2012 Hyundai Veloster 1.6 non-turbo from North America
Summary:
Good, reliable, economical bang for your buck
Faults:
Have had to reset the audio system twice due to the system freezing up. That was within the first 30k miles. No audio problems since the dealer did a software update.
At approximately 50k miles the cruise control switch would fail intermittently. Dealer replaced switch.
No further problems.
General Comments:
Car is a little slow on acceleration, but makes up for it at the pump. I average 36 MPG driving 102 miles per day. My commute is a mix of highway and mountain driving at a zippy pace.
The dual disc automatic takes a little getting used to. I mostly drive it in manual mode, because in auto it struggles to find the best gear to be in when going uphill.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

If it's fun and sporty, why only five out of ten for performance?
