HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA ANNOUNCES 2013 VELOSTER PRICING​

New Affordable Turbo Model with Aggressive Design adds more appeal to Innovative Sport Coupe​

COSTA MESA, Calif., June 6, 2012 – Hyundai Motor America has announced pricing for the 2013MY Hyundai Veloster and Veloster Turbo, with a new 1.6-liter, 201 horsepower, direct-injected twin-scroll turbocharged engine, aggressive bodykit and other unique features. Veloster Turbo’s starting price of $21,950 includes the high-output turbo powertrain, unique body kit, front heated leather sport seats, tuned exhaust, sport-tuned steering, unique 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlight accents and taillights, and a variety of turbo model interior design elements.
The 1.6-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine in the Veloster Turbo produces an impressive 201 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 195 lb-ft of torque at 1,750 rpm with regular fuel. Veloster Turbo also delivers a best-in-class power-to-weight ratio and its engine offers best-in-class specific output. Hyundai’s 1.6-liter Gamma turbocharged engine features a twin-scroll turbocharger that, when combined with direct injection, results in near-instantaneous power delivery and minimal turbo lag. Twin-scroll turbochargers have traditionally been used on more expensive high performance engines, but Hyundai has brought this technology into much more affordable models like Veloster. Veloster Turbo is estimated to deliver 26 mpg city and a best-in-class 38 mpg highway for manual transmission models.

From a bigger, bolder hexagonal front grille, sculpted side skirts and new rear bumper with prominent diffuser vents in the lower fascia, Veloster Turbo design differentiates itself with aggressive design cues relative to the base model. Enthusiasts will also notice the Veloster Turbo will be available in a Hyundai-first Matte Gray paint. In addition, a set of 18-inch alloy wheels with chrome inserts completes the Veloster Turbo’s appearance. From the front, Veloster Turbo also reveals headlight LED accents. Hyundai designers have replaced the Veloster’s trapezoidal center exhaust with two large round exhaust tips. This free-flowing exhaust design gives the engine a more robust sound, which will delight enthusiasts.
Inside, leather seats with Turbo-embroidered stitching in the seatbacks deliver a sporty appearance and provide both exceptional support and comfort. A turbo-exclusive electroluminescent gauge cluster offers the driver information in a larger, clearer and more interactive format, with two TFT screens located between the tachometer and the speedometer. Even more, heated front sport seats are also standard on the Turbo version. Veloster Turbo also incorporates race-inspired push-button start and alloy pedals as standard equipment.

See they dont show you in that posted pricing that the dealer invoice is only $20,898 for a base turbo and that includes there hold back funds for the vehicle also which is usually about $1,000-$1,500. The hold back is for if the vehicle is going to sit for awhile on the lot, which we all know it won't. So, there is some room for negotiation. Just make sure you go in prepared. I've already secured mine through my dealer for less than MSRP including the Ulltimate upgrade and trading in my N/A V for a more than fair trade, and it has already been allocated for shipment. All with no hold payment. All you have to do is go in prepared for battle and know more than they think you do and you'll come out on top.

I'm SO bad @ negotiating.... Too nice, I think...

 

[twanked]

the 20,898 is for the manual transmition....the dealer invoice for the auto is 21,838 if i read the slip i got correctly

 

[VORTEX]

You are correct but I'm only ever buying a car like this in a M/T...

 

[twanked]

[VORTEX]

So if I went in to my dealer and asked for an Elite White, M/T, Ultimate Package for $24,000, I wouldn't get laughed at? Because according to Hyundai's website they're asking $25,425 for what I'm looking under the build and price option. It does include the $775 freight charge and $200 color option charge. I mean, they don't know that we know that their MSRP is lower than advertised, or do they? And, why would or should they sell anything under their MSRP?!? Confused...
