If you’ve ever seen a Hyundai Veloster N there is no doubt you had to look twice. This sporty and aggressive hot hatch is more than meets the eye, and it’s no wonder that people get hooked on the car. The 2019 Hyundai Veloster N has already dropped in price, and you can buy one almost new less than $25,000 making it competitively priced among sports cars and hatchbacks.

The Hyundai Veloster N

The Hyundai Veloster N is a true hot hatch — a performance-oriented hatchback. That’s part of what gives it the extra touch of practicality. The interior is spacious and comfortable, and you can rely on the car’s modern features and safety tech to enjoy your daily commute. There is an ample amount of trunk space for your daily errands, trips to the grocery store, and of course your overstuffed gym bag.

With the 2019 Hyundai Veloster N, you don’t have to sacrifice practicality. The back seats are easily accessible with the help of a third back door, making enough space to volunteer to drive your car for a quick lunch break. For a sportier driving car, the Veloster still gets responsible fuel economy, with an average of 30mpg. The front seats are comfortable and spacious, but the back seats are reportedly cramped, making it ideal for small children rather than adults.

A daily driver and weekend roadster

For all of the practicality, the Veloster doesn’t sacrifice a sporty driving experience. Even after the first time driver many owners will boast about the car’s ability to handle the road with agility. It may not take corners as well as a Mazda MX-5 Miata but it does pretty good for it’s size.

You can enjoy this car on the weekends just as much as you do on your daily drive. Roll the windows down and coast down a scenic road, or enjoy the car’s performance. Under the hood is a 2.0L four-cylinder engine supported by a turbocharger. It can go from 0 – 60mph in 7 seconds, and it won’t leave you disappointed. The small engine pushes this lightweight car to its limits with a reported 275hp. Combined with a limited-slip differential and this car offers a surprising amount of performance and handling.

The Hyundai Veloster N proves that you don’t have to sacrifice an enjoyable driving experience for practicality. Even better is the car’s affordable price, giving it a competitive edge over many other sports cars or even standard commuter vehicles.
