Impul 845S

From the Nissan Infiniti, which was greeted as a luxury formal girl

Wearing a veil of elegance.

Impul 845S appeared.

Tokyo Auto Salon dress up car category Excellence Award winning car

From the machine born by Hoshino Impul

There are times when it's a traditional dress-up car.

This Infiniti Q45-based special car, called “Impul 845S”, by Hoshino Impul Co., Ltd. won the dress-up car category excellence award at the previous Tokyo Auto Salon. Through the test drive this time, I realized that this was the right award.

The concept is luxury and luxury. This is the identity of the Impul 845S.

Before we get started, let me explain how the car came about.

Speaking of Infiniti, it is positioned as a high-class formal car under the President in the Nissan passenger car range, and it is a car that does not suit the words "dress up" and "tuning".

We asked Mr. Shigenori Kobayashi, chief producer of Garage Impul, what kind of concept Hoshino Impul Co., Ltd. decided to modify for this Infiniti.

“From the beginning, we did not treat Infiniti as a special case. The same is true for the Infiniti this time.

However, in the case of this car, what is slightly different from other lineups is that we have taken into account the differences in user demographics. That's what it means.

In a sense, this project was a big adventure in the first place.

There was a response that exceeded our expectations,

To be honest, I'm surprised."

Impul 845S, as is customary for Impul

This car named is basically not a complete car. The car we tested this time was exhibited at the Auto Salon, a demo car owned by Impul, fully equipped with Impul special parts.

First of all, there is the dummy grille, which is a major point in terms of appearance, but it is really cleverly attached to the original bonnet. I see, the expression of the car is changed. Such a small modification makes a big difference. Personally speaking, I prefer this 845S

In addition, the original front and rear bumpers have all been removed and replaced with FRP bumper spoilers. A total of 4 fog lamps are built in on the left and right, and the front spoiler and the rear spoiler with slits with nets are all well-designed. And, as a staple of this kind of dress-up, side skirts are attached, and a large urethane spoiler is given to the upper part of the trunk. In addition, the emblem has been removed and an 845S sticker has been pasted on it.

Suspension that appeals with great power.

What about the actual running?

So all in all a very good session.

Although it is an aero part that is put together with a lens,

The highlight is the feet, Impul's RI wheels 17x8" with 235 RE71 is wearing. Mr. Kobayashi, who was mentioned earlier, said, "We gave the tires the maximum size as long as they didn't adversely affect handling. The aim was, of course, to improve appearance." Anyway, the appearance is certainly impressive, and for people who love dressing up like this, it will be totally acceptable. By the way, the vehicle height has been lowered by about 3 cm due to the active suspension vehicle height sensor.

In terms of mechanics, it's barely touched to the extent that it deserves to be called a dress-up car. At the moment, the CP is only replaced with a more efficient program, and sports mufflers, brake pads, etc. are under development.

The 845S still gives a test drive impression as expected.

Sit in the cockpit, no, in the driver's seat and start the engine. A completely normal 845S except for the 280km/h scale speedometer and Impul pedal kit.

Under the pouring sunlight, opening the sliding roof, setting the automatic air conditioner to 25 degrees, and listening to the background music, driving is simply comfortable. At a pace where you can see the long-running Mini Cooper coming from behind in the rearview mirror, you certainly don't feel any disadvantages with wide tires. As I drive around this area, where there are golf courses everywhere, the concept of this car and the image of its owner cross my mind.

From Gotemba, I turned the car toward Kagosaka Pass to go to Lake Yamanaka. When you no longer have to worry about getting lost, start pulling the Mini Cooper away. If you run a winding with 2nd gear hold, You will notice that you are running at a much faster pace than you normally drive in a sports car. However, in terms of fun-to-drive, it is not a car that you will enjoy driving very much.

You can imagine that. However, because this car was equipped with an active suspension, there were some drawbacks due to wide tires during hard cornering, but it followed better than the mechanical suspension, and there was no decisive failure. The main problem here is the steering, as there is very little feel coming from the road through the tires anyway. The orientation of the airbag-equipped steering wheel is arguably the only source of information that will tell you the turn.

Another thing that bothered me was that the change in the engine control CPU caused the shift point of the automatic transmission to shift. For example, the kickdown only worked at unusually high revs, so it was very frustrating and difficult to drive on winding roads. However, I don't think there is any point in further acceleration performance with normal brakes.

Conclusion. 845S is orthodox

It's a dress-up car.

From this test drive impression, you can see that the concept of this car does not emphasize driving performance. As I mentioned at the beginning, in that sense, I think this Impul 845S is an orthodox dress-up car. This Infiniti is lined up with even a gold key as an option. I'm sure this 845S dress-up kit will be well received.

Cleaner and Greener: Understanding Mini Cooper Emission Tests and Compliance

Vehicles, ubiquitous in our modern world, are undeniably one of the primary contributors to air pollution. The escalating use of vehicles globally has sparked concerns regarding the emissions they produce. To mitigate the environmental impact and strike a balance between vehicle usage and environmental health, measures have been instituted to regulate vehicle emissions, and at the forefront of these efforts lie emission tests.

The Significance of Emission Tests:

In numerous countries, stringent measures have been adopted to curb environmental pollution. In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) conducts comprehensive emission tests on various vehicles. These tests serve a critical purpose in assessing the volume of gas emitted and the level of harm posed by these emissions. But why do vehicles release these emissions in the first place?

Emission Origins and Environmental Impact:

Every motor vehicle utilizing fuel emits emissions as a result of the combustion process. The energy stored in fuel is chemically converted into mechanical energy, propelling the vehicle's various drive train components to rotate the wheels. However, alongside this mechanical energy, the combustion also produces byproducts—gases, fumes, unburned carbon, and other compounds. These emissions often contain toxic compounds such as carbon monoxide, sulfides, and hydrocarbons, posing severe health risks to humans and other living organisms. To counter these risks, vehicles are equipped with emission control systems designed to convert harmful gases into benign ones.

The Role of Emission Control Systems:

The exhaust system serves as a pivotal component in directing and managing emissions. After the combustion process within the engine, the resultant gases are expelled through exhaust valves to the exhaust manifold. Subsequently, these gases travel through the catalytic converter, where toxic compounds undergo conversion into harmless gases. The muffler then mitigates the loud noises from the engine's exhaust, ensuring a quieter operation. Seals and valves along the exhaust system prevent gas leakage, as catalytic converters become less effective in the presence of leaks. Ultimately, harmful gases are released safely outside the vehicle.

Combatting Incomplete Combustion:

Incomplete combustion of fuel leads to heightened emissions due to unburned fuel vapors. Mechanisms such as the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve redirect a portion of exhaust gases back into the engine to facilitate the combustion of unburned fuel. Oxygen sensors play a critical role by monitoring oxygen levels in the gases and signaling the engine to adjust the fuel-to-air ratio. An optimal air-fuel ratio ensures efficient combustion, minimizing harmful emissions.

The Importance of Emission Testing:

Any faults in the aforementioned exhaust or engine components can lead to increased emissions. Vehicles emitting excessive pollutants fail emission tests, indicating a lack of compliance with environmental standards. A failed test results in the vehicle being uncertified and signals the need for immediate repairs. Emission tests, typically conducted every 120,000 - 150,000 miles, ascertain the functionality of a vehicle's emission control systems.

Emission Tests and Compliance:

Emission tests serve as a checkpoint, ensuring vehicles comply with the exhaust emission standards set by the EPA. These tests are typically conducted at authorized emission test stations.

Conclusion and Recommendations:

Timely emission testing is crucial to avert potential problems associated with a vehicle's emissions. Address any identified issues promptly, seeking assistance from certified service centers like Mini Cooper Service if your vehicle fails an emission test.

In summary, emission tests serve as a crucial checkpoint to maintain vehicle compliance with environmental standards. By adhering to emission control systems and conducting regular tests, we contribute to safeguarding our environment while enjoying the convenience of vehicle usage.

Another Taste: 2019 Hyundai Veloster N

WILLOWS, California — The day went by like a movie montage: Laps at Thunderhill Raceway Park, drivers scaring the sewage out of themselves on the fast off-camber turns. Then we’re on the autocross, chasing down a pro driver’s low-39-second run, knowing the car will do the first S-bend flat-out—but not sure we can. And now here is a lonely back road; jump off the gas to hear the popping of the exhaust, then hammer through bumpy corners to see if see if anything can flap this suspension.

We long ago thought we were done with the following thought, but here it is yet again: “This is a Hyundai?!”

Specifically, it is the 2019 Veloster N, a car that should have hot-hatch pros Volkswagen, Honda, and Mini scared: after 30 years, Hyundai has finally cracked the code. It’s an old-school hot hatch taking advantage of new-school technology, and a car that reminds us that maybe the future isn’t entirely electric.

According to Hyundai, it’s only the beginning.

Savvy enthusiasts know the story behind the Veloster N: After decades of struggling with its driving dynamics, Hyundai-Kia hired BMW M alumni Albert Biermann, Thomas Shemera, and Fayez Rahman to work on it for the company. We’ve already seen the fruits of their labor via the Kia Stinger and Genesis G70, but the Veloster N and its European-market sibling, the Golf-shaped i30 N, are their first front-drive hot-hatch efforts. (For those who want to see the i30 N come stateside, rest assured that we’re getting the better end of the deal—the Veloster is lower and lighter, and should prove quicker.)

In the pre-Biermann days, Hyundai might have merely dropped in a Sonata engine and grafted on Optima brakes to create a quicker Veloster, but as you can imagine, under Biermann’s direction, things went way further. The engineers added additional welding and reinforcement to the body shell to increase torsional rigidity, stiffened the engine mounts to prevent powertrain movement from shifting the car’s weight balance, and massaged the aerodynamics to increase rear downforce as speed builds. They increased the front suspension’s roll center, and decreased it at the rear. They replaced the Veloster’s column-mounted power-steering motor with a rack-mounted unit, quickening the ratio in the effort, and they beefed up the six-speed manual transmission (a twin-clutch automatic is still a couple of years away). And they programmed a rev-matching mode that sets the RPMs when you downshift, eliminating the need to heel-and-toe.

And, of course, they doctored the electronics. Along with the standard Normal, Eco, and Sport modes, there’s an “N” mode, which sets every parameter (suspension, steering, throttle response, rev matching, sound enhancement, relaxed stability control) to the max, along with a custom “N” mode that lets you set each parameter to your liking.

Hyundai also developed two flavors of the car: The basic Veloster N develops 250 horsepower and rides on 18-inch wheels shod with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires; the Performance Package increases horsepower to 275 (torque remains unchanged at 260 lb-ft, though the peak rev range stretches 700 rpm higher) and adds bigger brakes, 19-inch wheels, specially-developed Pirelli P-Zero tires, an electronic limited-slip differential, and a valve in the muffler that opens up the exhaust in N-mode. The results, as with any good performance car, are way better than the sum of the parts.

We began the morning with a Performance Package car on the roads just outside Thunderhill. You could happily spend the entire day enjoying the fusillade of pops from the exhaust during gearshifts, but duty called and a clear patch of road beckoned, so the Veloster N pushed onward: 100 MPH in fourth gear and no drama from the suspension.

The ride is hard as a rock when the suspension is in its stiffest setting, causing the car to bounce like a 10-year-old Honda Civic with chopped springs. Softer settings provide a ride that is surprisingly comfortable; in fact, perhaps few cars offer so much differentiation. Go ahead and setup N Custom with full noise activated, rev matching on, soft suspension, and lighter steering—with the big “N” button featured prominently on the steering wheel, right by the driver’s right thumb, it was easy to flick between the two, turning the super-stiff ride on and off at will.

We found several bumpy corners and hit them as fast as seemed prudent, but nothing threw the Veloster off its line. That said, it would be nice if the quick-ratio steering wasn’t quite so quick, at least right off-center; the car isn’t exactly twitchy in a straight line, but it’s close.

Another cool discovery: Selecting Normal mode causes the car to go soft and silent, to the point you may as well be driving a base-model Veloster. This ability to morph between weekend racer and weekday commuter is arguably one of the Veloster N’s best features, as anyone who drives a Mini JCW daily might agree—fun is fun, but it isn’t fun all of the time.

Back at Thunderhill on the autocross, Hyundai’s engineers recommended N Custom mode with the softer suspension setting. The tight turns proved the mettle of the electronic limited-slip diff: the Veloster’s unit kept the inside-front tire in check without any noticeable power loss. However, any hopes for a little power-off oversteer (a rarity in front-drivers, but the Focus ST does it), evaporated quickly.

Finally, it was time for the track. For those unfamiliar, Thunderhill Raceway is a horror show of blind crests, way-off-camber turns, and big, fast sweepers. Here, the Veloster N showed its flexibility and raw talent. Power and chassis felt well matched, and the stiff suspension kept the chassis strapped down tight—very nice for those panicky moments when the pavement went in an unexpected direction. The rev-matching feature was a real boon, making for the easiest downshifts this side of a paddle. And the grip—oh, man, the grip! Thunderhill has several turns that can be taken at generous speeds, and the Pirelli rubber kept the Veloster glued to the track. The cars designated for on-circuit driving were fitted with track-ready brake pads, available from Hyundai dealers, and though the pedal softened a bit, braking action remained consistent and strong.

By the end of the day, the inkling present from the very beginning had proven to be legitimate: The Veloster N is the real deal, a serious hot hatch that can run with the best.

Let’s compare it to the heavy hitters: VW GTI and Golf R, Honda Civic Si and Type R, Mini Cooper S and JCW, Ford Focus ST and RS. Styling-wise, some will certainly consider the Hyundai the winner: Its sports-car stance, tasteful red trim, and reasonably restrained rear wing make the Honda and Ford look childish and the VWs look too subtle. (The Minis are a toss-up, since a billion customization options let the owner pick how it looks.) Power-wise, the Hyundai comes up right in the middle between the 200 and 300 hp cars, though its engine loses a few points to the rev-happy Hondas. Biermann reminded us the Veloster N’s engine is “nothing special,” Hyundai’s work-a-day 2.0T with the boost turned up, and it shows. But the Performance Package wins those points back for its delicious exhaust note.

In terms of handling, it’s likely a toss-up for a lot of drivers. It would be nice if the Veloster was as easy to rotate as the Focus ST, and the front-drive Civic Type R continuously amazes us with its ability to run with the all-wheel-drive cars—the best being the Golf R, which seems to give its driver a day pass from the laws of physics. The Veloster N doesn’t quite generate that level of magic, but its electronic limited-slip diff works well and it shakes off the abuse of the track like a pro. It’s not out of its depth in such esteemed company, that’s for sure.

Hyundai hadn’t announced pricing at the time of our drive, but it said the Veloster N will come in at less than $28,000, including destination fee, while Performance Package cars will list for less than $30k. Consider that the 220-hp 2018 VW GTI starts at $27,310, and the 2018 Civic Type R lists for $35,595, and the Veloster N is one hell of a performance bargain. Perhaps it isn’t so hard to believe this is a Hyundai, after all.

The Korean manufacturer has promised even more, with additional full-on N models coming, along with an N-Line trim package for most of its cars, and racy N accessories for all. A promising future, but if the whole shebang stopped with the Veloster N, we’d be perfectly happy. This is an honest performance hatchback from the last place we expected, and it’s bound to change enthusiasts’ opinion of the brand.

Someone might take her. and when he washes his car when Im outside he purposley takes off his shirt as if Im not watching him.""

I can't find any figures but I assume it's pricey :-( Any help or advice on this would be greatly appreciated (I'm in the UK, by the way).. Cheers!""

I have checked multiple compare sites, insurance sites, phoned them, asked my friends who they had their insurance under blah blah blah. The lowest quote I have had was 4000!! This extortionate amount is even with my pass plus certificate, saying I keep the car in a garage and having a low annual mileage (up to 6000). I really need some help here! If the car isn't insured for any time longer, and is just sitting in the garage I think im going to murder someone! Any good companies out there???????? Thanks a lot :)""

Cheap insurance for someone who had foreign licence?

Do you know any insurance company which will insure a small van (suzuki carry), and will recognise my previous 8 years driving experience in Australia? I have only just got around to getting a British licence (as the road rules and driving standards are similar, I can just trade my Australian one in, no test), and been living in the UK just over a year. Have tried a few insurance quote websites, and they all seem to be quoting me the same as a brand new driver who has just passed their test - i.e. extremely expensive! thanks for any tips!""

How can life insurance be profitable for insurance companies?

How can personal life insurance actually make a profit for an insurer, when it is universal that any insured person will eventually die?

Strange sound from under Mini Cooper S after an hour of fast-ride?

Hi guys! I noticed strange sound when I got home after approx hour long trip on a speed road (approx 110-120 km/h all the way).

It is the first time I hear such a sound and it wonder if anyone can tell what it could be?

Here is the recording - https://clyp.it/fldx1ibd

Well before we go anymore, let’s take a look at the fiscal consequences of incorporating a tiny Gotham City to the Beemer. The base car, a BMW 330i Touring, could be experienced for $73,300. That purchases you a great station wagon with a sought-after-following German badge. Along with a seven-rate automatic transmission with a number of-cylinder turbo-petrol engine (185kW/350Nm) which enables a great sound and will go pretty quick.

More items you can read about in one more 330i review. BMW 330i Touring, is also received a modicum of journey ease and comfort that’s amazing thinking of the large M Performance 20-inch alloy wheels ($7250) and 35 information tires this 330i trips on. The chairs are stock standard, but the cabin is tastefully finished and possesses a premium seems, showcasing the M Performance Steering Wheel II ($1199) completed in Alcantara, and the co2 clip is a highlight. Whenever you place your numbers upon it, you feel as if you are in a race car. A Porsche 911 GT2 RS to get accurate!

Sailing about for a full week in this particular darker, brooding Beemer got me to feel appropriate, not just for the mind-turning seems but also the increased interior materials and the more decibels from the exhaust system. If only the BMW 330i Touring, was nevertheless a half a dozen-tube model like prior years but the noise it makes, with the M Performance muffler ($2099), is quite delicious. It blats between equipment, and it has a right tone as the revs climb. Despite the extra volume level, the car is relatively quiet inside of the cabin. Codenamed B46, the 2.0-litre turbo-petroleum engine is a rev-pleased device, keenly spinning to 6500rpm, but the part of me that is aware the power plant is shared with the Mini Cooper S pines following a six-cooking pot screamer. The advantage of getting a substantial-productivity 185kW 4-tube engine is that it is quite successful. A week using this streets prowler discovered stats of close to 7.6L/100km. That is a fantastic result for a thing that was frequently provoked. The 8-pace auto transmission it is associated with is not a single of the latest cog-swappers out of Europe, but it is nevertheless 1 of the greatest. Smooth and quiet at piddling rates of speed, quickness and decisive at great rates of speed, it’s an excellent all-rounder.

2018 BMW 330i Touring Price And Release Date

Another BMW 330i Touring, pieces add $18,790 to the purchase price, but that features the work and appropriate costs, rearing the amount to $92,090, but doesn’t include on-highway charges. Logically, you aren’t about to go out of the dealer using this car for under 100 big.

Another Taste: 2019 Hyundai Veloster N

WILLOWS, California — The day went by like a movie montage: Laps at Thunderhill Raceway Park, drivers scaring the sewage out of themselves on the fast off-camber turns. Then we’re on the autocross, chasing down a pro driver’s low-39-second run, knowing the car will do the first S-bend flat-out—but not sure we can. And now here is a lonely back road; jump off the gas to hear the popping of the exhaust, then hammer through bumpy corners to see if see if anything can flap this suspension.

We long ago thought we were done with the following thought, but here it is yet again: “This is a Hyundai?!”

Specifically, it is the 2019 Veloster N, a car that should have hot-hatch pros Volkswagen, Honda, and Mini scared: after 30 years, Hyundai has finally cracked the code. It’s an old-school hot hatch taking advantage of new-school technology, and a car that reminds us that maybe the future isn’t entirely electric.

According to Hyundai, it’s only the beginning.

Savvy enthusiasts know the story behind the Veloster N: After decades of struggling with its driving dynamics, Hyundai-Kia hired BMW M alumni Albert Biermann, Thomas Shemera, and Fayez Rahman to work on it for the company. We’ve already seen the fruits of their labor via the Kia Stinger and Genesis G70, but the Veloster N and its European-market sibling, the Golf-shaped i30 N, are their first front-drive hot-hatch efforts. (For those who want to see the i30 N come stateside, rest assured that we’re getting the better end of the deal—the Veloster is lower and lighter, and should prove quicker.)

In the pre-Biermann days, Hyundai might have merely dropped in a Sonata engine and grafted on Optima brakes to create a quicker Veloster, but as you can imagine, under Biermann’s direction, things went way further. The engineers added additional welding and reinforcement to the body shell to increase torsional rigidity, stiffened the engine mounts to prevent powertrain movement from shifting the car’s weight balance, and massaged the aerodynamics to increase rear downforce as speed builds. They increased the front suspension’s roll center, and decreased it at the rear. They replaced the Veloster’s column-mounted power-steering motor with a rack-mounted unit, quickening the ratio in the effort, and they beefed up the six-speed manual transmission (a twin-clutch automatic is still a couple of years away). And they programmed a rev-matching mode that sets the RPMs when you downshift, eliminating the need to heel-and-toe.

And, of course, they doctored the electronics. Along with the standard Normal, Eco, and Sport modes, there’s an “N” mode, which sets every parameter (suspension, steering, throttle response, rev matching, sound enhancement, relaxed stability control) to the max, along with a custom “N” mode that lets you set each parameter to your liking.

Hyundai also developed two flavors of the car: The basic Veloster N develops 250 horsepower and rides on 18-inch wheels shod with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires; the Performance Package increases horsepower to 275 (torque remains unchanged at 260 lb-ft, though the peak rev range stretches 700 rpm higher) and adds bigger brakes, 19-inch wheels, specially-developed Pirelli P-Zero tires, an electronic limited-slip differential, and a valve in the muffler that opens up the exhaust in N-mode. The results, as with any good performance car, are way better than the sum of the parts.

We began the morning with a Performance Package car on the roads just outside Thunderhill. You could happily spend the entire day enjoying the fusillade of pops from the exhaust during gearshifts, but duty called and a clear patch of road beckoned, so the Veloster N pushed onward: 100 MPH in fourth gear and no drama from the suspension.

The ride is hard as a rock when the suspension is in its stiffest setting, causing the car to bounce like a 10-year-old Honda Civic with chopped springs. Softer settings provide a ride that is surprisingly comfortable; in fact, perhaps few cars offer so much differentiation. Go ahead and setup N Custom with full noise activated, rev matching on, soft suspension, and lighter steering—with the big “N” button featured prominently on the steering wheel, right by the driver’s right thumb, it was easy to flick between the two, turning the super-stiff ride on and off at will.

We found several bumpy corners and hit them as fast as seemed prudent, but nothing threw the Veloster off its line. That said, it would be nice if the quick-ratio steering wasn’t quite so quick, at least right off-center; the car isn’t exactly twitchy in a straight line, but it’s close.

Another cool discovery: Selecting Normal mode causes the car to go soft and silent, to the point you may as well be driving a base-model Veloster. This ability to morph between weekend racer and weekday commuter is arguably one of the Veloster N’s best features, as anyone who drives a Mini JCW daily might agree—fun is fun, but it isn’t fun all of the time.

Back at Thunderhill on the autocross, Hyundai’s engineers recommended N Custom mode with the softer suspension setting. The tight turns proved the mettle of the electronic limited-slip diff: the Veloster’s unit kept the inside-front tire in check without any noticeable power loss. However, any hopes for a little power-off oversteer (a rarity in front-drivers, but the Focus ST does it), evaporated quickly.

Finally, it was time for the track. For those unfamiliar, Thunderhill Raceway is a horror show of blind crests, way-off-camber turns, and big, fast sweepers. Here, the Veloster N showed its flexibility and raw talent. Power and chassis felt well matched, and the stiff suspension kept the chassis strapped down tight—very nice for those panicky moments when the pavement went in an unexpected direction. The rev-matching feature was a real boon, making for the easiest downshifts this side of a paddle. And the grip—oh, man, the grip! Thunderhill has several turns that can be taken at generous speeds, and the Pirelli rubber kept the Veloster glued to the track. The cars designated for on-circuit driving were fitted with track-ready brake pads, available from Hyundai dealers, and though the pedal softened a bit, braking action remained consistent and strong.

By the end of the day, the inkling present from the very beginning had proven to be legitimate: The Veloster N is the real deal, a serious hot hatch that can run with the best.

Let’s compare it to the heavy hitters: VW GTI and Golf R, Honda Civic Si and Type R, Mini Cooper S and JCW, Ford Focus ST and RS. Styling-wise, some will certainly consider the Hyundai the winner: Its sports-car stance, tasteful red trim, and reasonably restrained rear wing make the Honda and Ford look childish and the VWs look too subtle. (The Minis are a toss-up, since a billion customization options let the owner pick how it looks.) Power-wise, the Hyundai comes up right in the middle between the 200 and 300 hp cars, though its engine loses a few points to the rev-happy Hondas. Biermann reminded us the Veloster N’s engine is “nothing special,” Hyundai’s work-a-day 2.0T with the boost turned up, and it shows. But the Performance Package wins those points back for its delicious exhaust note.

In terms of handling, it’s likely a toss-up for a lot of drivers. It would be nice if the Veloster was as easy to rotate as the Focus ST, and the front-drive Civic Type R continuously amazes us with its ability to run with the all-wheel-drive cars—the best being the Golf R, which seems to give its driver a day pass from the laws of physics. The Veloster N doesn’t quite generate that level of magic, but its electronic limited-slip diff works well and it shakes off the abuse of the track like a pro. It’s not out of its depth in such esteemed company, that’s for sure.

Hyundai hadn’t announced pricing at the time of our drive, but it said the Veloster N will come in at less than $28,000, including destination fee, while Performance Package cars will list for less than $30k. Consider that the 220-hp 2018 VW GTI starts at $27,310, and the 2018 Civic Type R lists for $35,595, and the Veloster N is one hell of a performance bargain. Perhaps it isn’t so hard to believe this is a Hyundai, after all.

The Korean manufacturer has promised even more, with additional full-on N models coming, along with an N-Line trim package for most of its cars, and racy N accessories for all. A promising future, but if the whole shebang stopped with the Veloster N, we’d be perfectly happy. This is an honest performance hatchback from the last place we expected, and it’s bound to change enthusiasts’ opinion of the brand.
