‘Decisive’ - a specialist North American magazine - has awarded its ‘2012 Urban Car Of The Year Award to the Hyundai Veloster.
The urban vehicles award evaluates the most stylish, practical and attainable vehicles in North America.
“The Hyundai Veloster is a combination of a hip and edgy image along, with exceptional value to price and outstanding fuel economy that is perfectly suited to urban drivers,” explained Decisive magazine’s Lyndon Conrad Bell. Hyundai’s choice to make its halo car an entry-level model excites us even more. With the Veloster, Hyundai definitely proves that high style and reasonable pricing absolutely can go together.”
The innovative 2+1 door Hyundai Veloster coupe goes on sale locally next year powered by both naturally aspirated and turbocharged versions of Hyundai’s new 1.6-litre, direct injection, four-cylinder petrol engine. Driving through a six speed manual transmission, Hyundai says the Veloster should return fuel consumption of 5.9l/100kms.
