks have leaked out. Which explained why it got so bouncy at about 45k. So the car is amazing and warranty is great. Just your regular wear and tear on ridiculous roads haha. And as long as I'm not in it and using Cruise Control going up these mountains to Disney i get great MPG!

I purchased the Veloster Tubo and began to have issues shortly thereafter. The car would sometimes have a delay and eventually cut off on me. I took it to the dealer several times before they finally agreed to try something. The car continued to have issues afterwards. I changed my spark plugs according to the manufacturers guidelines. The car was burning around a quart of oil every 5K miles, and I wouldn't have known that if I hadn't stopped using the dealer and began to change it myself. Around 85K my car began to have more serious issues. I took it to my dealer and they said it was probably the spark plugs. I changed them and the coil packs. This fixed my car temporarily. Now I no longer have a warranty and I am getting the P3001 piston 1 missfiring. The engine is backfiring making it undrivable. This is by far the worst car I've ever owned and the worst car company I've dealt with. They did nothing to resolve the problem so the warranty is worthless just like this vehicle. I, nor my family and friends, will ever by another Hyundai.

Purchased new in 2014. Only changes are K&N Typhoon air intake and a new set of Michelin Pilot.Sport tires after a set of Continentals and the not so great Kumhos that were the stock set. Use Mobil 1 5W-30 full synthetic, top of the line Wix oil filter, and burn only Sunoco Ultra 93 fuel with an occasional dose off Lucas injector cleaner. Also change the cabin air filter when necessary. No problems of any kind after 6 years. Have about 64,000 miles on it but it still runs great. Average 33 mpg but don't hammer the throttle too often or corner at excessive speed. All in all, one of the best vehicles I've ever owned. Lots of compliments from lookers and people who have ridden in it.

Nice features and beautiful car. 50k on the car. 8 years old Even though has very good rear view back up camera, the sides at the rear hatchback area quarter panel are major blind spots the camera does not pick up and should be glass. Also the wind shield trim at the sides is too wide as creates a blind spot too. The rear hatch back door opener is a joke. First I cannot understand why you cannot open the hatch back from the driver compartment, and the rubber opener outside on the hatchback door you press deteriorates, rendering the rear open feature useless with no other way to unlock unless you crawl to the very back to pull the emergency lever opener. front door is way too long and creates problems getting out in tight parking spots like a larger truck, kind of strange for such a small car. 4 shorter doors are better. sun glass holder push and open style already is broken, spring latch is more dependable or some other style. Warranty sounds great but is a bit of joke too, my transmission gave out at 49k, Was well within the drivetrain 100000 10 year warranty but hyundai first claimed I was not the original owner so warranty was null and void. I bought the car new, gave them the paper work to prove it. Could not figure out how they came to the conclusion I wasn't the original owner. Even after I proved I was the original owner it still took them 7.5 months to get my car back on the road, nothing but run around from hyundai to me and the dealership. No help from them at all. Horrible service. I once had to get some items out of my car while it was at the dealers as I did not expect it to be there that long. While the service advisor was walking me to where my car was parked, he showed me 4 other velosters with transmission problems, one was brand new that conked out on a test drive! It seems like hyundai is having problems they do not want to own up to. After I get the car back finally, it stalls in the middle of an intersection during rush hour. Had to get it towed back, turned out to be a faulty crankshaft sensor. Now it is running fine but the touch screen does not work, dealer said the radio component failed and needs a whole new info center. Unreal. That is why I give it 2 stars. Lousy transmission, lousy warranty service from Hyundai and too many parts breaking after only 50K on the car. The tires that come stock on the car are junk too. I was getting major drift on straight roads, kept me on my toes when driving. The steering alignment checked out, when I had to replace the tires presto no more drift. Other than that it is nice.... if you keep it about 40k

The veloster is by far the unsafe car I've driven. Above 40mph you will feel loss of control when going through rumble potholes or road pavement dividers on the highway especially on curves. Worst when wet. Tires and design of car is the worst combination. When humidity or frozen windshield forget about rushing. Must run the car for at least 15 minutes before it becomes clear. The power seriously sucks. Please don't buy if you are one who cuts in into traffic especially during on ramp merges. Plain and simple this car don't belong in the north east only down south like Florida. Won't last in New York City.

If this isn't the best car for the money than I guess im wrong. For real I am so dang satisfied with this mini beast that I don't really know where to start. Tech yes. Driveability yes. Acceleration yes. Handling yes. I see challengers mustangs and camaros looking over like [non-permissible content removed] that thing is cool. I step on it and once that turbo lag is gone I am too. If I can say one thing... Natural aspirated veloster is my other car but turbo is where it's at! I've put 10k miles on a turbo with 25k

I, along with my Sister, my niece and my friend drove 14 miles to the beach from my mother’s residence. After, we decided to drive back to my mothers residence. While driving on the freeway with my sister, my niece and my friend, going 70mph I started to smell smoke, shortly after that I heard a clunking sound followed by a popping sound come from underneath my car. Then my check engine light along with my engine oil pressure light began to flash. Shortly, a burnt smell completely filled the inside of my car. As I began to pull over the brake peddle locked in the up position and was not able to be pressed down to the floor. After, I pulled the emergency brake causing my car to spin in an 180 degree angle. My friend and I got out of my car, leaving all of our personal belongings and pushed the car to the shoulder of the nearest exit. When I attempted to open the hood white smoke and flames shot from underneath. My sister immediately grabbed my niece and after that we all ran to a safe distance incase of an explosion. An off duty officer immediately called Highway Patrol after witnessing the entire incident. The fire department came and put out the fire. Next, Highway Patrol came, they did not write an incident report but they ensured our safety. Then finally the tow truck came and took my completely burnt vehicle to the tow yard.

For over three years I have had intermittent starting problems with my 2014 Veloster. I have had it back to the dealership numerous times and been charge a diagnostic fee for finding nothing. I replaced the battery (at my cost) which didn't solve the problem. When it took it back they have replaced the alternator, fuse box computer, & corroded wires, had the vehicle for at least a week at a time and are telling me it's my fault because 1. I don't shut it off properly. 2. I "play" with the fuse switch. 3. I don't drive it enough. Now they are telling me there are NO cranking amps in the battery and it needs to be replaced at my cost AGAIN. They have completely ignored me when I tell them that the CD player has stayed on all night. The dash display stays on all night or won't come on at start up. The radio re-sets the stations, the clock re-sets to 12:00 every time it is shut off, sometimes the dash display works sometimes not and it will often start after trying to crank it three or four times but only if the dash display energizes. It also on occasion decides to lock me out completely and not recognize the key fob. I can drive it for a half an hour, do my shopping and come out to find it dead. I can put the battery on a trickle charge for 48 hours and it reads charged, but the car won't start the first time. After two or three tries it might start. Otherwise a quick boost and it starts immediately, no waiting for it to charge up. The dealership couldn't care less even though it did the same thing to the service technician the second last time it took it there. The car was warm and driven for 40 min. but it wouldn't start for him first time. Took three or four tries, yet now I get this it needs a new battery jive. I'm feed up with the attitude that I'm some stupid woman who doesn't know the difference between a dead battery and a dead short to ground that is causing all these electrical problems. I will take the battery back to where I bought it and have it tested.

I own a 2014 hyundai veloster & after owning previously two other reliable hyundai cars, I have to admit this is a reliable car but it is also really annoying! My friends and i have complained that the door is too heavy ( it is the weight heavier than a truck door!) and when you swing it open if it is too pushed hard-it hits other cars or slams too wide, and when opened with normal verocity ( it swings back for a bit then squishes your leg), a lot of people i know have complained! Secondly, the car is TOO WIDE- it is impossible to park in a small compact space, even though this car looks compact and small. The designers and makers of this car were clearly not smart.

I replaced the turbo twice within the past 2 years.its a daily driver but im not racing buy no means. I drive safe and carefully. The highest speed i have drove in this car is 85mph. I have spent about 5k in repairs with my local mechanical shop. I took it to my local hyundai dealer and the price for the se maintenance was much higher. I'm pretty sure i will never i mean never get another hyundai ever in my life. Alot of people may think well its how you drive and maintain your car for it to last. I got regular on time maintenance work done. Tires rotated, oil change, belts changed, bearings changed , and even just make sure the car is good checks. Man this is ridiculous and just plan out fuatrating. I owe 3k on my 2014 veloster and has spent 5k when i initially bought it for 10,500. I even purchased the extended powertrain motor combo warrenty for 2k. I feel as of now, i should be able to sue or perhaps get the police involve. Yea it should be against the law to have to maintain a car thats not even worth that much. I cant believe this is the world we live in. 8k to replace a motor. That havent even reached 200k miles. Are you kidding me with these good reviews. Give it sometime and you will see. Dont do it. I feel like i need to start a protest to ban hyundai for making anymore cars or at least give the people there money back. Smdh

handles well, grips on corners. Accelerates fast. Electronics work slow and intermittently.

We have had our veloster for approx. 100k miles now. We purchased it with like 6000 miles on it so of course the warranty was voided due to that. Anyways so far we have dumped thousands of dollars into this uncomfortable hunk of junk. The cheapest one was changing the headlight bulb. The front bumper has to be dropped just to get enough space to change the bulb itself. Then around 70k miles the turbo goes out. This was several thousand dollars to get repaired, and ever since then now the car is going through alot of oil. We're now just over 100k miles and the heating system no longer works. Another 1000 dollars. Just these few things alone are enough for me not to buy another hyundai or to ever refer my family or friends to buy one. Other reasons I would not recommend buying this car is that it is a pretty loud and rough ride. You will feel every bump on the road. There is no space in the back seat for passengers. Overall the quality of this vehicle is poor, and the performance of it has been just as bad.

Slow, rusting, oil burning garbage

I had a turbo veloster which was decent car until 60-70k miles. The roof and hatch started to rust. Then it started burning oil. Right before I sold it with 100k miles, it was burning up at least 2 quarts every 1k miles. And no oil light had ever came on! At one point the oil had only a quart, if that, when I had my oil changed. The clock suddenly started not working properly and would never stay set. Overall, everything about these hyundai and kia cars screams cheap but trying to look top notch. Never buy one, I never will that's for sure.

Garbage

This car is garbage. If you've ever driven a quality car, you'll feel it immediately. I had to rent this car and couldn't wait to give it back. First of all, I hit my head every time I get in or out. It's hard to access door controls due to the huge handle in the way. Also, it looks ridiculous. There's only one back door? Really? It's tiny, my husband can't even fit in it. I never actually got the Bluetooth to work and the media system is infuriatingly confusing. It's INCREDIBLY LOUD and you feel even the smallest bump. Even for the money, this car is garbage. I write about cars for a living and this car is just at the bottom of every list. Uncomfortable, loud, not user friendly, rather weak when it comes to power. This is a rental and it already feels like it's about to break. Go for a better brand, it'll be SO worth it.
