I purchased a 2019 Veloster, traded in a 2016. Many changes in the Veloster in 3 years. I got the Turbo model, all of the safety featuers and more. The difference between the two, transmission smother, better fuel economy, more featuers to help the driver. Lane keep assist, blond spot and cross traffic. I agree with Ron Fox , this car doesn't get the reviews it should. Always compared to civic r and GTI, these cars cost much more equipped the way the Veloster is. Most reviews recommend the Turbo spec, yet I would say 90% of the people can't drive a 6 speed transmission. The warranty is better than most car's, 5 years or 60,000 miles.

This is a seriously fun little car. Great on a back road. Quality and performance exceed the price.

I have only had this car (2019) for about 2 month. I LOVE it. I love cars to begin with and had a 1999 Cougar for about 20 years that I loved. I turned it in (couldn't find a part to fix it) and got a Ford focus, manual tranny. It was good. I liked it. Had power. But the Velostar I LOVE! It is me. I am over 50 but have always loved sportier cars. The handling is great. I took it down the coast route, Hwy 101 in Oregon which has quite a few sharp turns. It did great. Smiled all the way home. I thought Hyundai's were cheap cars but I think this is better than my Ford focus. It does have a short 'back door' (if it had one) window on the drivers side so is a little hard to see out of but I don't have too much trouble seeing behind me. Maybe because I am tall. I don't think I can think of any problems. I know that I am so glad I bought this car. I think Ron Fox (another review) said it all.

Nice car. Small, which is just what my wife likes. Lower than our previous vehicle, but not as low feeling as I thought. Pick-up is decent and overall we are very happy with the vehicle.

I agree with Ron Fox this car gets left out of comparing with other cars for some reason. It is always compared to the civic r and GTI, these cars cost many dollars more than the Veloster. I had a 2016 Veloster and traded it in in a 2019 Veloster. The new Veloster has improved in many areas, the transmission is smoother. Vision seems better forward and side views, rear vision is still limited. However blind spot detection and cross traffic detection is great. When backing up if a car or person is in the area it lets you know. Gas mileage is improved, seat comfort is great. The engine is smooth and turbo is more responsive. The warranty is better than many cars, 5 years and 60,000 miles.
