I love my Hyundai Volester!! It runs great and the ride is so smooth that you dont realize that the speed has reached over 80mph and the car handles the same as it does at 40mph!! It's sporty looking, but not so sporty that you need to be a twenty something to drive it!! I love everything about this car, if you need to pick up your speed quickly, it gets up and goes and the twin turbos kicmck in and you're gone, but smoothly without any jerking or throwing you back in your seat...but it goes and goes fast without whiplash!!! As I said I love my Hyundai Volester!!

I really love my Hyundai Volester!! It's fast and fun to drive but it's smooth riding and driving at 40mph and just the same at 80 to 90mph!!! I love how it handles. The steering wheel doesnt shake at a high speed, I've had it to 90mph and it didn't shimmery at all!! I've owed 2 Hyundais in the last 15+ years and they have been very reliably. I am almost positive that my next new car purchase will be a Hyundai!!

2016 Veloster Turbo

The Veloster Turbo is a fun car with great handling. Earlier I drove Toyota MR-2s but they are not available now. The warranty is a big plus for five years or 60K miles. I have a request in to test drive the new Veloster N that is coming out later this year.

Good

I really love my car but I feel the turbo lag is much too prominent. You can feel the lag from first gear. Once you hit 3rd it holds out super long and has a hard time deciding whether it will shift up or down. I realize that third gear is the longest gear but its very obvious. I have worked on cars since I was a child. I feel the cars shifting and lag could be improved on tremendously.

Veloster

I have had my Veloster since August 2016. I have had no problems whatsoever. It is fun to drive, the gas mileage is awesome. I fill up every 2-3 weeks and I use to fill up every week. This car has been such a joy and i love the 3 doors. It is so convenient for grocery shopping with the lift back. I highly recommend the Veloster. Sheri C.

Binx

I love my car. Binx is fun, fast and functional. If I need to haul something for work, the truck space is good.I do not recommend black if you live in florida. Window tinting and thick sun shade a must.

Great car would recommend to anyone. This car looks good, runs great and is a pleasure to drive. for cruising around town to commuting to work you will love this car. audio system is excellent. extremely comfortable interior with easy access to all controls. Sun roof is great on those days when weather is just right.

Fun ride

I love my 2016 Veloster I’m not familiar with ECO cars so sometimes it hesitates like a stick shift or act as a hybrid as if it’s going to cut off when I stop I don’t have it to compare but it’s a beautiful style and very fun to drive

MORE ZOOM

THE VELOSTER NOW HAS MORE GADGETS AND ALSO HAS THE SPORT MODE. YOU CAN FEEL THE DIFFERENCE WITH THE 2019 VERSION IN THE SPORT MODE. MORE POWERFUL THAN THE OLDER MODEL. FUN TO DRIVE. MORE SPEED. CAN'T WAIT TO GO ON THE HIGHWAY TO MIAMI.

Peep the Veloster

This turbo powered pumpkin of mine is a mean little street machine that really has some pep to match its prowess. This puppy can punch pavement if pushed and really put other stock hatchback posers in place. Pretty sure you’ll be pleased with the performance, personally. While the tight suspension might punish your pin cushion, don’t protest, it more than makes up for it in personality. Just don’t pretend potholes don’t exist and you’ll be playin pass the traffic and having fun while doing it.

Love my Velostar

I think this is a great car. Had a Tiburon prior to this (wish they still made it) and wouldn't change makes. The car is a good size for me - I'm a single driver - but it also accommodates my grandchild and all his "stuff".

Veloster Turbo

I absolutely love my Veloster Turbo. I upgraded from the regular Veloster to the turbo, I even got the same color. It has exactly the amount of speed I was looking for in a vehicle. The styling is great. People are always telling me that my car is really cool. One of my favorite features is the back up camera. And another is the driver's side mirror in a mirror. I can see everything on that side. I only wish there was some type of blindspot indicator warning sytem on the passenger side. Overall its a great car.

Fun car, runs great

I'd wanted a Veloster for several years, but had to save money for a good down payment to be able to buy any new car. This 6 speed manual transmission has some get up and go, even though it's not a turbo. Hyundai's participation in the BoostUp program made this vehicle even a better bargain. The warranty was a big plus for me. I had one part go out, and Hyundai towed my car and the repair cost me nothing. I've had a lot of fun driving my sporty car with great gas mileage. I routinely get about 34 or 35 miles to the gallon, mostly highway driving. My upgraded sound system is incredible, and I'm surprised at how much I can get in the hatchback compartment.

Hyndui turbo veloster

I am beyond pleased with my veloster the only thing I have a problem with is the trunk goes up very high , I’m short in stature so not their fault. It drives great in the snow as well I’ve only ever had low tire pressure light come on and it’s due to me driving over something we have a lot of construction going on. Mine is a 2016 I’m probably going to get the newer one when my lease is up . I owned a hyndui before this purchase which had all the bells and whistles, 3 of us in the family own Hyundai and love them and all purchased from this dealership . Well made cars and customer service is great

2016 Hyundai Veloster Turbo Rally edition

Great looking car and a lot of fun to drive. I’ve had some minor issues with the exception of my rear main seal going out at 10k. I’m not particularly fond of Hyundai dealers seeing how they don’t seem to like enthusiasts who enjoy personalizing their vehicles. I hope this changes with the upcoming N models.

Little engine that can

It will take you where you want to go. Feel the road beneath you. Good looking car with great mileage. What else can you ask for it? Well if you want more powers, mileage will suffer if you want more mileage , you will get mellow response. Just be happy and enjoy the ride. It will take you there.

Veloster surprised me

I bought it for the utility of small car commuting. I had a checklist and it met 16 of the 20 items on my list. After I had it for a couple weeks, I started to love it more and more. In fact, I bought a second one 2 years later. The 3 door design seemed gimmicky at first, until I had passengers and they couldn't get out into traffic. The 3rd door also kept the car from being rated as a coup, so my insurance was cheaper. Love the hatch back and folding rear seats, makes the car so much more versatile.

Love my veloster and enjoy driving it daily. Could use more horse power, for faster ride!!!! I found this survey to be too long to answer, repetitive questions, but I guess it will help make better car in future.

Veloster 2016

The car is cute but I would not buy another because of the way that car jerks when you are driving sometimes. If it wasn’t for that I would recommend the vehicle. Had it checked out by the dealer but they say the car is ok

AWESOME !!!

It looks like a SPORTS CAR , but definitely NOT. Its SUPER FUEL EFFICIENT and it handles VERY WELL through the curves. It is COMFORTABLE while driving and it picks up FAST when you have to (if you know what I mean LOL!!!).

I couldn’t be more in love with a car than I am with the Veloster. Definitely the most fun I’ve had in a car ! I’ve owned many different vehicles & the Veloster has been my top favorite! If I was rich I’d buy the new one !
