(ell almost. )or all their sensi%le well*%uilt cars# there is a re%el. +he re%el is called the Hyundai Veloster. (hen you see it for the first time# you notice that on the right# there is , door# and on the left there are - doors. &till thin! Hyundai ma!e sensi%le cars. Performance /nder the %onnet you$ll find a ,.0*litre 1etrol engine# 'roducing ,23!( and ,045m of tor ue. +his gets you humming along 6ust nicely# and the car has a definite s'ortiness to it in the drive. 1ower could %e more# 7cos you$d li!e to assume that a car with an odd door configuration is ca'a%le of !illing you# %ut alas you$ll have to wait for the %on!ers version coming later in -2,8. Connected to the engine you have a choice of - gear%o9es. " standard manual gear%o9 and a :ual Clutch gear%o9. )or the e9tra R-2!# we say get the :C+ ;%o9. Economy Claimed fuel economy is <.8 =>,22!m# which isn$t too sha%%y# %ut once you get your foot down you uic!ly 'unch that num%er near the ,2 =>,22!m mar!. ?ou don$t e9'ect a hot hatch to %e @that@ economical# %ut you want some sem%lance of sanity when you do have to fill u'. (ith our testing we found the real fuel economy to %e closer to the A =>,22!m mar!. (e didn$t get a chance to test it on the o'en road# %ut we$re 'retty sure than a good long run would have yielded some stellar results. Tech Hyundai are trying to 'osition the Veloster into a more 'remium s'ace. (ith a 'rice tag 6ust shy of R322!# you$d e9'ect as much. Bn the tech goodie %ag# you$ll find an =C: screen# and full Bluetooth integration# allowing you to connect you 'hone for not only calls %ut audio as well. +he steering wheel has a fun!y CVD sha'e on the inside# and is littered with %uttons to control all !inds of audio controls. +he sound system isn$t too sha%%y either: you get 8 s'ea!ers# - tweeters# a centre s'ea!er and a su%woofer. +his is enough to ma!e your friends driving in Goodwood a %it 6ealous.

Comfort +he seats are %uc!et sha'ed# %ut none of that hard car%on fi%re stuff that gives you %ac! ache. +heir comforta%le# hug your %ody# and you could comforta%ly travel a long distance in them. :es'ite the o%vious hot hatch a''eal of the car# the ride is incredi%ly amica%le to every day use. +he 'assenger door is a little easier to o'en than the drivers side# 'ossi%ly %ecause the driver side door is twice as %ig. +he driver side seat%elt sits a little %ehind the front seat# so you$re always ma!ing a twisting stretching move to get the seat%elt. Practicality Even with its odd door configuration# it$s 'ractical. Kids always get in on the non*road side# so that$s actually very 'ractical. +he %oot o'ens wider than a hi''o$s mouth and is remar!a%ly s'acious# larger than it loo!s from the outside. +he rear seating s'ace is goodF you$ll get two adults in the %ac!# %ut you won$t drive them to Go$%urg without some grum%ling. Conclusion &o as far as odd*%all cars go# the Veloster is high u' there# %ut at the same time it manages to maintain a sur'rising amount of CnormalnessD to it. Bt loo!s a lot more fun!y than your average hatch# %ut if you loo! closely at the Hyundai i32 then you can see a lot of Veloster in it. +he 3 doors add some flair and some character# and the 'seudo %onnet scoo's are a nice touch if you$re ,< and use loads of hair 'roduct. Host of the interior Iand some of the e9teriorJ comes with lots of ;V$ sha'ed goodies. &o the %ig uestion is to %uy or not to %uy. Honestly# B thin! the Veloster is 'ure gold. ?ou get all that fun!y off %eat car# that loo!s cool as goes well# %ut you can drive it every day the same way you could drive an i32. Both of these cars from Hyundai can %e found here.
