2016 Hyundai Veloster Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2015 | 3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD |
The Veloster is setup like a sports car - stiff suspension, low riding height, and sport seats designed to keep you in place. What this car is not is comfortable. At all. There is almost no back support, and little coushining. On a long trip, it will be PAIN. On roads trampled on by dinosaurs, it will be PAIN. The interior accents also get in the way of resting your legs on anything, so you have to just deal with the space provided, which isn't much. This car is just big enough, and not a milimeter more. see full Hyundai Veloster review |
