Scottf200 and John you are both correct. It has a 16.5 kWh battery (not a 16 kWh), and it doesn't have a turbo. I flubbed. The video's been updated, and the error has been corrected.

Johnny the video is at the top of this post. Do you not see it?

Mella, we actually just ended up driving our Veloster through the mountains. It handles the steep hills just fine, but you'll end up having to keep the engine speed (revs) higher, which will reduces fuel economy and increases engine noise inside the cabin. But the car had no issues maintaining highway speeds.

Mark,

Good catch. For some reason the IS story didn't make it into this post. Not sure what happened. I've updated the post and put the IS story in it. Thanks again.

David,

We've only had our test car for two weeks. We'll have it for six months. Stay tuned for more.

James, we've had the car for a week. We'll report more over the next six months.

Tyler, not sure what you mean we deleted your comment. We see both of your comments. Also, I take full responsibility for the damage and feel terrible.

Robert, we sincerely apologize for this error. We are correcting the mistake right now.

Robok2,

Thanks for the comment. It's on the list of things to do but there are only so many hours in the day. Right now we are trying to push out 27 videos from the show before EOD today.

Thanks for your support.

Thanks Robok2. Glad you enjoyed our first impressions.
