It really always puzzles me why don’t you have 2 million subscribers... your video line, your texts, product exposition, humor, overall quality are way better than of those who have millions of subscribers. You may count me as two subscribers, I raise my both hands for you)) I’m sure all of your 78K subscribers would do the same! Thus we just got you 160K followers! Cheer up!) We’re with you!
This isn't really my type of car anymore, but if I was still into small-ish hot hatches, I would seriously consider a Veloster Turbo Ultimate, or the upcoming N version. Hyundai is really doing it these days, I'm impressed!
Fun Fact: back in 2011 a Hyundai ceo John Krafcik said (about the Veloster Concept) it's designed to be a four passengers Honda CRX Si. Anyway awsone reviews. Cars seems to be super Fun to drive. Waiting for the N
Mr. Pink He doesn't use the word "the" when using car names. Its never "the car" its always "car." You'll hear it. 5:24 5:52 Now see if you can unhear it.
Seriously, one of only like 5 channels I have notifications turned on for and I watch every video even when it's a lame vehicle like a Veloster or Ecosport . Happy to see that he seems to have a nice following building up considering this video is at 5k views in 18 hours. Hoping he can work up to 50k views per video average because that seems to be when UA-cam's algorithm starts to give the channel a push in the suggestions. He certainly deserves it.
You may not have 2M subscribers, but as one of your subs I appreciate the attention to detail you put in your videos. You are top 3 on UA-cam in my book my friend.
Great Review Tom. This redesign was well done in my opinion. The driving dynamics seem legit and acceleration is certainly competitive. The interior plastic thing is a let down but something had to be cut to keep reasonable pricing.
We appreciate your videos ! Though surprised You guys aren't Million subscribers big yet. Your content is helpful and both funny sometimes. Thanks for the break down !
I just checked Hyundai's site. Adaptive Cruise Control (they call it Smart Cruise Control) is only available on the Ultimate trim with DCT. I don't know what the major malfunction is with Hyundai/Kia (and Subaru while I'm at it). Many other companies figured out how to combine manual transmission with adaptive cruise control (obviously without low-speed support).
I love Driven car reviews, some of the best in the business. I particularly loved the boxster 981 review. And, I bought a 2018 Tiguan based on Tom’s review of it. Nice work as always!
Hey what's happening I've purchase a first gen Hyundai veloster turbo & one of my roommate bought a Hyundai veloster turbo ultimate his was color mat gray
Driven Car Reviews Tom I do apologize I should use my glasses. I thought I read 800K plus Subscribers. That wasn’t meant to insult you in any way! Here’s to the upcoming 100K subscribers! please forgive me Tom. ;)
I like the instrument panel on the 2019 VW Jetta SEL. I would love to get your take on that car. It handles nicely and seems quieter than the previous year models
Because the windshield needs a special coating that is very expensive. I've been told it can add $1,000 to the price of the glass. Something you won't want to pay for when it comes time to replace it.
For $30k, it seems that the interior is a bit behind competitors. I sat in a lot of Hondas recently, and aside from the awful touch only controls (I think they've since started rolling out actual volume knobs), the cabin space wasn't nearly as hard and unappointed.
I'd have to drive them back to back to give you an accurate assessment but my educated guess is that the VW would edge out a win. But it is more expensive.
Tom you crack me up, I had to laugh at the “vitamin T” comment. The remark about a 3rd rear passenger being a beverage also got me laughing. I do love watching your reviews, there are a lot of car reviewers on UA-cam but non are as professional as you!
#savethemanuals...when there are no lane markings, the entire surface is your lane; besides, it's just paint on the road anyway. I might consider a Voelkster when its time to replace my Mk4 GTI, but right now, I have no reason to. I'm also a fan of Soul! turbo, but the Veloster is a better driving car and comes w/3 pedals; the Soul! does not. What did you think of the interior noise - good, fair, annoying? Did it have a donut spare? Is this car on par with a Civic Si? Mazda3 2.5?
Love the size and three doors on the Veloster. Really wish the Rspec had a LSD like the Civic SI given price is similar. Hyundai seemed to go 90% of the way again with the VT. Gorgeous car. Like it a lot. The N should be exciting of priced rightt.
Strictly speaking for myself here, but Tom's channel really should have 2 million subscribers. He's one of THE best car enthusiasts on social media. Guy knows his cars and he's very professional. His reviews are informative and entertaining at the same time. He has excellent camera presence. Unfortunately, the world we live in doesn't care. Instead we get these douchebags, pardon the language, acting like an imbecile in front of the camera showing off their leased Lambos and McLarens with 1 million subscribers.
Tom, do you really believe that Hyundai has shed the "cheap budget car" label? (Based on what I see and read, it appear that Hyundai does make quality vehicles. However, I feel old "cheap budget car" stigma is still around. Just my thoughts....)
Tom, I miss those roads between Fall City and Carnation now that I've moved to the South Sound. Many happy hours in my car and on my bike. Fortunately, there are some great roads over on the Peninsula. :) As for the Veloster, I'm disappointed that Hyundai has elected to put the "N" treatment in the Veloster in the US rather than in the Elantra (the i30N in other world markets.) Looks like a missed opportunity to me.
Well, you can always make the trip north to drive Stephan. And there's always the chance the Elantra N could make it to the US. Let's see if the Veloster N builds a business case for it.
Well then technically we're both wrong. This from the Hyundai- "Further, there is an over-boost function that raises peak torque output to 202 lb.-ft. under maximum acceleration". My bad for not mentioning the extra 7 lb-ft. Wonder how noticeable it is...
@@DrivenCarReviews lol thought it was 205. It is noticable especially compared to thelast generation. The engine feels a lot stronger, more refined, and has less lag.
@@DrivenCarReviews i cant wait until the theta 3 engines come out so the veloster turbo gets the 2.0T theta 2 with 245 hp and the veloster N will get the 2.0T theta 3 with 305 hp. I cant wait for the RM16 2.3T awd 360 hp and 350 ft lbs to come out. The theta 3 will be 2.0 to 2.5 liters and thebase 2.5 will have 210 hp and 200 ft lbsin the base sonata. There will also be 2.0T a 2.3T and a 2.5T forgenesis to replace the 3.8 v6.
Great review and I know you love the mazda mx5. It's what got you into reviewing cars. I bought a nd in 2016 and it's a big pile of rotten ownership expirience unlike my 2005 Hyundai Getz. I have been recommending Hyundais and now Kias to all my family and friends. Have been thinking since my poor decision to buy an overpriced new mx5 with a non existant warranty, that if Hyundai or Kia made a light weight rear wheel drive only this brand would knock the mx5 out of the water. Still much better value, quality and warranty. I'm sure this will eventually happen but it takes some years for some to change their mindset. Que the comments that argue that mazda is so good and how can I say they are not.
No, just lost and distracted. I saw her earlier in the morning driving on the wrong side of the road. Glad none of my subscribers aren't stupid enough to text and drive!
I hate screens that come up for a HUD, they have been around for decades at that's the best that some can do? Plus, and this is a Hyundai thing, that start up "system check". The subliminal message to me is "there could be something wrong, lets do a quick check". Not very confidence inspiring.

Your Channel deserves 1,000,000 or more subscribers because of your unique reviews!
Great job!
Fun Fact: back in 2011 a Hyundai ceo John Krafcik said (about the Veloster Concept) it's designed to be a four passengers Honda CRX Si.
Anyway awsone reviews. Cars seems to be super Fun to drive. Waiting for the N
Thanks Tom.
Yet another great production.
One of my favorite cars, super stylish unique and versatile!
I see new car review from Driven Car reviews, I click.
Mr. Pink He doesn't use the word "the" when using car names. Its never "the car" its always "car." You'll hear it. 5:24 5:52 Now see if you can unhear it.
In order to reduce my carbon footprint, I use "the" as little as possible.

If the N version is under 30K they will sell so many it's gonna be nuts!
Basically an Elantra sport, same engine and transmission, just with a different model name and design. Hyundai stepping up!
Great car and review Tom!!
Love your reviews Tom! Thank you for your time and effort...
Thanks Cornbread70's. Much appreciated!

I love all your videos Tom! How were the seats though?
question : sir, is manual Transition version of this Turbo Ultimate coming with " Adaptive cruse control " ?? thank you for your help
I'd love an i30N in this color scheme :)
Skøut Wish it was coming to the US, rumors are rife!
What's the point with having 1 door on the driver side and 2 doors on the passenger side?
I love Driven car reviews, some of the best in the business. I particularly loved the boxster 981 review. And, I bought a 2018 Tiguan based on Tom’s review of it. Nice work as always!

I see 1MIL Subs coming soon to this channel Tom. :)
Ha! I don't buy subscribers. / ; ^ )
Driven Car Reviews Tom I do apologize I should use my glasses. I thought I read 800K plus Subscribers. That wasn’t meant to insult you in any way! Here’s to the upcoming 100K subscribers! please forgive me Tom. ;)
Tom your reviews are very good
Is this the same place where the GTI slid into the snow?
Nearby but not the same road. And it was mud.
Excellent Review
I like the instrument panel on the 2019 VW Jetta SEL. I would love to get your take on that car. It handles nicely and seems quieter than the previous year models
Hows the road noise in this car?
Tecometer? 2:00 I cant do this anymore.
It's a HUD tachometer guage with a digital reading speedometer in the middle. Look again
Why not have the heads-up display reflect directly off the windshield?
Because the windshield needs a special coating that is very expensive. I've been told it can add $1,000 to the price of the glass. Something you won't want to pay for when it comes time to replace it.
For $30k, it seems that the interior is a bit behind competitors. I sat in a lot of Hondas recently, and aside from the awful touch only controls (I think they've since started rolling out actual volume knobs), the cabin space wasn't nearly as hard and unappointed.
Please reveiew the veloster N 2021 !
How's the ride quality compared to a recent GTI over rough-ish surfaces and/or highway expansion joints?
I'd have to drive them back to back to give you an accurate assessment but my educated guess is that the VW would edge out a win. But it is more expensive.
Is this Red or Orange? I always get confused !
Is it asymmetrical even if you can never see both sides of the car at the same time? (In reality not photos of course)
Park it front of a giant window pane and then you can see both sides at the same time because of the reflection. Problem solved. You're welcome.
Han Solo drives a Veloster Turbo Ultimate
How was the dual clutch ? Fast
Great reviews... But can you add on screen text of the numbers you are saying.
You can put on the subtitles.
@@jody024 not always reliable ☺️
1:25 getting Prius. Plus the Honda Accord base looking rims don't help. Little Aztec to boot. nice design!
Great views from our Northwest :)
Tom you crack me up, I had to laugh at the “vitamin T” comment. The remark about a 3rd rear passenger being a beverage also got me laughing. I do love watching your reviews, there are a lot of car reviewers on UA-cam but non are as professional as you!
Once you tune these, you'll feel that power and torque steer haha.
what is the difference between ultimate or N?
Did you not watch the end?
Por qué en Colombia no viene con todas estas características. Siempre lo menos y por más valor
Good car♥ good veloster!!
I really love this car ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ i want to get it really
This is the Honda crx of the 2010's

Road noise is average for a car in this class. I suggest driving all of the cars you mention to see which one speaks to you.
Love the size and three doors on the Veloster. Really wish the Rspec had a LSD like the Civic SI given price is similar. Hyundai seemed to go 90% of the way again with the VT. Gorgeous car. Like it a lot. The N should be exciting of priced rightt.
This car also has an overboost option 205 ft lbs

Thanks man! I just do what I do. It's about trying to get it right, not subs (though that might help the bottom line).
My theory is that it was supposed to be Velostar, but someone at the badge factory screwed up - and they went with it. Those doors though...
Don't think so. But did you ever hear the story about the Mitsubishi Starion?
Yes I have, AND my friend's Starion said "FEUL" on the gas gauge!
Fall City and Carnation WA, my backyard
Veloster Roadster would be cool!
It's actually weird that Hyundai-Kia group don't make any roadsters
JFCW yea it would be cool possibly in the future
Tom, do you really believe that Hyundai has shed the "cheap budget car" label? (Based on what I see and read, it appear that Hyundai does make quality vehicles. However, I feel old "cheap budget car" stigma is still around. Just my thoughts....)
Anyone that thinks they make cheap budget cars these days is not paying attention.
Why anyone would buy anything other than the r-spec is simply beyond me.
I just want a 5 doors Veloster
I'm sure a good fabricator and a lot of money can make that happen.
hyundai just thought recently : hey guys, lets start making cool cars

I like the i30 and the Elantra, but I hate the Veloster.
Actually your wrong. Max torque is 205 ft lbs with overboost.
Well then technically we're both wrong. This from the Hyundai- "Further, there is an over-boost function that raises peak torque output to 202 lb.-ft. under maximum acceleration". My bad for not mentioning the extra 7 lb-ft. Wonder how noticeable it is...

29k?! I like this but thats GTI money, and whether you like it or not it is the standard for a reason.
I suggest you check back on Tuesday with my video on the Veloster N. Still GTI money but...
I don’t understand the door thing it has no practical purpose

This was such a breath of fresh air to see a car review from Tom. So sick of the blandmommy SUVs. Great work

I bought a low-milage '15 Turbo because I didn't like the syling changes in the '19. The interior is AWFUL-looking and the exterior isn't much better.

2 minutes in the vid and I'm sick looking at this "car"...... well done H-what-ever.........

why are all you guys even fucenk reviewing this car??? its a skin and exterior upgrade... same fucken engine...drive train. no new new here ffs
Does it come with a fedora and a douche flute? Those are popular with the Veloster crowd
Thumbs up for your review, Tom, but THAT is a sad, sad vehicle, which gets a thumbs down from me. DOWN. Baaaad car designers.... BAD!
I hate this car.
