The interior gives the driver a dark cockpit with two pieces of luxury; a leather steering wheel and a leather gear knob. But this is a fast and fun car for getting around town at an affordable price while packing loads of tech and component performance.

Deciding is Easy

There are not too many things to decide when purchasing the 2022 Veloster N. Once you’ve made your mind up about the transmission type and paint color, you are just about done.

Drivetrain

Your 2022 Veloster N comes with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that turns out 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels via your choice of two transmission types. The six-speed manual gearbox sounds like fun to most people until they discover the optional dual-clutch eight-speed automatic transmission. The great majority of buyers choose the paddle-flipping wet-box with sequential manual mode capability.

The Hatch is Fast

The 2022 Veloster N with an eight-speed transmission gets a torque boost of close to 20 pound-feet over the manual. So is the hatch fast? Well, the zero to 60 mph in 5.2 seconds and do quarter miles at over 100 mph.

Driver Modes and Tricks

A 2022 Veloster N also comes with selectable drive-modes; Normal, Sport, Eco, and N. The N-mode is where the fun begins as drivers have control over the vehicle’s suspension, limited-slip differential, steering weight, engine response, and more.

Handling and Handling It
