The Hyundai Veloster: Beauty and Power


They Hyundai Veloster Turbo is perfect for those looking for performance without having to take a huge hit in the wallet. Designed to get you where you need to go FAST, the turbo boasts a full suite of extra tech made to give you the best ride possible, while remaining a classy addition to the Hyundai lineup.
Hyundai might not be the first name you associate with pocket-rocket performance, but the 2013 Veloster Turbo hopes to change all that. Squeezing 201 horsepower at 6,000rpm out of a 1.6 liter turbocharged powerplant, the Veloster Turbo was first revealed earlier this year, and has now had a mightily impressive sub-$22k price tag attached. 
The 2013 model year gets a styling refresh, with a gaping-mouth grille and more aggressive arches. Both 3- and 5-door versions of the hot hatch have been shown off, with prices starting from $21,950 for the 6-speed manual and rising to $22,950 for the 6-speed auto with paddle shift. 
Both get a Gamma turbocharged engine, with a twin-scroll turbocharger that Hyundai promises is good for instantaneous power delivery and minimal turbo lag. There’s also some reasonable economy figures, too – well, reasonable for this sort of performance car, anyway – with 26 mpg city and 38 mpg highway results in the manual.
