The Veloster N is Hyundai's addition to the hot hatch market. It’s a practical, affordable, dependable car that you can daily, but that’s not what you’re here for. It’s also one of the most fun to drive performance cars out on the road today and that’s because it’s engineered so well. This obscure three-door hatchback has some BMW M-sport inspired technology hiding under the hood and today we’re going find out what makes this car so good.. We’re talking twin scroll turbos and a bunch of e-l-e-c-t-r-o-n-i-c goodies!
Some of our best videos ever are coming out soon, stay tuned so you won't miss a thing!

I’ve worked at Audi in sales for the last 5 years and the Veloster N was one of the top 5 cars I’ve driven in that time. It’s just so unsuspecting only way to could be better is AWD.

[@John-rw9bv]

made by Subaru but i dont think subarus have active suspension, anti-roll, or rev-matching. It is impressive what useful electronic controls can be manufactured cheaply and mass-produced, it does beg the question if more complicated mechanics are worth it. Electronic motors make most of this tech a non-issue though.

Yeah it’s really impressive. For a Korean brand, which was always making cheap and plastic cars, to now take the world by surprise is incredible, and I honestly want a Hyundai now.

[@pilotavery]

They're making cars that are above average in every single way, efficiency, power, repairability, reliability, warranty, features, handling, settling for mediocrity, which to be is 100% fine, because it's also much much cheaper than the competition, and has nothing I can say is "bad" or a "flaw" with their cars. They are a jack-of-all-trades, master of none and are the best value for just about anyone. They're a no bullshit car and not over-engineered, even there Genesis class that competes with BMW. Hyundai, they are the best all-around car if you need to commute. The velostar is a commuter that is also very fun to drive! This turbo is a gimmick but that's ok, better than some unreliable failure of a gimmick like most companies do. At least this makes this commuter car fun to drive, since it's too weak without the turbo

[@clammaster4]

Kia gets the stinger, probably the only twin turbo v6 car from an economy brand since 300z32 (don't say honda NSX), and Hyundai gets this N. With kia's warranties, theyre pretty much infinite because of the amount of "not-recalls" they issue for clockwork-maintenance. They're excellent entry level sports cars for people who don't want to spend a fortune on a Honda or Ford hatch

Channel Zero One, but you’re talking about older cars that gain classic status or gather a cult following. New cars lose 20% of their value after the first 12 months that they’re taken off the lot. MSRP though, doesn’t usually change much during a vehicles current generation. That being said, dealers can always ignore the MSRP and charge more or less so it’s not as simple as saying “not for long”.

I love my Veloster N. I've had it for a year now and it has been the most fun car to drive, and the 22000 miles I've put on it have been comfy as well. I've driven between Canada and Pennsylvania multiple times regularly, taken a trip from PA to Colorado to Texas then back to PA, all the while leaving the car run for 24 to 40 hours at a time, no issues. I haven't even had to change the brake pads yet. I do have to say though it does not drive like an NA car. It's a lot less jerky than any other turbo FWD car I've been in or driven, and has a lot more control with less wheel hop and the turbo lag doesn't really make you lose grip, but you can definitely feel and tell when the lag ends and the turbo is spooled up, it does throw you into the seat, but what Hyundai implemented does help. It's a much more smooth transition from lowend torque to turbo spool power than a lot other turbocharged cars out there. I definitely recommend this car for anyone looking for a super hot hatch. It's cheaper than the Golf GTI, cheaper than the Civic Type-R and it's faster than them. Don't believe me? Come to my neck of the woods take a ride in mine, we'll go racing. This car has been the best experience of a car I could ever hope for with the price of 30,000 USD. Honestly. I don't work for Hyundai, I used to hate them like most every other car enthusiast. They were ugly they were gross the original Genesis was..meh, fast drift car but..meh? The first gen Velosters were ugly and slow and not fun. This one though, it has to be in my opinion the best car money can buy; if not for the fact it's the cheapest flashy-looking fun car you can buy, but the fastest, and turns the most heads. Nobody knows what this car is in the wild, not even a lot of car enthusiasts. Can't tell you how many times I've been asked "Is that an Audi?" or "Wait.. that's a HYUNDAI!?" And people who do know what it is usually know what's up and still compliment it. And for those who see it as just another hatchback with a dumb spoiler usually go bug-eyed when you rev and lift, letting out those insane pops. I've had BMWs shake their heads when I ask to race them even though their cars are way faster than the Veloster N because this car is intimidating to those who don't really know what it is because usually when you hear those sounds coming from a hatchback it means business, and this car is no slouch. My brother has an F30 body BMW that's AWD and has more power than my car and I can keep up just fine even uphill. This car goes like stink for what it is, and handles like a dream no matter what your driving style is, comfort or raw speed. Hyundai really got their shit together with this car, I have no regrets from buying it.

Great video! I just recently traded my Elantra GT N-Line in for a 2020 Veloster N. Best decision ever! Seriously the most fun car I've ever owned and a great daily driver! It's hard to drive it in any other mode than N custom. The noises it makes are absolute smile inducers! Handles like a dream and it's quick. Maybe not the fastest thing on the road, but sooooo much fun to drive! Again, great video. Keep up the good work Donut Media!

I own a black 2019 Veloster N, and I love it. It is soooooo much fun to drive. I get compliments on it almost every time I drive it. People will ask me about it at stoplights, parking lots, wherever. I've only seen one other one on the road in my area in the year that I've owned it. If you are thinking about getting one, do it. Also, make sure you get the performance package. It's well worth it!

I just bough a 2020 turbo Veloster in stead of upgrading my 2014 subi impreza for a WRX. TBh i was tired of the cheap drive feel and woe's of having an all wheel drive in an area with no snow and few dirt roads. IF your getting a veloster you MUST get at least the Turbo spec. It comes with so many features i didnt expect and drives like a dream. It doesn't feel cheap or slow. Engine/exhaust and sound system are TOP NOTCH. I'm going to stage 1 it after i hit 5k miles. Try to get to 230 hp and 200 storkes. , as a former Honda employee im happy i went this route.. Ty for the video,. waddup from NOR CAL!

As someone who owns a plain jane Veloster.. i absolutely love it! It's my 1st fianced vehicle, so my options were limited. But i recently saw an N, and needed to know what was up with it!
