Hyundai – Taking Veloster to the Street

Hyundai Motor Company Australia today reveals a head-turning Veloster Street Concept, demonstrating the brand’s philosophy – New Thinking.New Possiblities. – and appealing to a new genre of customers. Created in conjunction with local aftermarket modification company Concord Customs, the Concept makes a bold statement both visually and audibly.

The Concept injects the standard Veloster SR with pure street-cred. The design theme takes the Veloster’s muscular character lines in fearsome factory matt grey paint, and bolsters them with custom exterior finishes including a fluoro orange accent defining the side-skirts, rear diffuser and front spoiler. The illuminated front, rear side and rear splitters make a bold statement, while at the rear end a striking matt black spoiler and turbo-back twin exhausts complete the look.

While the looks of the Veloster Street Concept are impressive, it goes far beyond exterior cosmetics, with significant under-bonnet and interior modifications.
