It's a Hyundai Velostar.

Interesting door combination, 1 door on one side, and 2 doors on the other.

Nice looking car. Certainly more pleasing on the eye than the Focus/Astra/Megane.

yes Or indeed any of the other hatchbacks of this size on the market, pretty much.

Looks nice, reminds me of a Megane (probably because of the colour)

Do they do a "hot" version?

If they do, I think that is it, twin centre pipes(which you can't really see) and colour coded calipers.

Nope. 138hp is your lot at the minute.

It's 'Veloster' - well, at least that's what it's called here in the US. They are becoming very popular and this is most definitely a refreshing alternative to other cars in it's class. They have a really nice interior too.
My wife wants one and for only $17k, I think it looks like bloody good value.

Looks like a rip off of the current RS Megane.

Nice looking car ruined by a stupid gimmicky idea.

Just give it 5 doors and be done. I fail to see how it is more expensive to make a 5 door*, and it loses the aesthetic advantages by having the stupid extra door on one side.

  • at least it aint sufficiently cheaper to make to capture back lost revenue from people put off by its' stupid door.

Little known fact 'Veloster' is Korean for 'dog'.

Never ever would I buy a Korean car.
Hateful things.

This is my problem with this and the coupe they did. They just have no grunt for how great they look.
