    The Hyundai Veloster N is, put simply, the first time Hyundai has really nailed this segment. For less than $30,00, you get a flaming hot hatch with an angry engine, a balanced chassis, loads of configurability, great steering, firm brakes, and a low curb weight. It's a real winner, this thing. Matt and Zack take it out together.
    Hyundai of North America provided the vehicle, insurance, and a tank of fuel for this review.

    If people don't go out and buy these, this may be last new hot hatch we see in the US for a long time. At 30 grand for a 95% Type R you have no excuses.

    Hyundai built a hot hatch with fantastic handling, plenty of power, unique styling, only sells it with a 6-speed manual, it's comparable to the Civic Type R but $6k (CAD) cheaper AND it doesn't have the build quality of cheap toy.

    I bought a used base N earlier this year before the lockdowns, its a great little car especially for the price paid. Obviously if you can get a PP (Performance Pack) and can afford it get the PP, the exhaust and diff will honestly make the difference, problem is they were being marked up a lot so it was hard to get one around MSRP. The base still handles really well, we have a super twisty road near me and it handles it great even without the lsd and bigger wheels. if youre not gonna track ir or autox it, a base is great, if youre going to do either of those things, id wait for the PP honestly

  • @ericmichel3857
    @ericmichel3857 5 лет назад +15

    As long as Hyundai dealers don't gouge the price like Honda, I think this will become the new hot hatch standard. The car has so much personality, I think the three door configuration just adds to that IMO. Plus having the longer door makes it nice for hanging your arm on the door when cruising on a nice day and gives you better side visibility so (pros and cons). The question I have is when is this thing actually going to be available? They originally told us November 2018 and here it is Jan 2019 and they are still not in dealers yet as far as I know, and I have contacted a local dealer to let me know when they are getting one, and put myself on the Hyundai notification list.
    so essentially almost $10K cheaper than the Type R, better looking (subjective), Sounds way better, 10 year 100K warranty, and is arguably just as fun, seems you would have to be a true Honda fanboy to pick the Type R over this car. Then consider the English/american made Type R does not have the build quality of the typical Japanese car, there are reports all over the place of them overheating on hot track days, transmission problems, why exactly would anyone choose the overpriced Type R over this car?
    Seems like the Korean car companies are doing to the Japanese companies, what they did to the American car companies 40 years ago, gotta love it.

When you are serious about buying, that is when they try to spring the dealer added mark up telling you how these are limited production and there is a waiting list and bla bla bla. Later not paying $40K for a civic, I don't care how well it turns. Regardless, even if you can get one for high 30's (which is doubtful), Hyundai already announced that this is not going to be limited production meaning there is a good chance to get it for well under MSRP once dealers haver several sitting on there lot. The price difference will be close to $10K and this thing doesn't look ridiculous like the Honda does.

    Also, I chose the N over the Type R for one huge reason, markups! Cheapest 2019 Type R I could find (and the 2020 was already out) was $40k!!! (msrp $34,700) and the 2020 was marked up to $48k!!! ($38,700 msrp)
    I got my Veloster N WITH Performance Package (msrp $30,500) for $28k and couldn't have been happier whatsoever
    Have an air intake and downpipe now too and even without a tune am already faster than a stock Type R for $19,000 less

    The asymmetric thing gets a lot of flack from reviewers, but I like it. It's unique. If you want a 4 door or a 5 door hatch, they have those. If you want a coupe, they have those too. The beauty of this, is that as a driver, as far as you're concerned, you're getting into a coupe. But for kids or whomever is riding in the back, they get their own door--on the correct, curb side. And it's the only car that offers this. Most of the time, that back seat will be empty anyway, but it's nice to have access when you need it. I am sure there are plenty of coupes where a child seat would fit in the back, but getting it back there--and the kid as well--is unlivable enough to make someone sell their pride-and-joy. If all of that isn't practical enough for you, then go buy something with more doors, a taller roof, where you sit upright, and no one will ever call it "sporty." You can't have everything, but the Veloster feels like a good compromise.

      I agree with this. Honestly when it first came out I thought it was the dumbest thing in the world. But then I thought about it a bit more and it actually makes sense in the way that you describe. Most of the time I commute by myself and would rather have a longer door, a B pillar that's further back from my field of vision, and the weight loss from getting rid of a door that wouldn't be used most of the time anyway. Also, if I'm driving people around I would rather have them get in from the passenger side than mine because I'm too lazy to move my seat forward lol

  • @nicolecherry3348
    @nicolecherry3348 3 года назад +2

    12:00 that. I feel that. I'm a Honda Hoe for sure but The Hyundai looks wayyyy better to me than the Type R. The Type R looks like its holding pose awkwardly trying to appear more aggressive than what it is like a junior weight lifter trying to flex for girlies while the Hyundai is like "yeah, Im a cheap Korean car but I run good. Keep it simple". It's just so much cleaner and near as much in your face....
    Also, I feel like the pricing value is much more relatable to Honda's base of inexpensive FWD sportscars. It's no longer a Korean Knockoff, they can stand alone now.

    I never cared for Hyundai, but they’ve made some huge improvements in quality, reliability and styling. I don’t love the doors, but the styling and price with that performance....can’t beat it. I actually hope this one does really well so it pushes others to follow suit. How is it that any performance hatch you actually want costs 40k? Keep it under 30k and you’ll sell a billion of them

    What an entry from Hyundai. Sounds great! I think the only major flaw is the gearing...that 3rd gear is just a little too tall. They should have kept the 2nd-3rd ratios closer. But perhaps you can reduce the drop in power with tuning.

Albert has really done a great job for Hyundai. I hope they put the new 2.4 T motor in this car. I hear they now have dual injection in that new motor. Both port and GDI!!!

    Matt, did you notice your foot hitting thaw wiring harness still? My buddy has the R and my size 14 was kinda locked in place between the clutch and the wiring harness. Also the top of my feet would sometimes hit the dash. This is deal breaker level stuff

    How did it ride compared to the Type R? I’ve heard from a lot of different reviews that the Type R’s suspension is very livable compared to most of the other hot hatches. The type R is also more practical on the interior. I do agree though that the N looks better.

    Now that I've tracked mine a few times, I feel I might chime in on the play in the brake pedal; I think it's purely the result of having driven a car that has been BEATEN.
    Mine never suffered any pedal slop, until tracking it. Now that I have, there is notable dead space in the travel, though somehow overall braking potential doesn't seem affected. Confidence is affected, but the damn thing still stops, and HARD when you tell it to.

    Really wish the Civic Type R was a bit more subdued and sounded closer to what this sounds like. I so badly want to be in another Honda, but the current Civic platform feels so big and looks just absolutely ridiculous. It's really refreshing to see a true hot hatch that keeps the typical cheap price tag, though.
