4 Fantastic Features of the 2022 Hyundai Veloster

Hyundai put its successful motorsport experience to good use when developing the Veloster. The powerful turbocharged engine and its quick maneuvering make for incredible performance. It’s practical, too, with its plentiful space and good fuel economy. Keep reading to find out why the Hyundai Veloster is the compact hatchback with a perfect combination of handling and practicality.

1. Impressive Powertrain

You wouldn’t expect much power from a typical hatchback, but this one stands out from the rest. The 2.0L Turbo GDI inline-4 engine puts out a whopping 275 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. That’s more than enough power for passing on the highway and to get you flying through windy backcountry roads.

The engine is paired with the standard six-speed manual transmission that automatically rev-matches or the available eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Either choice offers a responsive experience that lets you control the power with ease.

 

 

2. Customizable N Grin Control System

Depending on how you want to drive, Hyundai’s N Grin offers plenty of options. For everyday driving, you can select the Normal mode or you can choose Eco to maximize your gas mileage. If you want a bit more excitement, you can select the Sport or N modes to really take advantage of the sport-tuned steering, MacPherson strut front suspension, and multi-link rear suspension. You can even add your own unique settings with the N Custom mode.

The modes are easy to change using two dedicated buttons on the steering wheel.

 

 

3. Racy and Practical Interior

Step into the cabin and you’ll find a modern and stylish interior featuring lightweight N Light Sport bucket seats for the driver and front passenger and fold-down rear seating for two in the back. The driver and center controls are smartly laid out and require minimal effort to operate. LED lighting for the shift lights are also featured on the instrument cluster. The steering wheel and manual shifter are covered with high-quality leather.

You’ll find plenty of cargo space in the rear thanks to the hatchback design and even more available with the rear seats folded down.

 

4. Infotainment, Premium Audio, and Connectivity

Coming standard with the Veloster N is a no-fuss, 8.0-inch touchscreen and Infinity Premium Audio system with eight speakers, an external amp, and a subwoofer. Also standard is Apple CarPlay/Android, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, and a Bluetooth hands-free phone system that you can operate with voice commands.

You also get Hyundai’s Bluelink Connect Care service for the first three years with enrollment. This nifty app links to your smartphone and lets you remotely operate the climate controls and door locks, easily find your car in a parking lot, and notifies you if your car needs servicing by running full vehicle diagnostics.

If you’re looking for a reliable commuter, but crave more performance, then look no further than Hyundai’s excellent Veloster. This peppy hatchback offers up a true driver’s experience, the practicality that you need, and all the technology and connectivity that you’d expect and more.
