As for the rest of it, the 2012 Hyundai Veloster should offer all the comfort, convenience, cosmetic, and crash-protection features expected in affordable sportsters and perhaps a few more. Front-side and curtain-side airbags will naturally be standard, along with air conditioning, a decent stereo, the now-obligatory music-player connection, snazzy cloth upholstery, metal-look accent trim, a split-fold rear seat, and probably power locks and mirrors.
Options should include the above-mentioned navigation system, plus leather upholstery, keyless entry/engine start, high-power audio, and maybe rear-obstacle detection (suggested by prototype sightings). We also expect a raft of Mini-style "personalization" options including jazzy exterior graphics, plus a sport package or two with racy body addenda, more-aggressive suspension tuning and perhaps a throaty low-restriction exhaust system.
* MSRP: $17,025 -$22,525
