Quick Look

Hyundai has decided to not make any major changes to their new 2016 Veloster model. It is very difficult to differentiate the two models side by side. There definitely could have been a lot of changes regarding concerns about the 2015 model, but don’t worry, this new model is still worth its value and not bad at all.




Full Review

The new 2016 Hyundai Veloster is a great car and is competing pretty well with its competitors like the MINI Hardtop, Subaru WRX, and Volkswagen GTI. Even though Hyundai has not decided to make drastic changes to the new model, it is still a very likable car. It has an approachable look both outside and in, and with an engine that is powerful and fuel efficient enough to grab people’s attention on the market.

The exterior look on the new 2016 Hyundai Veloster is the same for the most part. Starting off with the grille, they went with their signature hexagonal shaped grille which seems massive compared to the Hyundai logo located in the middle of it towards the top. The headlights have the same design with LED lighting near the outsides of the shape. Moving on to the fog lights, they are sticking with the standard, circular shaped look. Taking a look at the rear view of this hatchback also looks identical to the 2015 model. They have decided to go with the round shaped tail lights because it matches the overall build of the hatchback, a round car. Hyundai has also included a spoiler on the back of the hood of the car reaching out the rear of the hatchback. It gives the Veloster that sportier edge.

The interior design seems to have a very sporty yet comfortable look to it. The layout of the front is the usual layout Hyundai seems to go with, if you have owned a Hyundai in the past you will be able to recognize it right away. They have added trims to the front seats to add to the design which may be one of the factors that give the interior a sportier look. Another positive for the interior build is the space Hyundai provides for both drivers and passengers. They used the hatchback space to give the rear passengers more leg and head room, instead of increasing the size of the cargo space. Cargo space is very important but there are a lot of people out there who really admire extra space to sit comfortably in the rear of the car.

Under the hood we can see Hyundai carry’s over its powertrains from its previous model to their new 2016 Hyundai Veloster. The regular models will include a 1.6-litre direct-injected four-cylinder engine. It will be able to push 138 horsepower and 123 pound-feet of torque with its 6-speed manual transmission. With its 6-speed dual-clutch automatic it will be able to push 132 horsepower and 120 pound-feet of torque. Both transmission will be equipped with the EcoShift dual-clutch transmission.

The Hyundai Veloster is a great hatchback overall even though there aren’t that many changes done to it. A combination of the look from the outside and in, and the very fuel efficient engine under the hood, a lot of drivers will be attracted to this new model. In addition to this hatchback, there are also other editions to this line which are even better in terms of looks and power.

Power and Performance:

The Veloster has some humble beginnings, with powertrains based on the Hyundai Accent and some underpinnings borrowed from the Elantra; but Hyundai has done a great job engineering and tuning this offbeat little coupe to mostly live up to the sportiness and performance it hints of on the outside.

Interiors and Special Features:

The 2016 Hyundai Veloster is a lot of things, all at the same time. By design, it's some sporty coupe and a stylish oddity, with some of the functionality of a versatile five-door thrown in the mix.

While we can name plenty of vehicles that have tried to be genre-benders in such ways and failed to pull it off, either visually or functionally, the Veloster succeeds, for the most part.

Safety features:

The Hyundai Veloster carries a mixed set of information with respect to safety. While there's a good set of features, its occupant-protection ratings aren't quite top-tier.

All Veloster models carry a long list of safety features, including electronic stability control, anti-lock brakes with Brake Assist, and six standard airbags. Models equipped with the dual-clutch transmission get Hillstart Assist Control, to help keep the vehicle from rolling backward on standing starts up steep inclines. A rearview camera system and a driver's blind-spot mirror are included on all models.
