Hyundai’s Veloster coupe is being put through its paces ahead of a 2011 launch and these pictures prove that little will change from the stylish 2007 concept launched at the Seoul Motor Show.
The Veloster is a radical departure from the Coupe it replaces. But cars like the VW Scirocco have injected the small coupe segment with a sense of new style that Hyundai simply has to match if it is to succeed.
Clearly visible on the test car are the suicide doors previewed on the concept which mimic those on the MINI Clubman. Hyundai has promised to cater for right-hand-drive markets, unlike the MINI.
The production car will also retain the Saab-style wraparound windscreen and tapered roofline that gave the Veloster concept such a dynamic profile. It will be sold as a 2+2 and will be around 20cm longer than a Honda CR-Z.
