2013 Hyundai Veloster - Fun car.
My 2013 Hyundai Veloster is a great vehicle overall. It is all leather, has a panoramic sunroof, has a turbo engine, backup camera, GPS and XM radio. It is the only 3 door coupe in existence. It is so unique that it is both a coupe and a hatchback. It will seat two people in the back and actually has two doors on the passenger side. The gas mileage per tank is really good; about 425 miles per tank. Right now gas costs me under $25 to fill up. The turbo is fun! I am not a fan of 4 cylinder engines, but the turbo makes up for it. It can get up and go without hesitation. Then interior of the car is in good condition. The driver's side seat is a bit worn, but it is to be expected after four years.

The seats are sport seats which wrap around your sides. It is as if the seat is forming around you. The panoramic sunroof is really nice. It is amazing that the entire top of the car is glass. While the entire top does not open up (that would be a convertible), it looks great on the outside and does open up part of the way. The back up camera is something that I had never had before. It shows a surprisingly clear picture of what is behind me, shows a guide on how to park and there are parking sensors that beep when you get close to something. The GPS screen in my vehicle is pretty large. It switches from day view to night view. There are many ways to adjust the setting and of course type in an address that you need to find. This encourages me to travel to areas that I am unfamiliar with since I am pretty sure that I will not get lost anymore. XM radio is nothing new to me but it is nice that it has that feature. I can use my phone as an iPod, play music through Bluetooth and connect to Pandora as well. I have actually not tried that feature. The door situation is quite unique. There is one long door on the driver's side and two short doors on the passenger side. It also is a hatchback which I am partial to. There is a privacy shade back there but I have taken it out in order to give me more room in the back. It works great. The gas mileage in this car is amazing. I am pretty surprised because I thought that the turbo engine would suck the gas. 425 miles is what I get on a typical fill up. Gas is pretty low in price right now, so $20-$25 fills me right up. I have never had gas mileage that is this good. The turbo engine is super fun. I love the sound that it makes as soon as you turn it on. This vehicle is a push button start and has never had a starting issue. This vehicle is super fast. I frequently have to watch my speed.
I like to sit in my car on my lunch break. I open my sunroof, lay back, and let the sun come in. It feels great and is so relaxing. It is one of the advantages to living in a warm climate.

There are several things that I love about this vehicle. The first thing to mention is that it is super cute. It is longer in front, shorter in the back and has a rounded design. The panoramic sunroof really adds to the attractiveness of this feature. Another things that really like is the turbo engine. Not only does it sound amazing; it drives really well. It is super smooth and super fast. The final thing that I really like about the vehicle is the gas mileage. It does not cost a lot to fill up and you can get about 425 miles from a full tank.

Something negative about this vehicle is the size. I travel off and on and it is difficult to fit a lot of items in the car. Sometimes I feel like I am squished in a clown car. Another negative is the vehicle is low to the ground. That is part of having a sporty vehicle. I have a broken hip and it makes it really hard to get in and out of the car. Without the issue with my hip, I would be fine with it. I really do not have another con as I am quite pleased with this vehicle.

2013 Hyundai Veloster - My perfect car!
I was looking for a cute, sporty, and fun car but nothing was peaking my interest. After weeks of searching my co-worker asked me to describe what kind of car I wanted and suggested a Veloster. I had never heard of the car before but after some research I decided this was absolutely the car for me. It was compact, got great gas mileage, looked cool, had rave reviews, and had a very uncommon safety feature built in. The Veloster is an three door hatchback which is unique and was designed this way for safety purposes. I was sold.

When I purchased a new queen bed I told both my husband and the salesmen that I didn't need to set up delivery as I would just haul it home in my car. They both looked at me like a dumb girl. When I did in fact fit the mattress into the back of my Veloster I will never forget the looks on their faces. It still gets brought up every now and again.

This is by far the most comfortable car I have owned. The seats are great on my back. Its a very low to the ground vehicle and I am short so I almost feel like it was designed just for me. I get such great gas mileage that I only spend $30 a month on gas. For looking like a small compact car it is actually deceptively big inside. You can fit four passengers comfortably, and the cargo room in the back cant be beat. The back seats even fold down to give you more storage. There's no much storage room that I was able to fit a queen bed in the back and thus didn't have to pay a delivery fee. I ... (more)

There's no much storage room that I was able to fit a queen bed in the back and thus didn't have to pay a delivery fee. I have actually hauled quite a lot of furniture in the car. This car has also been perfect for my lifestyle. I am a dog lover and two dogs that go on trips with me. Having only one door on the back is a huge plus because for my dogs safety. The back window is also small and only rolls down just enough that my dogs can get some air but it doesn't roll down enough that my dogs can jump out the window during traffic which actually happened once in my old car. The touch screen in the Veloster is wonderful too. Most new cars have touch screens but this one is the biggest and easiest to use one that I have ever seen. On top of all that, this car has more style than any other car on the market. The interior is filled with little details like blue lighting on the floorboards, and a sleek style on the outside that people notice. All that and the price on these cars is shockingly low.
The suspension isn't great. I live in an area with really bad roads and you can feel every little bump and hole. The hole thing shakes and jumps quite a bit and don't even try going smoothly over a speed bump. The gears have a tendency to slip every now and then, and from what I have read on forums this is a known issue with the 2013 model. The leg room in the back leaves something to be desired. I really dislike that I have to turn the car completely off in order to open the trunk. I really don't know why they made it that way. Visibility is an issue as well. No one else ever wants to dri...

No one else ever wants to drive my car because the back windows are so slim that you can not see your blind spot. I also wish it came with a backup camera like all the other newer model cars.
2013 Hyundai Veloster - Small, quick, and agile
I love how agile this little car seems to be. It's a small car with a ton of maneuverability. Small parking lots and tight spaces aren't an issue at all, as the car needs very little space to turn. Unlike many current cars, it's raised far enough off the ground not to drag, which is important when you travel in some places. This was especially important to me, as I have to cross a gravel road daily - and this car does so with no issue. Despite being small and quiet, it has a deceptive amount of power under the hood. It accelerates quickly when needed, but doesn't guzzle gas during normal driving. It even has an EcoBoost feature to further reduce gas usage - a life saver with current gas prices. The interior is smart looking and a bit unique, and seems to be made of high quality materia... (more)

The interior is smart looking and a bit unique, and seems to be made of high quality materials. And despite the small profile of the car, the front seats are comfortable and have a ton of room. The back seats are a bit more cramped, so though the car is perfect for one or two people, I wouldn't recommend it for a family. It only has three doors, rather than the typical two or four. This compromise gives easier access to the back seat, while still keeping that compact and sporty feel. This isn't a family car. Like most sports cars, the ride is a bit rough. You can definitely feel the road beneath you.
My grandfather lives on a farm out in the country. My old car was simply too low to be able to get up the road to see him. This left me either walking (unfortunate when carrying groceries) or calling someone to come pick me up at the end of the road. The Veloster, while it definitely doesn't look like a "country car," makes it up the road (and through the creek) with no issues. Problem solved!

Small, turns easily, doesn't use much gas, roomy, and comfortable.
