2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo Review

[@s.tnguyen4468]

Great review, but seriously people it's an economy car not a sport car. So unless you're a pro racer, stop whining about the speed:) Once again great review!

[@Schulzebub]

You get the Point ! Its not a Sportscar but a Sporty Car .

[@thatmanstu23]

Really enjoyed this fellow's review style. Clearly knowledgeable, with a good eye for real world details and none of the poser blather. Thanks very much.

[@cslammon]

I just bought this car, absolutely love it. The suspension thing is true, however there is an aftermarket torsion bar that can be picked up pretty cheap that corrects it quite easily. Not to mention, the sound of this thing once you put a nice aftermarket cone style filter on it sounds incredible. Absolutely recommend this car.

[@dwnforcemedia]

Best review of the 2014 VT so far.

[@aaronbiglow6573]

Just bought a used one today and was actually surprised by it. Is a little quicker than I expected. Sold my 2004 350z and wanted something a bit more practical.

[@anthonyb4340]

hows it holding up aaron?!

[@youraveragejoe2]

@@anthonyb4340 he doesn't know.

[@guhbooksun33]

Thank you for the awesome review.. 1 of the best veloster turbo reviews i've seen.

[@ogcool111699]

I'm looking into upgrading my 01 civic to this but before I get hate keep in mind I'm in high school

[@Agouti]

The issue he speaks of with the feeling in the rear suspension is actually pretty common with front heavy hot hatches when they try to control the understeer with very stiff rear stabiliser bars. Adding a turbo up front (50+kg entra over the front wheels) would only exacerbate it.

[@alexsiul1142]

that's because it doesn't have independent suspension and enough damping for firm tuned suspension. but it gives the sporty feeling to kids

[@Ivestor1]

After doing lots of research I just bought the 2014 Turbo. I wanted a hatchback that gets good mileage and looks good with some kick to it. This fit the bill. The 3rd odd ball door doesn't bother me but the ceiling height in the back is an issue but I don't intend on having more than 2 people in there at a time anyways :P.

[@Ivestor1]

Wow Lez really? Now go fuck yourself.

[@cerealis_5432]

How’s it holding up? Do you still own it?

[@BoopSnoot]

5:22 it almost feels like you have a torsion beam rear suspension... because you DO! Its not a multilink independent rear, so it won't feel like one.

[@braxtonmarshall1883]

im very happy with my veloster, i smoked a zo6 from red light to red light, not often do I see a younger person driving a corvette so I had to ask him to race, if the race had gone any longer he would have won lol. but from a quarter mile I got him

[@quektea]

Jeff, you have nailed it with the list of improvements. Think you gave a very honest review for the Veloster Turbo.

[@Saytheodd]

I have a Veloster Base, The base motor is peppy with a CAI; 8 seconds to 60 isn't bad with the 6spd. The VT and the base veloster both handle similarly. It doesn't drive like a economy car, so idk what he was talking about there. The rear suspension is a torsion twist beam, so it will hop when going over big bumps, another down fall to this car. The open front differential is an issue with the N/A Veloster, it always does 1-wheel peel outs, I could only imagine with 195pounds feet of torque :)

[@freezor80]

You should test an R-Spec or Rally Version now. We love my wife's 2014 R-Spec.

[@freezor80]

freezor80 It has all the suspension sorted out. But it is deceptively quick around corners.

[@JeffGlucker]

Of course! I'm still on the Autobytel channel, my own TheHooniverse Channel, and here as well...

[@DiViNeQuIcK11]

just got the 2015 turbo r spec... such a fun fantastic car

[@Xenios9]

what color did you get it in

[@DiViNeQuIcK11]

white, with red leather interior

[@Xenios9]

Chad Del Rio wow nice dude, you should post a vid or let me see a pic lol

[@edgarcastellanos3334]

hi wich is the diference with the veloster turbo because the r-spec is more cheap i think. thank you

[@DiViNeQuIcK11]

Turbo is obviously gonna have a little more kick to it, i have the turbo r-spec so i got the whole package :) of course turbo is just gonna give u those extra ponies, other than that very similar

[@yobobjm]

Wait, is Hooniverse in Irvine CA?

[@thepatriot8851]

really good job reviewing the vt .

[@supercooled]

Did you listen to the review? The reviewer is 6'3. You decide.

[@123Rosko]

are you related to the autobytel guy?

[@revolutionday1]

I just drove a 2013 Hyundai Elantra, which probably has the same suspension setup as the Veloster, as a rental, and definitely experienced the same issues with the rear end that the reviewer did. A very spooky feeling car that I wouldn't buy. Conversely, my daily driver KIA Forte SX has a solid rear axle and is much more planted. Go figure.

[@aussiebloke609]

It actually has the solid rear axle from the Accent, not the independent setup from the Elantra.

[@SkepticCat-pz1zz]

Good presenter very natural!

[@joshuapirelli6146]

The 2014 Hyundai Veloster sports Hyundai’s new cutting-edge advanced technology. Hyundai Motor Company manufactures its own engines (known as Lambda) and they are one of the most technologically advanced engines in the world. Korean technology companies are the most advanced in the world (look at Samsung... the world's biggest and most advanced technology company by revenues and innovation index). FORZA HYUNDAI MOTORS!

[@vietstyle888]

Sucks they're front fwd.. I wouldve bought it if it was rwd. I just got the genesis coupe instead :D

[@edgardoamado7008]

Really good review

[@eastcoastautostyle74]

The shit suspension is also the same on the Elantra!! I hate it! Hyundai cutting costs and putting live rear axles in cars that should have independent rear suspension!

[@TheGoozealot]

Thats what i thought. I saw the giants buildings in the background i recognized them.

[@412Lawn]

I'm 6' 2'' would this be too small?

[@chakenfangersaregood]

seems like it would be terribly balanced with the engine being placed way on the left side lol.

[@JeffGlucker]

No. We have writers all over, but I'm based in Huntington Beach...

[@JeffGlucker]

this guy obviously doesn't get sarcasm...

[@SquashBox]

Because I thought that was a funny joke. It kept things interesting.

[@madskillzforealz]

Wish I didn't buy my gs350 and got this!!! Wahhh

[@TheeeDanielR]

Hm

[@j종호]

^^

[@JeffGlucker]

I... laughed.

[@te3f]

point proven.

[@te3f]

if you can read? this guy obviously doesn't respect his viewers.

[@BoopSnoot]

Car has shit for headroom, especially in the back.

[@aussiebloke609]

I'm 6' 0" and can wear a hat in front - you can lower the front seat if you're too high.

[@pubzman69]

is guy is annoying just drive the car bro,
