Today, the 2015 Veloster is still separating itself from the crowd. Step on the gas, and feel how actively it increases speed off the line. That's Gasoline Direct Injection giving its 1.6-liter engine a stunning combo of 138 horsepower and superior fuel economy. Even more brilliant? Veloster Turbo, with its twin-scroll turbocharger that raises "own the road" performance to the tune of 201 horsepower. Getting to all of that turbo power is effortless and entertaining, thanks to sporty paddle shifters for the 6-speed automatic transmission.

ROOM WITH AN EDGE. The Veloster and Veloster Turbo are unique vehicles on the road. Inside, Veloster's got class-leading room. Its space is filled with ideas about making technology more accessible. Veloster comes standard with the largest LCD touchscreen in its class - your portal to SiriusXM® Satellite Radio, Pandora® Internet Radio, Hyundai's Blue Link® telematics. Want to plug in and play? Connection options let you play Xbox® in the coziness of your parked car. The Veloster Turbo and RE:FLEX Edition both come standard with a 450-Watt Dimension® premium audio system that deploys 8 speakers, including an 8-inch subwoofer and an external amp, to fill the cockpit with rich, crisp sound. Veloster Turbo owners will also appreciate the way Active Sound Design reveals the engine's sporty character inside the cockpit when you summon up to 201 horses of turbocharged power. It's music to a driving enthusiast's ears.

THE BODY BEHIND THE STYLE. Pop the hood of a Veloster. That's not just any engine - it's Hyundai's 1.6-liter Gasoline Direct Injection power plant that optimizes horsepower and fuel economy while reconstructing combustion for lower emissions. If you're looking at a Veloster Turbo, then you are gazing at an inter-cooled twin-scroll turbocharged engineering so state-of-the-art, it's the same one we've used in our superior sports car designs.

Veloster's 6-speed EcoShift® Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) is the kind of advanced technology found on European sports cars. In fact, Veloster is the only normally aspirated car in its class to offer the seamless shifting of a DCT. The optional 6-speed automatic includes paddle shifters that offer added control over a sportier driving experience.

Helping to handle the role of power are Vehicle Stability Management, which works in unison with the Traction Control System and Motor Driven Power Steering to add confidence-inspiring stability around every corner. Another technology, Torque Vectoring Control, naturally detects understeer on Veloster Turbo and works to correct it with gradual brake modulation. All of which add to the Veloster and Veloster Turbo's 2014 5-Star Overall Safety Assessment.

VELOSTER TURBO R-SPEC A Turbo R-Spec model hone Veloster's performance edge with more steering responsiveness, more aggressive suspension tuning and a B&M Racing® Sport Shifter for the 6-speed manual. All of which boosts Veloster's performance to put you in touch with the road.

OPEN UP, FOLD DOWN Fold down the 60/40 split rear seat backs, swing open the hatch in back...and the 34.7 cubic feet you've just made accessible can be loaded with a dozen duffel bags, a mountain bike, or several snowboards. Even with the rear seats up, there's a good deal of room for making the most of your road excursions.
