[@jays3]

Very interesting race. For those who don't know, FWD's weakness is acceleration from a stop but tend to be faster at a roll due to a more efficient drive train. AWD is best for accelerating from a stop but tend to lose power at speeds due to the drive train and added weight. That was clearly proven in this video.

The veloster N is a 276 hp 260 ft lb 2.0T. The Subaru STI is a 310 hp 290 ft lb 2.5T. The awd and slight power advantage goes to the subaru but it is heavier. Thats why with a stage 1 tune the veloster N makes 335 hp 320 ft lbs and you can clearly see the 250 pounds and the 25 hp let the veloster walk the sti. There are tunes out now for the Veloster N that give you around 345 hp 330 ft lbs with no bolt ons. I have seen 5.0 seconds with the manual stock with an upgraded set of tires. Now the newer cars also have the DCTs as an option, come with sport cup tires, and have NGS overboost that gives you 10 hp and 15 ft lbs of torque for 20 seconds. 286 hp and 298 ft lbs of torque when you press it. Otherwise you have 276 hp and 289 ft lbs. The sonata N with 290 hp with the 8 DCT and upgraded tires are pulling off 4.8 second 0-60s so there is no reason why the veloster wont be in the mid 4 second range with the automatic.

Long time suby fan, always will be but gotta respect sub 14 quarter mile and sub 5 second 0-60 (the 2021 was tested at 13.4 seems lowest quarter) from a 2wd car from the factory lmao pretty wild where tech has brought us

@@8SpeedNate According to car and driver and motor trend,, they pulls 13.4 and 13.7 in the N Veloster..

and they also manages 4.8 & 5.1 0-60 on their best runs... so.. comparing pro to pro test results... real life everyday drivers ?

The Veloster shines on track not a drag car ,but very quick ,I take the N ,maybe because i own one .

[@carwashninja]

I wouldn't trade my N for that Subaru ever. Performance aside, I see those Subarus everywhere. I've owned my N for 2 years and have only seen 2 others on the road. I get compliments on mine almost every time I drive it. It is so much fun to drive!

[@xxtoptankxx6873]

@@carwashninja Right? Sure on a dig the STI is faster, but I bet you go through windy roads and the STI would struggle to stay up with the N. There was a BMW that had like 200hp on the VN but couldn't shake the VN off his ass on windy road lol. Plus STI is pushing 6k-8k over the DCT VN. It's just like the Ford mustang. EVERYONE has one.

2450cc and up is classified as a 2.5L.. EJ25 is definitely not a 2.4L

[@jwkpov734]

@@hotdogy12345 I own 2015 STi and I know that 2457cc but It rounds up to 2.5L. 2457cc - 2460cc - 2.5L I was referring to EJ257 which if you are not in japan, you get 2.5L port injected single scroll turbo charged boxer engine. In Japan you get 2.0L twin scroll turbo charged port injected engine. EJ207 This will be the last generation of EJ engine. (2015 - 2021) In general terms, 2.4L refers to FA24 used in Ascent SUV which it's twin scroll turbocharged direct injection. You usually round up the engine CC one decimal place.

[@HanHsu910]

There is no pop corn sounds coming form the exhaust what did the owner do to that N

[@unixfool]

Equal power and drivers, FWD VS AWD, FWD will always win...It has less weight, as well as more power per driven wheel to work with, with less driveline loss. I saw it happen all the time with the Eclipses GS-T vs Eclipse GSX. In a roll-on, the FWD would always win. At the drag strip, they would lose but have serious trap speed.

[@hotdogy12345]

Can't wait to see the the Kona and Elantra N and the performance they are capable of. Love the Veloster N, but like an even number of doors and more symmetrical design even better

[@RobHTech]

I just found out about the Kona N today. I am so excited. It's like back in the 90s with STI, VTEC, and lancer evo, but now with a car made so specific for enthusiasts. I believe Hyundai et. al. hit the nail hard.

[@user-xi9py8es1s]

@@RobHTech I don't see the point of the Kona N, sure it will be quick like the Veloster, but will never be as nimble. Performance crossovers/suvs will never make sense to me.

Sti's Cobb tune with launch control and flat foot shifting is something to behold. Whole new beast. Hyundai just cancelled the Veloster, it's too bad, the N really brought that car to the forfront.

Hyundai cancelled all the velosters except for the N. 😎 The N is the only model they are keeping.

[@SamCarLegion]

Glad u like it

[@taylorb9860]

I'm not too shocked to see an STi lose a roll race. Its primary advantage is its grip, apart from that the car isn't suited to driving in a straight line with its stock transmission gear ration

[@chrishuber8930]

I also cant wait until they releasr the rear mid engined car that has the 2.5T and awd. They are also going to put the 2.5T in other N cars with upgraded tune and calibration with different internals. They are working on prototypes since last year. They are looking at the 350 hp benchmark.

What was the point of this? Why didn't he launch it in n mode with the elsd locked? He would have had way less wheel spin.

[@techpappee]

The STI price difference is way more than the cost of a tune. Their second generation Ns are not on the market yet. Elentra & Kona N have advancements not currently on Veloster or I30. Hyundai made several changes to the package. Watch the Elentra N unveiling video. They cover the changes coming to N vehicles.

[@davidcosgrove2625]

First the STI does not make 305 HP, dyno it and will find it makes 240 -260 whp untuned ,so many idiots forget hp is crank and whp is the real number along with torque. Same goes for a Veloster N and to compare a STI to a Veloster is a Joke. Subaru's have more tuners and parts vs Hyundai that lacks in tuning and parts. Sxth Element and Lap 3 are the biggest and few others across the Country go to Portland and WA there more then you can count for Subies! Veloster N a real N 239 /259 torque Stock

The STi sport and sport sharp modes don't enhance or change the performance of the car when you're at or close to the peak torque request. The modes only change the torque request profile to make the car feel more sporty in the low to mid range.

[@rafaele.maduro3638]

veloster need to be all wheel drive for better power distribution. Need to put the power to the ground.

[@gengiz]

I own a stock sti 2019 and here in australia we get the i30n no veloster n but same platform and motor and a friend has one. Stock for stock I smoke it from the dig and the roll also I raced bikes and have been driving for 30 years so my gear changes are on point which is crucial in a manual car. I’m quite sure this race has many variables as the drivers may not be shifting great or shifting at the right moment but I can bet my left testicle stock for stock the sti has it beat on both roll and dig. Tunes always improve topend and there is a lot more load on an awd vehicle when speeds get higher unless you have loose surface or less traction. Fwd cars just turn me off to be honest as I’ve owned a couple when younger and the feeling you get driving one is stressful especially when the road has cor ers and camber off camber etc. rear wheel drive or awd only
