The 2017 Hyundai Veloster is a quirky three-door hatchback that is distinguished by its unique design. Coming from the first generation of the Veloster, 2017 brings no significant changes to the previous year. It is powered by a base 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 132 horsepower, while a turbocharged variant boosts output to 201 horsepower. Both are paired with either a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox, while a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission is also available for the turbo variant. The Veloster is primarily FWD, with no AWD option available. Key safety features include a rearview camera and stability control, though advanced driver assists like blind-spot monitoring are missing. On the infotainment front, a 7-inch touchscreen comes standard with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. While not particular notable for performance or luxury, the 2017 Veloster is appreciated for its unique aesthetic and affordability.
