Hyundai Veloster: Style and Substance - Times of Oman
When Ali Al Habsi, Oman’s footballer superstar, launched the all new Hyundai Veloster Turbo recently, the idea was clear — Hyundai is targeting youth looking to buy a sports coupe. What is the first thing that comes to mind when one thinks about the Hyundai Veloster. Before driving it, the first thing I thought of was its doors (a unique 3-door design), but after taking it for a spin, I can tell you, you shouldn’t be thinking about its doors, you should be thinking about the ride. Featuring a more powerful 1. 6 Turbo GDI engine, the Veloster Turbo is capable of producing a maximum of 204 horsepower and 265 Nm of torque, and can reach 100 km/h in 8. 4 seconds – 1. 4 seconds faster than a standard model. From the outside, the Veloster Turbo comes with a sportier, sleeker design and is equipped with 17 inch alloy wheels as standard. While many, perhaps most, buyers will make their decision based on the distinctive looks of the Veloster, there’s plenty to love about the driving experience. I was able to spend a couple of hours on a closed road circuit with plenty of challenging corners and I must say the Veloster performs brilliantly. Source: timesofoman.com
