I just bought a 2020 (w/ppg) for my son (his 21st birthday and a trade for his Sonata for me ). He’s been talking about it for a year, and after watching reviews like this I was sold too. He wanted manual and I love it. The car is outrageous on the roads in the hills!!! We rented a WRX, a Slingshot, a Miata, a C7z51, a 370z. The Veloster is more fun than any!! The Corvette is a dream and very scary, but not as practical and mega $$$ (plus I’ll take the C8). The Veloster is fantastic!!! (Suspension in Sport+ is punishing and spills my Monsters all over!!). BTW: we looked for 2021 in black, w/6 spd (in Ca Bay Area) and there aren’t ANY!!! Everything coming in is a DCT. We settled for a white one w/only about 9k miles. Love it!!! (I still love Camaros, top fuel dragsters, and the like, but this is a riot and affordable.) Great review!!!

That should tell you something. I haven't test-driven one of these yet but they look fun, from what i've seen for the past 2 years. I once had my Mustang in the shop for an extended period of time about two weeks, and they gave me a loaner Ford Focus ST, that little Focus had such good brakes and handled so nimbly and had such sharp steering it felt like night and day over the Mustang, i was actually having more fun in the ST than my Mustang!

Have never driven a V8 mustang, but drove a V8 charger the same day I drove (and bought) my 2022 veloster N and i will say its not only faster but way more fun to drive.

Great video. My current car is an 2013 Sonata Limited. Prior to that I had an 2006 Hyundai Tiburon GT. I was going to get the 2021 Sonata Limited, than I saw they are coming out with an Sonata N-Line. Following that was watching the Veloster N. Thing is, I'm a big guy at 6'2, 265lbs so I don't think the Veloster N is going to work out too well for me lol. Hence why I'm getting the Sonata N-Line. It fits my body type perfectly. I would def love to take the Veloster N out for a test drive just to see how it is. Hyundai has just been doing amazing with their cars and people can say what they want but they aren't the Hyundai that they were years ago. Hyundai brought over ex BMW guy Albert Biermann for a reason, and it's showing with what not just Hyundai is putting out, but also KIA and he's responsible for the Stinger as well. They're really offering something for everyone between Hyundai, KIA and Genesis.

[@babisotonggg]

16:11 good launch..

[@Daveyboy_GolfR]

Now that we're in mid 2022, and the Elantra N is out... I'm so conflicted. We get an extra 29 pd-ft of TQ, as well as that beautiful digital gauge cluster and infotainment. But the VN exterior is so much nicer. Also, in rolling races, even with the VN DCT having a tune vs the EN DCT, the EN still pulled away pretty easily compared to the VN. Now the tune was a pretty cheap to an apparently and a jb4 would have most likely given the Veloster N the win. But in many videos we're seeing the Elantra N pulling on tuned STIs and tuned s3s. But it's so damn ugly in my opinion even though I've never seen one up close. However I absolutely love it's customization, which is even a little more versatile than the Veloster N but not much more. I just love the idea of a black Veloster N and how mean it would look. Especially with a few minor aesthetic mods. I'm coming out of a mk7 Golf R which I have tuned and done full bolt-ons etc etc and I wanted to get something that came right out of the box without having to mod anything for performance. And the Elantra N DCT does that, whereas I would most likely end up doing a JB4 to the Veloster N to get it around 300 pound feet and just a little over 300 HP. Don't want to go overboard and overwhelm the chassis and it's natural feel. Anyway maybe if I go and check out a black Elantra N DCT it might hide some of the ugliness because I absolutely love that car so much in every other way.

[@jamesluna162]

I suspect the 2022 Veloster N's are underrated just like the Kona and Elantra N. I saw a video posted recently of a stock 22 Veloster N 6 speed on terrible tires running a 13.9 at almost 103 MPH. Now if you compare that with all the other videos of stock Veloster N's running the quarter, you'll see that they struggle to trap 100 MPH. There was also a TSB put out about oil capacity that included late year 2022 Veloster N's, and all Kona and Elantra N's. I assume they are all using the same engine now. I also got to test drive a Kona N, and it didn't feel as fast as my 22 Veloster N 6 speed. I'm sure it is faster because of the 8 speed DCT, but it didn't put me in my seat the same way my Veloster N does.

you can swap dct exhaust with manual exhaust for more pops and bangs 👍🏼

[@vaejoviscarolinanus]

Jaesik Yu They both have the valve but I believe that the fact that it shifts so much faster than anyone can is the reason it doesn't seem like it has as many pops and bangs. Maybe it is the tune, but my friend said that he noticed the exhaust was more lively after the first oil change.

I was selling Hyundai’s when this model came out. I was really excited about it at first. Then it proved to be a sales dog. Boy was I disappointed. Well, then they did a couple smart things. First, they hired Albert Bierman away form BMW’s M division and he started to work his magic! He took the Veloster off the accent platform and moved it to the Elantra sport platform with it’s independent rear suspension. Then he put that 2.0 turbo motor in it for some real power. I retired 5 years ago after 20 years in the car business. 15 of those years I sold high end luxury cars for Infinity, Jaguar, and Lexus. Then Obama came and messed with our economy and luxury cars sales stalled! I saw the 2010 Sonata and was blown away. Was this really a Hyundai? I moved to Hyundai in Downers Grove, Illinois (Pugi Hyundai) and was pleasantly surprised at how well they took care of my customers and Hyundai had really started to put out a great product!

I would love to get your thoughts on the Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track!

[@frankvee]

How does the transmission on the DCT model work when in SPORT or N Mode, as far as shifting throughout the rev range? Is it left entirely to the driver to upshift and downshift at any desired point throughout the rev range (as if driving a true manual transmission), or does the onboard computer interfere with driver input at certain revs if no input is detected from the driver as is the case in many automatics with paddle shifters?

[@CTF33]

In manual mode it will not upshift on its own, it will just bounce off the rev limiter.

[@Stax62]

I would just miss those massive pops you get out of the manual when shifting gears near redline, the dct doesnt seem to replicate them like the manual does because its so fast, other than that, i would honestly consider trading my 19 for a dct one, because of the better daily driveability, because lets face it, driving a manual is kind of annoying when youre not on twisty roads or doing performance driving

The 6sp, how does it compare to the stock FT86 without Mtec Spring and with (if you had the upgrade).

[@vinman5432]

Nice video. Is there any leather in the interior?

[@carloscervantes836]

Saves weight? Nah bro give me all the missing features. My 08IS250 had cooled seats and it be getting hot. I got a Kona N and yeah EU gets the loaded version.

Some guys in Korea did pit Type R against Veloster N DCT in track, with the same tire and all. (though Type R used wider tire due to wheel specs) kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4a9eXiEj8uad9E (Spoiler: VN wins) Both of them are professional drivers, and both cars are mostly stock. Something to note is here is that Type R driver couldn't turn the ESC and emergency break off, and that did interfere the race a bit.

Thank you for telling me! His Veloster N is amazing. I love the aftermarket wheel with the paddles. And his seat setup. Gotta do this to mine

[@Live.drones]

@angeldeb careful, you’re triggering VTEC

[@signfang]

@NA NA He said he didn't took his Type R to this track, but he said he did race GT stock car event in the track.

[@wonderboy1998]

Fun fact: Hyundai/Kia their main goal is to take over European mArket, this car came to take vw spot and the French cars. If you miss driving a hot hatch... come to Europe, we have tons of hatches

[@johnnybravo5044]

Deep discounts on this car and it will fly off the shelves for sure.

[@j.martin4476]

I think it can sell its self in the value they have built into it... honestly what you’re getting at this price point is discount.. case in point I’m getting rid of a truck I’ve only had for 18 months to get this

[@furkanakkas5100]

Mann this car don't even comes to market in Turkey. This is so sad. Even if it comes price will be unbelievable

[@mustafatariq3252]

Its a really great car, wish they had given a little better interior quality, something like the civic or the Corolla, nothing fancy just something better, it would have been perfect.

[@KennyHaan]

I'm really torn between this and the WRX....

[@jorgeguzman9592]

I’m buying either one next year still haven’t made up my mind ...

Topher how do I reconcile that some quality YT reviewers have differing opinions on the DCT- some say it's not as responsive in manual mode and they'd get the manual for sure and others say it's great. I will test drive this myself but can't for a while. I wonder how you feel about the responsiveness of paddle shifters for gear changes?

[@TheTopher]

You can’t go wrong with either transmission, but this DCT is really well done. Paddle shifters felt great, no issues with response. The manual will be more involving and if you can snag a used one for cheap that wouldn’t be a bad way to go! This DCT definitely provides a more refined driving experience. Definitely would recommend driving both if possible and deciding from there.

[@Harry-uq9qd]

@@TheTopher thanks man! Love your videos

[@nefnasty2]

My friend has the older veloster, it sounds so good. I just hope the built this transmission properly. Hyundai is known for its glass autos.

[@RyanLuca581]

so sad they stopped making the veloster

[@Lecksfitness]

DCT seems awesome, but I would still take the manual everyday!

[@samrushton5497]

I wonder if a dct tune will be required if the engine is tuned.

[@MatchuCT]

What are the other cars you would pick auto instead of manual?

[@ravenstylea2]

I wonder when the new Mk8 GTI releases, if it would be a better performer than the N.

[@joskjj3625]

But way more pricier than the veloster n

[@aadilfaizal853]

Shud I get a Kia stinger gt or veloster n the exhaust is Just wanting me to get thissssss
