Rumorpile: Questionable Future For The Hyundai Veloster

This car while popular on Asian Drama shows really has limited appeal in my opinion. It has large blind spots and is really only a 2 person sports car. If it can be done as a profitable model, then I would for sure keep it as a Halo kind of car for them. It does set them apart from the rest of the makers.

I think every auto maker needs a unique auto in their lineup that people buy in lower quantities. Not every auto can be a mass produced and sold to everyone auto.

It sells more than other small halo cars like the 370 Z, Miata, Boxster et al.  However, its pretty much a less than stellar automobile in my opinion. I will not miss it if it goes.

I think it is more interesting than the Corolla Coupe Scion tC

I understand the Elantra coupe is not coming back for the 2015 model year.  Those of us who support any maker with an affordable coupe are outnumbered.

You would have bought it then to extend the support.

No because I don't like Hyundai.  I did buy a Beetle, which is an affordable coupe last time I checked.

Pretty much this. Beetle and Mini are orders of magnitude better than the Veloster.

I have a coworker that bought a Veloster to replace his older Sonata when it got totaled.  Interesting little car, rode in it a couple times..very limited rear head room, though, with the extreme rear window slope..

The Volvo C30 was orders of magnitude a better car, however it came out right as the economy tanked and as such never caught on.

...and the C30 could also fit two adults in back in comfort.
