Make Trouble - Veloster Turbo

2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo


And now the news. For those South Koreans who are playing with their Hyundai Veloster Turbo on Forza Motorsport 4, can we just say that's enough for now because the VELOSTER TURBO has arrived in South Korea! No really, it's here! Drop down your XBOX 360 controllers and head down to your nearest Hyundai dealer to see one! Yes!

Anyway, it still has the same Veloster 3-door design (the additional door is on the passenger side for easy access even in close quarters parking spaces), but this has been fitted with a newly developed Gamma 1.6L Gasoline Direct Injection engine with a twin-scroll turbocharger. This turbocharged GDi engine will produce about 204PS of power and 27kgm of torque. The 6-speed manual version has a fuel economy of 12.6km/L while the 6-speed auto version has a fuel economy of 11.8km/L.

On the outside, the Veloster Turbo did come with a strikingly aggressive hexagonal grille and in the rear, it's somewhat very bonkers to look at. A set of 18-inch gray wheels with chrome inserts completes the Hyundai Veloster Turbo's recognized style. On the inside, you would get full leather seats with the word "Turbo" stitched into the seatbacks and an exclusive Supervision Cluster offers the driver information in a larger, clearer and more interactive format.

And the cost, 21,950,000 Korean Won for the Veloster Turbo 6MT while the Veloster Turbo 6AT is priced at 23,450,000 Korean Won. Well yes, but don't expect the Veloster Turbo coming to the Philippines despite that HARI previewed the Veloster since the 2012 MIAS but hasn't announced the on-sale date and pricing. Don't expect smuggling this one, please...

If you took that out in the streets of Manila, the police would stop you because it's smuggled and you can't park that somewhere in Manila because you might just cause a menace. :P
