Hyundai Veloster Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2015	3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	The Base model Veloster gets decently good fuel economy, thanks to the DCT. 27 City, 34 Highway is the adjusted EPA estimate, but I have achieved almost 42 MPG before on an economy cruise, just by driving with great care towards economy (but not hypermiling). see full Hyundai Veloster review
2013	3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	I get on average 33mpg with mostly tollway driving at about 70mph or higher. see full Hyundai Veloster review
