I'm a 56 year-old woman getting out of a 2009 Volvo C30 t5. Like you, not your typical buyer profile for this car. I bought the 2020 Hyundai Veloster Turbo package specifically because it didn't have four doors. Two-door hatchbacks are hard to find. This vehicle is the most fairly priced for what you get and the performance. I love the third door and the value is it prices better on insurance. I do enjoy the sunroof as much as I enjoy punching this little beauty around my city.

[@drummer7557]

That's awesome!!! Racing grandma!!! You rock!

[@signfang]

That crackle is actually useful! Albert Biermann explained that it keeps some of the fuel in the exhaust to reduce the turbo lag. (Engineering Explained made a video about it)

[@gasher70]

yes, it acts as a sort of anti-lag when it pops.

[@babisotonggg]

yup.. sadly this guy doesnt know about it

[@melaniee9764]

Good to know

[@geraldgoodiii6993]

Noob Driver he also said there are Brembos on there. I own one. There are not Brembos.

[@EfJelOc4]

Asymmetric three-door design is the best thing about Veloster. I'm 6'4" and prefer large driver's door. Compact hatchbacks can have large driver's door in 2 doors configuration only. But 2 doors configuration is not practical for passengers. Veloster gives you large door for you and additional door for your passengers.

[@PCGGC]

same here! 6'3 and I fit in this MUCH better than the old Focus RS , Type R, etc. Loving it so far. And passenger side has plenty of legroom for 2 people front and back as well

[@hondamanvtec2894]

1 door and 2 doors on the other side is the ONLY stupid thing about this car

Right?!? I have a red one and cant stop telling people about it! Such an amzing car. The type R is mundane in comparison, speed is irrelevant to true driving pleasure.

[@revmatchproductions]

The warranty on the type R also doesnt come close to the N. bumper to bumper 10 years 100K miles, honda will never offer you anything close to that

[@revmatchproductions]

Thank you so much for this, i have a red 2020 N and i try to explain how good the car is to people but you HAVE to DRIVE it to understand. Its one of the most smile inducing automobiles ever!

[@PLkuruma]

Pretty sure the Veloster N doesn't come with Brembos. They're just larger N-branded brakes.

[@PeatyR]

that's correct, they use larger breaks from another model in there lineup. They just paint the calipers a similar color.

Welders no I didn’t if need be I could easily slap the stock air box on. I’d have to look into what actually voids the warranty but they’d have to prove an intake and bov was the root cause to whatever problem I had. If I need warranty work I can slap the stock gear on ahead of time anyway.

@waffles29 how is that entitled? 😂

[@DragonKnightX12]

Because with modern technology and transmissions these things can go from efficiently shifting for good fuel economy to shifting faster and more aggressive than any professional driver with the touch of a button. So yea manuals are fun, but if you want maximum performance you need a good Auto or DCT.

[@DragonKnightX12]

@waffles29 That's Ironic, because it was the Germans and Italians that started this.

[@StandingUpForBetter]

Great review! Hyundai did an AMAZING job with this car and it sounds so good! This car and the Type R was on my 2 car short list for our second car. We ultimately went with the Type R because we got a great deal on the Type R and it was available. I was literally on the phone with the Honda dealer and the Hyundai dealer on the same day. They did not have any Veloster Ns in Performance Blue like in this video and for us that is the only color we wanted for the N. What Hyundai did at this price point is amazing! In a world where people say manuals are dying and there is a push for cars to drive themselves I am so glad cars like the Veloster N and Type R exist now it is time for people to stop talking about "saving the manual" and actually go out buy these amazing cars with manuals. I did. Fun Fact, the crackles are useful. They are the result of the anti-lag system for the turbo. Well done Hyundai engineers! All this and the 10 year/100,000 mile warranty for about $30,000! Simply INCREDIBLE! Cars like this show that driving fun is not only reserved for the filthy rich.

[@SILVERTC2005]

I love the 3 doors on my Veloster N. They come in handy when you're as tall as I am. Im 6'6" and in most cars I drive I have to have the seat all the way back. and in a 4 door car that usually puts me behind the B pillar a bit makes a weird blind spot and makes it weird to get in and out of the car. But in 2 door cars I can have my seat all the way back and still be in front of the B Pillas, makes it way easier to get in and out of the car. But that's just me. I know not everyone is as tall as me.

[@XxMrRoachxX]

I just got the Turbo for my wife yesterday and I have to admit, I'll probably be driving it more than my modded Ram 1500. It's just so much fun to corner, it's like a go-kart, and that turbo kicking in feels amazing already. Big smile on face all the time :) It's brand new so I won't be reving it up too much yet for at least 500 miles lol. It's probably one of the best handling and performing cars for the price. Might get one for myself to mod and play with as a secondary fun car :D

I love this video! What an amazing car! And, yes-damn right I bought one! I heard the crackles and pops are functional. Apparently, it creates back pressure to keep the turbo going between shifts. I also got the vibe that anti-lag systems have a tough time passing emissions, so this is a total win!

[@brendenlarson462]

Still enjoying it 3 years later? I'm looking at a useful 2020 with only 17k miles, but they want 28k for it.

[@PCGGC]

2020 Type R is out (and much improved tech/suspension) and 2021 announced already. I made an offer on a 2019 Type R and lowest they would go was $38k!!!! On a $34,700 msrp.... snobs. I got a 2020 Veloster N WITH Performance Pack for $27k instead. Couldn't be happier. I like the looks and how it drives better too, and more power is easy since it's only 15psi stock (Type R is 23psi stock)

[@ricknoah9184]

I'm very curious about the next gen of this car. Am aware that the DCT is coming and a 2.5 engine is in the works, with variable timing that is superior to VTEC. Sounds like a future type N may be well into the 300hp range. But I bought the current 2020 model, with PP.... picking it up today !!!!

[@nstylemotorsportsracing1471]

I never use the launch control but I didn't know about the 3 min cool down. Good info thanks for a great video.

[@donlucchese7280]

I think that the 4 doors version makes sense when picking up somebody off the street or road because of the hassle of folding seats up in when you have to pick someone up when in a hurry is something i hate the most in 3 door cars and is annoying. I actually think that's a good approach to solve that issue.

[@PeatyR]

Well done as always. Thanks for the video review. My son just picked up the N with the performance package a few weeks ago. Same color. He's still breaking it in at this point. The sound is pretty cool, I have to admit. Double edged sword for people like me that enjoy modifying cars. I'm not sure there is anything to modify TBH. Notthing to do but drive this one other than get a second set of wheels for the winter...

[@Consolethumbs]

Imo this is the closest to the Civic Type R which is still the FWD king at the moment but to get something with this performance for the price is insane. Only thing I would change would be the wheels and remove those red accents and we are golden

[@VQ25DETT]

That is true in North America, at least for now. In Europe tho, they have Megane RS Trophy and Trophy R (Fastest around the ring), and they have/ will have faster FWD hatches from VW Group. And there's i30N too. Veloster N is actually priced higher in the market compared to i30N, so better value there. Although it' def costs more since cars are more expansive in europe lol

[@DragonKnightX12]

Might even be getting closer. A mule was spotted with a bigger 2.5L Turbo 4 banger putting out 300HP and 311 TQ.

Hyndai does not use brembos on their n models its their brake brand. Brembo does not supply them at all. Its mentioned several times in other car reviews.

[@frankp5020]

I really like this car but having watched your previous Veloster turbo review I have some concerns. One, the blind spot from the back c-pillar. The N doesn't have safety options available like the Veloster turbo. You also mentioned how small of a car the Veloster turbo is. If I'm not mistaken aren't all the Veloster's the same dimensions? I will need test drive it to see if I will like it. I'm 5'10 so not tall like you.

[@drivingsports]

Small compared to the Honda Civic, not other Velosters.

[@matthewspencer5853]

I've test driven several of them and am 5'9. I have PLENTY of space in the front and I can easily sit in the back. I probably wouldn't recommend the back seats to anyone over 6 feet tho. As for the blindspots, they weren't bad bit not great. Good news is the driver side mirror comes pre-built with a blindspots mirror. I'd definitely put an aftermarket blindspot mirror for the passenger side tho

[@npaul4171]

It's definitely worth taking for a test drive. It's a very specialized car built specifically for a very specific audience, so it is most likely going to either be a great match for you or not a good match in the least. It's worth pointing out that the car is extremely basic in regard to amenities...it trades many of these amenities for performance features that most cars anywhere near this price range lack. So one question you might want to keep in mind is if the N's amenities are sufficient for you. For me they were more than sufficient as I didn't prioritize them nearly as high as I did other attributes, like driving engagement.

[@FreeAgentDaBest]

The previous generation models were known for poor visibility and bad blind spots out the rear... I own a 2013 Veloster and honestly at first I thought the visibility and blind spots were terrible, but after a few months of driving I got use to it, and now currently in 2020 I can’t comprehend how I thought it was so bad now that I’m use to it. It’s 0% of an issue.

[@Balabok]

Blind spots are not an issue if you properly set up your mirrors.

[@affinity3281]

The weird doors made this a no for me. I would have liked an i30N. I couldnt find an Elantra GT N Line so I bought a 2018 GTI SE with plaid seats. I like the 18" wheels over 19s for ride quality and cost. Wish I opted for adjustable dampening but not a big deal. I enjoy the sunroof. My last 2 Mustangs didnt have one but I enjoy the light it lets in. Makes the car feel bigger. As a new dad Mustang had to go. Needed something fun with stick shift and a usable back seat. Veloster N not practical enough. Also requires 91 octane.

I think Hyundai made an error when they made a techno rich N car. The real challenge is getting the same kind of handling and efficiency with out all trickery. I'm not a fan of the trick suspension when some quality progressive spring is enough. My old 1998 Civic had Pro-kit springs and huge dampening range that was super quick. With the front double-wishbone suspension and upgraded shocks, I could hop onto a curb at extreme speed with no drama. If the Veloster attempted the same maneuver, it'd destroy its wheel and front suspension. Also, if it's your daily ride, u want it to be predictable. In an emergency situation, you want the car to react like one of your own body parts, just like your legs would react if a piano was about to drop on your head. Having all these layers and layers of electronic and adjustability is going to put you in a situation where you're not in-tune with your ride. I feel at home in a more simplistic setup, when done properly like those old-school car from the 90s. My tuned 98 Civic had it and I feel like we're now playing catch-up to something that was already done.

How would you know if this VN would destroy its' front suspension and wheels? Have you driven this car yet? Sounds like you're just judging this car based on the Hyundai badge. I don't think you know what you're talking about. Judging by you praising your own riced-out 98 civic for all its' glory, would you say the same thing if you compared it to the new Type R?

@@stevenlee9819 With my old 98 civic's front double-wishbone setup on progressive pro-kit springs and Tokico shocks, super stiff Toyo Proxes sidewall (195/50/15) on Konig rims, I have not encountered anything remotely as capable in the extreme. Perhaps N or R can handle that kind of abuse but I wouldn't bank on it. I put over 250,000km on said setup and handling was still above 95 percent with same components and no accidents. I haven't driven an R, but I'm very impressed with my current daily, 2017 2.0na 6MT civic (this car drives better with traction control off, but not completely for those oh-shit moment). Anyways, doubt the R could turn-in as fast as my old tuned 98 Civic.

[@psewgobind]

@Chuck Towers You're right for a controlled race track, for the rest of us who have to daily our car on the streets, I disagree. Still, my old setup with front & rear double wishbone could not get upset even though it's not dropped. Honda probably knows, since they created the Type-R, but if you needed a test mule to come-up with ultimate front drive, it's a tuned 90s Civic. btw, I got my drivers licences in 1986, but would steal my dad's Dela 88 Brougham well before that.

Those aren’t Brembo brakes

Brembo brakes? Mmm don’t think so.

Not the King. More like the prince who was destined for greatness and trained with a private master only to fall on the battlefield to a 1v1 against a CTR

GR SPORT CAP DRIVING A HYUNDAI😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@MichaelHartlein]

Man, I just can't get past the look of the car. It's just like a lady, if she doesn't have a pretty face and nice body probably not even tempted to go out even though she maybe the sweetest person ever.

[@ryanswain1981]

How dare you admit that looks matter with women and even WORSE, A Sports Car!. Prepare for all social media to ban you for having an organic honest opinion.

[@gladdy02]

In my opinion, this car was a mistake. They should have given us the Elantra in N trim like they do in Europe. Not this odd car with 3 doors.

[@vsewerv]

You can go buy the Kona N in a few months and leave us first adaptors with our weird doors alone as we pass you.
