The Hyundai six-speed Double Clutch Transmission (DCT) enables fast gear changes and features an electric motor-type clutch that provides improved driving quality, better fuel efficiency, reduced noise and prolonged durability.
Thee new DCT can be driven like a standard automatic, providing smooth and seamless shifting with the efficiency of a manual transmission. Alternatively, the driver can manually select gears using the steering wheel mounted paddle-shift levers or conventional transmission lever - achieving traditional manual transmission driver involvement, with rapid and responsive gear changing.
The Veloster is covered by a five-year/unlimited kilometre warranty.

With a longer single door on the driver side (as compared to the front passenger door) and two doors on the kerb side, Hyundai engineers developed a dual centre rail roof system to ensure structural integrity.
Hyundai's fresh take implements a conventionally hinged rear (third) door on the kerb-side of the Veloster, providing safe and ready access to the rear seats. The kerb-side rear door handle is hidden to maintain an uncompromised visual flow.
Reverse camera and reverse sensors are standard on all Velosters, as are six airbags, LED daytime lights, Vehicle Stability Management (VSM) and Electronic Stability Control (ESC).

Veloster is powered by the all-new Gamma 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine, the smallest Hyundai engine to use Petrol (Gasoline) Direct Injection (GDI).
The use of direct injection technology in the Gamma engine helps deliver an estimated combined fuel economy of just 6.4 litres per 100kms.*
The Veloster engine includes innovations such as a Diamond-Like Coating (DLC) anti-friction coatings, added to the tappets to help reduce friction in the valvetrain and improve fuel economy.
Note: *Source ADR81/02. Fuel consumption will vary depending on a combination of driving habits and the condition of the vehicle.
