Recently, "charged" cars are becoming more popular. Especially when it comes to modernized hatchbacks, which, in comparison with the original, received not only an improved appearance, but also increased technical and dynamic characteristics.
The presence of such a car allows you to feel all the delights of a hatchback body, and if necessary, show your potential for the track.
The Veloster model has been produced by Hyundai since 2012. Finally, domestic motorists can rejoice, because the four-door hatchback, and even with the Turbo prefix, will go on sale in Russia.
In principle, even the standard Veloster looks sporty and chic. Because the Turbo version has taken on fairly small innovations in terms of appearance. The main attention should be paid to the technical parameters. They really compare favorably with the standard hatchback from Korea.
Many were a little confused by the Veloster's entry into the market, because behind a very bright and dynamic appearance there were very modest opportunities in terms of speed and dynamics. Indeed, under the hood was hidden one single engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and with a capacity of only 132 horsepower.
Well, the right decision on the part of the Korean automaker was to correct their oversight. Let them not use new motor on the civil version, but created a separate version of Turbo, which made it even more interesting.
Let's try to study this car from all sides, evaluate new look, let's look inside, and also see what are now technical specifications will rely charged four-door hatchback.

The main innovation in terms of external design is a full-fledged sports body kit around the entire perimeter of the body. It plays both an aerodynamic and a decorative role. With him, the car really fully claims the title of "charged".
The front part is now adorned with a large trim hexagonal grille, enclosed in a chrome trim. The bumper acquired embossed forms, and the front optics received a curved strip of daytime running lights and separate sections in the front bumper for LED fog lights.
From the side, the car looks more massive, like a bodybuilder. Vyshtampovki, inflated wheel arches, original wheel disks. All this adds to the appearance of the car. Sports exterior rear-view mirrors were supplemented with LED repeaters, the doors got an interesting shape, and the feed obviously gained weight.
Indeed, the rear part has acquired not only a massive bumper, but also an impressive diffuser built into it, in the center of which there are pipes exhaust system. There are two of them and they are made in a round shape. A compact tailgate, a spoiler supplemented with a brake light over a very small trunk glass, optics with LED filling. Yes, the car has changed, and for the better.
Although some will find the rear end very controversial in terms of successful solutions. But that's why every car enthusiast has his own tastes, which allows manufacturers to experiment, try something new, please some and disappoint others. Such is the world of cars.
Dimensions Veloster Turbo 2016-2017
By the way, due to external upgrades, the dimensions of the car have also changed. For the Hyundai Veloster Turbo, the following figures are relevant:
- length - 4250 millimeters;
- width - 1805 millimeters;
- height - 1405 millimeters;
- wheelbase- 2650 millimeters;
- ground clearance(clearance) - 143 mm.
That is, the wheelbase and ground clearance remained unchanged, and in all other directions there were increases.
Photo salon Hyundai Veloster Turbo 2016-2017
There is no need to look for serious innovations in the cabin. Although, it is worth looking at the photo and video materials, as the most striking changes are immediately evident.
It's all about the front seats, which have acquired clearly sporty shapes and architecture, and a new two-tone interior, where they used black and bright orange colors. Now landing in chairs is clearly more comfortable, since support from all sides is excellent, and the quality of the material itself is pleasant.
Of the updates, one can note a slightly modified dashboard and a steering wheel enclosed in perforated leather. This is where the internal changes end.
However, this does not take away all the other advantages characteristic of the Veloster. So, the center console looks very original and interesting, the button blocks are distributed correctly, the multimedia complex is high-quality and modern.
Landing in the back row is quite comfortable in a four-door hatchback, plus new trim materials have clearly benefited the level of comfort in the cabin.
Therefore, make any claims to the manufacturer in terms of clearance inner space we can not. The situation was similar with the Veloster civilian hatchback. Plus, the charged modification pleasantly pleases with sporty notes of the interior. This will be appreciated by many.
Apparently, changes in the cabin did not entail changes in terms of trunk volume. As before, it holds a modest 320 liters. Although this is not the limit, since the transforming rear seats allow you to create a fairly flat loading surface and increase the amount of luggage space up to 1015 liters. And these are already much more solid numbers.
Options Hyundai Veloster Turbo 2016-2017
To date, Hyundai Veloster Turbo is offered in Russia in only one configuration, which, if desired, can be supplemented with some options.
Although the list of equipment available in Jet equipment looks more than solid. After all, it includes:
- xenon head optics;
- LED daytime running lights;
- LED fog lights;
- leather multifunctional steering wheel;
- engine start system with a button;
- full power package;
- leather interior;
- advanced audio system with 7 speakers;
- subwoofer;
- external amplifier for audio system;
- designer alloy wheels with a diameter of 18 inches;
- external rear-view mirrors with electric drive;
- cruise control, etc.
The price of the new Hyundai Veloster Turbo 2016-2017
Many were looking forward to the four-door version of the Veloster in Russia. And here also immediately in the Turbo version. Given the good demand for a standard hatchback, the love for the charged modification should significantly surpass the pioneer.
Of course, prices will be slightly higher, and for some even significantly more.
One way or another, in 2013, when the Veloster began to be sold in Russia, the basic version cost customers 850 thousand rubles. Average level equipment cost almost 1 million rubles, and the most complete Hit equipment was marked by a price tag of 1.1 million rubles.
As for 2015 and a charged version of the hatchback in the Jet configuration, then its starting the price is 1.44 million rubles. The amount is impressive, but given the current dollar exchange rate, it is quite expected.
One way or another, those who really want to become the owner of such an interesting Korean hatchback are unlikely to stop even in front of such price tags. Plus, take your competitors into account and compare the cost of the Veloster with them. Here Hyundai clearly outperforms many, being a more affordable car.
Specifications Hyundai Veloster Turbo 2016-2017
Well, now it's time to check the technical Hyundai specifications Veloster Turbo and determine if the car really deserves to be called "charged".
Open the hood and see underneath Gas engine volume of 1.6 liters. Doesn't it remind you of anything? Yes, it is with this volume that the engine is offered on the standard version of the Veloster hatchback.
But what is it written on the lid? Turbo GDi. Is it really a turbocharged version of the engine, and even with a system direct injection? Yes exactly. As a result, from a modest volume, it was possible to extract far from modest 186 horsepower and 265 Nm of torque. Pretty good considering the weight of the car.
Together with the turbocharged engine, a robotic seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox is working, transferring all traction to the front wheels. The car is exclusively front-wheel drive. And this is very good for domestic motorists.
Of course, the power has led to an increase in the dynamic capabilities of the hatchback. Now maximum speed is 214 kilometers per hour, and acceleration from standstill to 100 kilometers per hour takes 8.5 seconds. Not bad, but not great either.
But the car boasts very modest fuel consumption. For every 100 kilometers traveled, he needs only about 7 liters of gasoline. This is really great, considering the presence of 186 horsepower under the hood.
Some upgrades have also taken place in the steering in order to improve the response of the steering wheel, plus corrected brake system by installing reinforced brakes. Nevertheless, the speed is now higher, which means that it is more difficult to slow down the car.

Conclusion
We got what we expected to see initially, as soon as Hyundai presented its Veloster. Alas, then almost everyone was upset that rather dull technical characteristics were hidden behind such a bright sporty appearance.
The 2016-2017 Hyundai Veloster Turbo modification can become a real bestseller and surpass the standard Veloster in popularity. If this happens, you certainly won't be surprised.
One way or another, it is up to the manufacturer to improve the standard hatchback by adding at least one more powerful motor. Since the car was introduced back in 2011, it is quite logical to see a restyled version of the Veloster in the near future, and in a couple of years a completely new generation. Veloster Turbo can be considered a kind of intermediate stage.
I decided to buy myself a hatchback and for a very long time looked closely and chose between cars, and those that are now on the market and about which I had some idea. As a result, I settled on the Hyundai Veloster. Bought for the design of course in the first place. Inside, I must say, it is as good as the outside. The seats are very soft, wide and comfortable. As for specifications I can say that they suit me. Holds the road well, from a standstill acceleration in less than 10 seconds. I like the overall thoughtfulness of the electronics installed on-board computer. It seems that there is almost everything that is possible to stuff into a car, it’s not for nothing that the Koreans have been preparing for its release for so long. As for the shortcomings, I don’t like the stiff suspension, because of it the road feels good (especially bad))) It’s not very comfortable in it, I think the roof will be a bit low. Well, the lack of one door is a little annoying

Very nice machine! For such money, a car in complete set not bad at all. I have known the Veloster for a long time, I even went to see it live, so to speak, outwardly the car is more than good, in white it looks just like the imperial stormtrooper of their Star Wars. The interior of the cabin looks great too. Confused a little by the quality of the plastic, slightly, as it were, wooden. Electronics tricked out. The music is excellent, the subwoofer. But where the monitor is, there are control buttons and some menu items - almost everything is in Korean, however, it's not so difficult to figure it out. It's cramped to sit inside. Well, maybe I'm just used to spacious cars. Long hood, dimensions will have to tinker a bit. The review back seemed to me not important because of the unusual shape of the body. Behind the ceiling is low, it is not very much. But if you raise your head up there is a panoramic roof and you can see the sky in the clouds or stars (if at night) through the glass. Another minus is that getting into the back seat is inconvenient, because there is no one door. And in general, normal car, it is very spectacular, appearance, as I said, catchy, you are provided with attention on the road with it. In general, I can give her four points out of five possible. Yes, I also forgot, the equipment of the Hyundai Veloster, like all Hyundais, is, in principle, excellent. There is almost everything.

Bought the car not so long ago. Before that, I had a 2008 Honda Civic. My first impressions of the car.
Cool design, people are very attracted, that's for sure! Those who say that the car is ugly have apparently never seen it live. The interior is especially good, perfectly assembled and tactile sensations are much nicer than the Civic had.
I have full set(only there is no cruise, there was a Civic). Excellent full-time music, subwoofer, DVD, panorama, leather electric seats, etc. Great box and engine. Of course, it might be nice to add strength, but I think that it’s the best for the track and city driving. Fuel consumption is very moderate. I got 7-10 liters, but as you know, if you wish, you can run into 15. Moderately stiff suspension (18th wheels, of course, play a role). Our roads are not good everywhere, but there have never been any breakdowns. Handling, when compared with my former Civic is worse, he somehow behaved sharper on the road. The capacity of the cabin, of course, is not so great, beauty requires sacrifice, what to do. A driver over 190 cm tall will have to prop up the roof with his head. Well, in a nutshell, that's all.

Hello! I want to contribute and leave a review about the Hyundai Veloster. I must say that I chose the car for a long time and the choice was very difficult, because I had to choose a car that would suit me and my wife liked it.
In the end, as a result of long disputes and discussions purchased this car! Most likely, the decisive factor was that I really wanted to transfer, finally, to the left wheel. On our domestic roads this car looks like an alien from outer space, well, very unusual.
Several times I noticed how adults and children stopped and began to look at him with delight and even take pictures on the phone. Behind live, it resembles a rally Citroen. Well, for those. service or some serious points, I can’t write in detail yet, I’ll tell you about my first impressions for now.
First impressed me GDI motor, but having climbed the Internet, having obtained information about the Hyundai engines, and how they accept our domestic gasoline, I realized that you can use it. When I got into the car for the first time, I was surprised by the unusualness of the seats (in Recaro style, but, unfortunately, less comfortable). Also impressed by the hard (too) gas pedal. The problem was solved by turning on the economy mode. It slows the engine down a bit. Very high quality music - pleased. The tuner and the stitched navigation system pleased even more. For our roads, the ride of the car is quite hard, and this is not surprising with 18 wheels. It is still too early to talk about consumption, but according to my estimates, somewhere around 8-9 liters. when driving in the city.
The exterior of the car was best described by my wife - red, as I wanted! In general, the car is outrageous, but tasteful. What I did not like is that the camera is stupid reversing. The Koreans, apparently, decided to save on pixels and the picture can slow down when moving backwards. And I was also pleasantly surprised that he shows DVDs in good quality. Well, in a nutshell, that's all for now.

First, he attracted interior design salon. Everything in the car would suit me personally, if not for one annoying flaw. These are of course wheels with R 205*40*18 disks. Very beautiful alloy wheels and look impressive, but on our leaky roads it turns out too hard.
Seriously, it would be necessary to put R205 * 55 * 16, in this case everything will be fine. I was very pleased with the economical fuel consumption in the range of 6-8 liters. with working air conditioning in the city.
The package includes everything except for the cruise. Super acoustics, five speakers, subwoofer, heated leather, multi-steering wheel, excellent image and sound, DVD, MP 3 has bluetooth, the phone has already connected, everything works fine. Color rear view camera.
Panoramic roof with sunroof in two positions, there is a start-stop button. In appearance, the trunk is small, but that's just in mind. If you fold the rear seats, it becomes exactly in the Cruiser.
The engine is frisky and quite economical, 6-speed gearbox. I think it's more than enough for the city. On the tachometer at a speed of 120 km * h, the readings are 2.5 thousand rpm. Very dynamic car, keeps the track normally. Of course, you can’t convey all the emotions here, but the car really seems to be from outer space. There are still few of them in our city and people just look around, wondering where this alien came from.

Hello everybody! So, having driven the car for two weeks, I decided to leave my review. Well, I bought it two weeks ago! My first impressions were: just a space car! A catchy, rather unusual design that attracts the interested glances of passers-by, a complete set of "maxi".
When landing in this " spaceship"all seats are automatically adjustable, with such comfort you don’t even want to get out of the car, especially after you get used to it. Although the engine size is small (1.6 liters) and the power is 140 hp, my baby on her 18-radius wide, low-profile wheels, leaves other cars far behind and, at the same time, consumes gasoline very economically.6 automatic transmission.Accelerates quickly enough, and before you blink an eye, as the speedometer needle indicates 120 km * h. But although there is a maximum speed of up to 240 km / h. h., in fact, she will not do more than 160.
Automatic thinks and switches very quickly! I was very worried about the 18th casting, I was afraid that the car would drive too hard on our roads. But, since all Hyundais have a very soft suspension, then on 18R-wheels the car also passes all the bumps gently. In general, while they make me happy, however, I still try to go around the bumps. But for the winter I will take the 16th or 17th casting. The car enters the corners perfectly, very clearly, the road keeps excellent, especially when you get used to it, the feeling is simply unreal! In the dark, all eyes are attracted by a bright, very beautiful headlights, you just can’t take your eyes off!
Still, perhaps, I will write a few lines about electronics. In the morning, when you just get into the car or if you don’t drive for a long time, then a pleasant Korean female voice chirps about something and cheers up. True, if anyone is annoyed, then it can be turned off using the button on the mirror. In order to make it easier to navigate the menu, I made a flashing into Russian, so for me now everything in the menu is easy and clear.
I also want to put a navigator, but I don’t know how to do it yet. I also noticed that my car is not only paid attention, but also listened to. It has excellent acoustics and a subwoofer. Reads everything: MP3, flash drives, CDs, you can watch photos and videos. It is possible to talk on the phone without even picking it up. In general, the car is very good, I have only pleasant emotions from it!
Hyundai: reviews Hyundai Veloster reviews December 16, 2012
Hello to all! The purchase of this car was, one might say, spontaneous, before that I had been walking for almost a year, so I didn’t compare it with other cars, well, really, I looked at other hyundai a couple of times, looked into the salon, was also interested in the new Genesis coupe, but that’s too much low ground clearance and complete absence normal roads in my city, became a good reason for me to abandon my plans for this car.
And now directly about the Hyundai Veloster itself. Vehicle purchased from official dealer, the entire registration with the traffic police took me only 2-3 hours. Proezdil little more than a month, mileage 2000. Of all the maintenance so far, only changed the oil and changed the filters after running. From the car itself so far only the most pleasant experience! Creative design, rare color, in general, a car in my city is rarely seen, people often pay attention. At first, the back of the car was a little embarrassing - the design of the trunk was rather controversial, but then somehow I stopped paying attention, apparently, I got used to it.
The 1.6 engine is standard, and it’s not that it’s not enough, the car runs quite briskly, within the same speed on the highway, there’s enough power to overtake, but I’m not a particular fan of speed, so I noticed special disadvantages in terms of dynamics maybe this is fundamentally important to someone, but I have enough "horses".
I also like the build quality of the cabin. I am of medium build, height 1.76 so on driving position I am comfortable. Somehow I was carrying a passenger weighing 120 kg from behind. and with a height of 1.85 he said that he had enough space, so I don’t know.
As for seat adjustments. On the driver's seat, they are all electric, while the passenger's are manual. What I did not like in the cabin - glass, or rather plastic dashboard, after the first wash, when exposed to sunlight, scratches are visible. If the sun does not shine in that direction, then everything is fine.
When driving on gravel, the headrest of the front passenger seat, if raised to the maximum, then rattles. There is a cricket lurking somewhere in the trunk area, but so far I can’t find it, because it is heard only periodically. I think it could be a wheel change kit hidden inside the spare tire in a Styrofoam box. There is also a very convenient thing in the cabin - support for the belt in the driver's seat, because after you sit in the seat, it is not easy to reach the rack due to the width of the door.
I don't have time to look at the sky while driving, so a roof with a panoramic view unnecessarily. Passengers, however, like it, they say it's cool, especially if you turn off the display at night, you can see the stars. The trunk for such a small car is roomy, and if you fold the rear seats, you can even cram an adult bike into it. I did not check it myself, but I visually estimated, I think it will fit.
I don't know what else can be added... multimedia is on top, I'm not a big music lover, but I can appreciate that the sound is excellent, the presence of various inputs allows you to connect everything you can. Connecting a Bluetooth phone to a car is also a matter of a couple of minutes. I moved the entire contact system into the memory of the car and now through voice search I can call the phone without touching it at all. I hear the interlocutor perfectly, he me too.
