Long Term: 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo: February 2013 1361822220
I just couldn't bring myself to lead this post with the image you see on the right.

It breaks my fleet manager heart to see one of ...

Long Term: 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo: Introduction 1359392220
The Hyundai Veloster is indeed an automotive oddball, and that's part of the reason why we're so drawn to it. Even in base form, the Veloster is a cleverly packaged little wonder that's bursting with personality, and with the added grunt and visual aggression of the Turbo model, there's a lot to talk about. Despite not really fitting into any one ...
