I have a 2015 Hyundai Veloster Turbo 6 speed manual.

I have a 2015 Hyundai Veloster Turbo 6 speed manual. Bought brand new and still own as of this review in 2025. I love the way the car looks. It actually has a design and doesn't just look like a wedge ( like a lot of hatchbacks do ). I currently have 97,000 miles on it with no problems to report. Just routine maintenance. Best advice is to replace the standard Hankook tires for some Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S. It is a day and night difference. Really wakes up the car in the handling department. I would highly recommend this model.

Don’t waste your money

My daughter bought a 2015 Turbo Veloster and she loved her car. First year, had issues with the turbo. Second year we had to replace the turbo. Same year, faulty oil pump sensor and basically we are throwing this car away. Her engine is done. Don’t waste your money!

Think twice....before

I thought I did my home work before getting my 2015 VT. I loved it when I first got it. I have every intention to upgrade the car and take to car meets. But 4 months into it....the Purge Canister Valve went bad, follow by the ECU needing to be updated due to losing gas mileage. Hyundai Service where I'm at did not do anything to help. Now the ignition coil is slowly going bad meaning I have to replace that as well. What else could go wrong with this car? I guess I will have to fork out the money to replace some old parts....

Fun car

I've never owned a fun car until I purchased a Hyundai Veloster. She is beautiful and sporty. I love the panoramic sunroof, tight steering, good gas mileage, and heated seats.

It’s definitely a good car

It was definitely a great car to drive. If handled nice and the power was sufficient for the size of the car even though it sounded like that 1.6 liter was working really hard to move me and the dual clutch felt a little overworked as well. I really like it’s funky design and quirky motorcycle like interior. The visibility is awesome so I’d recommend either installing a back up camera or finding one with a back up camera but otherwise a decent little car.

Very cute, quick, eye catching

Great little car. No issues other than a rattle in the dash. Take off the cowl, pad it with rubber tubing where it meets the dash, rattle is gone. Wish the interior was a little more padded, cheap hard plastic. Over all good for the money, lots of extras.

Funnest Car in a long time.

Did not realize how boring my old Subaru was until I test drove and bought this car. Fun and distinctive styling. Small blemishes and chips.

Looks Great

I got the Turbo. Car looks great on outside and inside. The hatch area is larger than other hatchbacks I looked at. The third door on the passenger side is super handy.
