  • I finally review the new 2019 Hyundai Veloster N with the Performance Package! With 275 hp and a fantastic tri-mode exhaust all in a small and light package, the Veloster N seems to have all the right stuff. In this video I find out if the hype is justified and how it stacks up to its competitors. What do you think about the Veloster N? Thanks to Hyundai for providing this vehicle to review.

    The Veloster N is like an affordable dream car
    It’s got anti-lag system, a slick 6-speed shifter, and it’s got a manual E-brake to be a hooligan!
    Props to Hyundai for this car!

      @Peder Hansen you are comparing one country with an entire continent.
      Europe has seen far more wild hb's over the decades than the US.
      If you buy a hb for looks or to impress others with aesthetics, youre doing it wrong. Not that hb's cant look good they are a product of utility moreso than a coupe for instance.
      Veloster n is a nice package no doubt but its not all that cheap for a Hyundai hb, with largely old design no less, if it starts near 30k. Ive seen 2.0t camaros at $20k new. To be fair, its more that ecoboosts like the stang and fist of course and camaros are very competitive. Ive seen new fists for around 18k, which is also lighter and has a huge aftermarket.

      It retards ignition timing thus combustions becomes unefficient and not complete and depending of how much retard More Fuel escapes the combustion Chamber and ignites inside the hot exhaust manifold, Also, no Fuel added, Is just that the Fuel overrun cutoff Is retarded for a bit so it doesnt cut Fuel when letting off.

    Matt, another great review.
    I couldn't agree more with you.
    I test drove the Type R which was a little quicker, but I had so much more fun in the Veloster N, which feels more engaging and involving.
    I also prefer a smaller, more agile nimble, tossable, more go-kart like car.
    The car that came in second for me is the Ford Fiesta ST, which Unfortunately are not sold any more in North America.
    I liked the N so much so that I just bought a 2020 and pick it up in 2 days.

  • @wildzach
    @wildzach 5 років тому +2

    You’re my gold standard when it comes to backseat space reviews because we’re the same height lol. I personally would love an Elantra N sedan, but i don’t think that’s in the works. Also would love to see the return of the Genesis Coupe. For the VeloN, i wish it would get an AWD treatment.
    You’re right that we don’t give a shit about cheap plastic. I’m also glad they omitted all the electronic nannies (lane keep assist and whatnot). ABS and easily-defeatable TCS are all we need.
    Proud of them for using analog gauges because digital gauges are retarded if we’re honest. Nothing more than a gimmick in a time when tech is all the rage. They are useless in glare, fade over time, look stupid when the car is off, and lack the charm of 3-dimensional gauges. The only reason super cars have digital gauges is because they rev too fast for analog gauges to keep up. In a 4-cylinder ecobox, digital doesn’t make sense at all. Good on Hyundai for not eliminating the volume knobs and handbrakes like Honda. I think it’s a common misconception that new = better. Sometimes, things are clearly moving in the wrong direction, and i like to see cars like the VeloN stand their ground.

    • @MattMaranMotoring
      @MattMaranMotoring  5 років тому +1

      There's rumors that they're working on an AWD system to pair with the N powertrain for the i30N in Europe and it would probably appear on the Tucson N as well. Hopefully it gets worked into the Veloster as an option too.

  • @toddastorino7685
    @toddastorino7685 5 років тому +2

    As a Type R owner, it has 3 huge advantages over the Veloster N--the seats and the shifter and the brakes. The first 2 are absolutely the most important aspects of a performance car, as you need to be comfortable and supported and in addition, you need a communicative and smooth shifter and clutch which are top notch in the CTR. I won't criticize the Veloster N, though, as it is maybe 80 % of the CTR for a $5-6k lower price. I give Hyundai kudos for making an attainable performance car that is way better than a GTI, or for that matter, something like a WRX which is similar in price but using old technology.

    • @npaul4171
      @npaul4171 5 років тому

      The CTR is a more capable car, and in a different class than the N. Hyundai's suspected mid-engined hatch will likely be the car they position to compete with the CTR. The N is dramatically less-expensive, and commonly the price difference is more than 5-6k when considering the N can be purchased well-below MSRP (as the PP N can be purchased for $28k pretty easily here, assuming the CTR is sold without markup for straight MSRP, it's an $8,000 pricing difference at-best.)

    Surprising you said it's lighter...because it's actually a fairly heavy car for it's size (and technically the N isn't even the same size as the others mentioned)
    A civic Si is the lightest as 2899lbs
    Then is the GTI at 3062lbs
    Then the N 3106lbs
    Then the CTR at 3120lbs.
    (all the numbers are the lightest "listed" weights)
    Perhaps the lightness feel and tossibility just comes from being smaller and the shorter wheel base...

      Matt isnt really a track guy. I doubt he knows what "tossability" really is. The civic type r can hang the rear wheels out like a drift if you push it hard enough. And it corners at a way higher G then the n. If anything the type r is the more tossable car.

    Wow, that was probably the most concise and clear review of this car I've ever seen. I think Hyundai did a very nice job with their first attempt at a hot hatch. However, The interior is pretty much garbage, the seats are trashy, and the shifter physically is trashy and performance-wise is average, as per the review. I drive the 2018 CTR and I currently have 11,000 mi. I have taken the car on road trips, and daily drive the car in the city every single day. I don't think the CTR should even be compared to this car because frankly, it's just in a different class of handling and performance, not to mention practicality and Honda reliability. Furthermore, the transmission of the CTR is absolutely phenomenal. Between the clutch, shifter, and transmission/engine (K20) that car is such a pleasure to drive every single day. The only edge Hyundai really has on the CTR is the cars ability to adjust almost every single parameter of the suspension and engine options. There are tons of people who complain that the CTR doesn't have a loud exhaust, but the car is already loud in it's appearance, it doesn't need an exhaust to make an entrance or attract attention. Either way, Hyundai did a very nice job with that car and I'm excited to see what they do with their second generation in 2020.

      but you are forgetting the big factor with mark up civic type R is like 35-40k, the N starts at 28,000 not to mention looks way better than a type R. the type R looks like someone strolled through auto zone and slapped every cosmetic mod they found on it

      @@maxdog421 I disagree. I think the type r looks mean and badass. The nice thing is, not everybody looks at the world the same and not everybody looks at form and fixture the same. You're entitled to your opinion but the rims are ugly on the Hyundai, the interior is piss poor, and Who knows what it's dependability and reliability will be for it has no track record. Meanwhile, the resale value, reliability, dependability, and every other factor goes to the type R.

      DJS I know this comment is a year old but I wanted to say that I disagree with some of your points. While I would LOVE to drive a type r, the Veloster N I just purchased is great. Interior is cheaper but its completely livable and easy to navigate. The seats are comfortable and have a nice design to them. The shifter feels nice, though I haven’t driven a type r so I’m not sure how much better the type r’s is. As for the exhaust, I would have to say that I want a nice exhaust, especially if the exterior is menacing like the type R. I can’t see my car when I’m driving it, but I can hear the exhaust so it adds some of the thrill of owning it. Both cars can do better in some things but both are phenomenal! Hope I can drive a type r soon!

      Likely because this car doesn't really have a direct competitor. Hyundai intentionally priced it in the class of the GTI/WRX/Si/ST, but put its performance between those cars and the higher tier R/STI/CTR/RS, so its really not clear where this car belongs. It will probably get even murkier if Hyundai releases their mid-engined hatch.
