The letter came, obviously, from the Veloster. Inside, the design team installed a dashboard resembling the i30 but with a V-shaped center stack. That was a relief for parents who had their kids in the back. Since it had two doors on the curb's side, the rear occupants couldn't exit on the side of the car where the traffic was. The vehicle's sporty look was amplified by the sloped roofline ending into a raked-forward rear windscreen. It had two doors on the driver's side and one on the passenger's side. While most hatchbacks featured three or five doors, including the tailgate, the Veloster offered four. For example, Hyundai looked like it marked a good moment in 2011 to show their Veloster, and it was a unique-looking hatchback. Also, sometimes a vehicle's success depends on the timing when it comes to the market. Some of them are going hits, such as the SUV-coupe shapes, while some are going bust, such as the coupe-MPVs. Hyundai introduced the Veloster as an alternative for the hot-hatch market in 2011 and built the vehicle on top of the same platform used for the Accent and the i20.Ĭarmakers are experimenting with new types of vehicles in their quest to find new market opportunities.

For the downshift, a rev-match system was offered. It included a shift-light indicator on the dashboard, to warn and prepare when to up-shift. But the main features were for the driver. Inside the cabin, the three-door concept was good to take passengers in the rear. The officials said that both works in creating some downforce. On top of the tailgate, there was a small wing installed on top of a roof spoiler. From the side, the specific 18" light-alloy-wheels were fitted with 225/40R18 tires and an option for a 19" set with 235/35R19.

There were specific air-ducts to cool the brakes were part of the image. The big, piano-black grille had the little "N" red badge on it. When compared with the other Veloster versions, the N had something more to tell.

But then, it added what the hot-hatch look it needs: a proper engine. It kept the same 3+1 door concept that made it unique. Hyundai Veloster N was shown to the public in 2018 at the North American International Auto Show as a 2019 model. When the Hyundai launched its N version for some of the models, it couldn't be left aside the Veloster, the only hatchback on the market with 3+1 doors: two on the curbside and one for the driver.

The level of standard safety features was exceptional, as the Velosters were offered with a Vehicle Stability Management, ESC, and Motor Driven Power Steering. Each trim level has unique colors, materials, and accents, further differentiating each model with varying hues and textures. The asymmetrical design carries through to the interior, with a driver-focused interior layout and on the Turbo Ultimate, a contrasting color environment that visually separates the driving cockpit. The cowl point and A-pillar are further rearward and now connect the hood line and belt line into an integrated, powerful gesture. Its stance is more muscular, with higher-volume fenders and wheel arches for a more planted appearance. Much of the redesign is derived from enhanced proportions and volume the new shape clearly conveys focused dynamic performance, even standing still.
