Is 2015 Veloster reliable?
 

I plan to buy a new 2015 Veloster as my second car. For the Turbo Manual model, I got a quota about $20225 from local dealers. It is not the best one compared with some shared prices by others in autopriceshare. However, I think it is fair for me and the dealer both. My last car is 2002 Civic and it is really reliable. For the 2015 Veloster, I am not familiar with it. Compared some specialists' reviews, I trust the opinions from current owners more. In your opinion, is 2015 Veloster Turbo Manual reliable? Thanks, friends

Hyundai Engines are fantastic, and the Gamma, being an evolution of the Alpha that's powered both of my Accents, should be no different.

Even the beta that's in my 2001 Tib, which was severely abused, has been fantastic.



My only recommendation is to get the manual. The auto will not only prove slow, the automatic transmissions Hyundai uses are just terrible in my experience. The manuals are just fine for a daily driver, and frankly, you'll enjoy a turbo charged vehicle so much more with a proper clutch and stick.



Above all else do the basic maintenance and the car will last forever. My Accent is just shy of 120,000 miles and under the hood is like new. My Tib has over 155k on the tak and still runs fine.

Driving the automatic and manual Veloster Turbo back to back the automatic was terribly slow. The Veloster should be very reliable though.

I would say ALL Hyundais are reliable for the most part, and as reliable as it gets in the motor area across the board. The problems come in automatics (if you have a heavy foot) and annoying electrical gremlins in a couple cars. Hyundai will fix a new car no problem if something goes wrong, so you really don't need to worry about anything.





My new 96 Accent GT was perfect except for the fact that it was my first car and I beat the everloving sh*t out of it and broke the shifter linkage. 80k miles problem free otherwise.



My 01 Tiburon had a bad radio when I first bought it new. They swapped it out for free and never had a problem with the car since.



Bought an 05 Tiburon GT V6 used. Drove ok, but had electrical gremlins galore and the clutch went out at 60k. Others had the same issues.

If they ever make the Veloster AWD, it will be my next car for sure.
