Hyundai Veloster N or Ford Focus ST?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Veloster N is an amazing car and comparable to the Focus ST in a lot of ways. With the Focus ST now out of production, is the Veloster the way to go?

    Omg thank you haha. Its pronounced vel-OS-ster. Not picking on you at all. It's amazing how many people miss pronoun so many car and motorcycle brands and names. Even mugen was said wrong. Other than that awsome video. You got it right at the end though. If your ever not sure watch a video on motor trend first or even a video from the country it's made.

    Spending a lot of time on the Tail of the Dragon recently I have found that having my Focus E30 tuned has actually hindered me up there more then it has helped. The FWD chassis just can't put the power down on corner exit. It has completely helped me understand why they limit the hp ratings on the ST factory. They intend it to perform well in corners and at factory it is pretty close to perfect for that kind of driving.

I did swapped my 14 st3 for a Veloster N and honestly its and all round better car. Performance is there and the car is incredibly comfortable compared to the ford and by that i mean the seats are more soft and adjustable and the drive modes make it a lot more enjoyable in a daily usage. Love it completely.

It make the shifts so much shorter and quicker when wanting to get up the gears. Definitely worth it. Great videos though, I would still choose the focus over the Veloster all day.

    I just started molding my Veloster N and it's actually at the shop right now getting a AFE downpipe, AFE Induction Kit, JB4 tune, Forge tubro Inlet Adaptor, Forge blowoff valve, and Velossa snorkel. The car has plenty of room for improvements and that was one of the reason I bought it. Front wheel drive cars these days can go much farther than 305hp and be just fine.

    Gjeebs have you checked out the “orbis wheel” yet? It basically turns a front wheel drive platform into an all wheel drive just with the wheels alone. They used a civic type R for the prototype testing and it’s very impressive. It’s got a price tag of around 10k but very cool technology moving forward if they can get the cost down.

    You mentioned Albert Biermann but there was a couple M employees that are also now at Hyundai N helping N's development. There are some Audi engineers too at Hyundai but no idea if they are a part of N. Then finally, news was just released yesterday, Tyrone Johnson, chief engineer for the Focus RS, is going to Hyundai N now. Reason probably because of Ford's current direction with the RS and he just didn't want to be a part of it. Hyundai is currently the company enthusiast should be watching for the next few years because we might be seeing some amazing shit like their forever in development halo car.
