The New Hyundai Veloster Unveiled

Published Date: 27th May 2007

Hyundai recently unveiled its new Concept Coupe at the Seoul Motor Show. Named the Veloster - apparently a mixture of ‘velocity’ and ‘roadster’ - this new model has a 2.0 litre/4-cylinder engine and 5-speed gearbox.

With a curvaceous body and 20" alloy wheels this new model is shorter and wider than Hyundai’s current Coupe. It features a full-length panoramic glass roof that stretches from the windscreen to the lip of the boot - with a body coloured central beam. To continue the sporty look the Veloster has wide wheel arches, a central exhaust pipe and a large grille.

With 2 doors, the Veloster has a 2x2 layout inside and has a retro feel – with retro radio dials and red backlighting. It also has modern features like the docking area for the MP3 player in front of the gearstick.

The new model Hyundai Coupe is due out in 2009 and the Veloster could be a good indication of how the new Coupe will look. The Hyundai Coupe is good value for money in comparison to similar Coupe’s like the Nissan 350Z, the Mazda RX-8, the Audi TT and the Alfa Romeo Brera.
