When we first details about the Hyundai Veloster heard curious three-door hatch + We asked if he "do not build on the Honda CRX?" With two six-speed transmission, a power Kick-to-weight ratio and up to 40 mpg, the answer is yes. Oh hell.
This production is near-2012 Hyundai Veloster a hatchback front-wheel-drive wonder has three full-hinged doors (one driver's side, two passenger side) and a tailgate design combines an aggressive new corporate nose of the new Sonata and i40 Wagon rear with a European inspired by a motorcycle helmet.



Exterior is aggressive and sporty by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder direct-injection engine, "Gamma" with variable valve timing, dual secured (D-CVVT) to hold, offers a relatively robust 138 hp and 123 lb-ft of torque for a small shift . Although not as strong as 180-hp Scion tC, the most powerful car in this class, compared with 3060 Hyundai Heavy £ 2584 pound last - almost £ 500 difference.

At a press conference, says Hyundai USA CEO John Krafcik "Somehow I think Colin Chapman would be pleased."
Both transmissions are offered a six-speed manual: a lightweight manual for the purists and the Hyundai A new six-speed transmission of dual-clutch transmission (DCT) was developed for others. Hyundai estimates that the combination of DCT, small engine and low weight is 40 mpg star yield.

No one pushes Veloster yet, at least no one can talk about it, so that all comparisons with the CRX and CR-Z will take to the land of the pure hypothetical. But more attractive on a purely hypothetical country Veloster smoking with a better fuel, more power, less weight, better transmission quality and aesthetics.
Hyundai, like Honda is marketing the car as a "fun to drive" and pointed to the MacPherson struts and coil springs in front. There is also what the V-torsion beam rear axle in the rear, we think the marketing for variations in twist-torsion bar is called to speak. The car is standard on optional 17-inch 18-inch model.

Finally, Veloster compete with the Mini better than anything from Honda and offers more performance in a package just over a Cooper three-door but less than five members of the club door. The Veloster is happening in this summer sale with prices starting around $ 17,000.

US Trying to Perfect its Safety Rating System; Can't we Just Meet EU Standards and Call it a Day?

US Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood has announced a new and improved 5-star safety rating system for 2011 vehicles. If you're interested about your new car, scroll on down for some of the vehicles tested. As of now, the BMW 5-Series (RWD) and Hyundai Sonata are the only vehicles to be top-rated (33 of the 55 models to be tested have been graded thus far).

The NHTSA says the new protocols will also test "side-pole" accidents and crash-prevention systems, as well as using new dummies (hopefully these will be set up properly). One new addition will be the use of a smaller "female" dummy to gauge accidents involving women. Also, new "injury criteria" will be implemented, as well as the use of an Overall Vehicle Score.

NHTSA Administrator David Strickland says, "We want consumers to embrace these new safety technologies as a way to make vehicles safer. We believe electronic stability control, lane departure warning, and forward collision warning offer significant safety benefits and consumers should consider them when buying a new car." Well, yeah.
