Car Features TWIN-SCROLL TURBOCHARGER AND GDI
TECHNOLOGY: The 1.6-liter
turbocharged GDI four-cylinder engine in the 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo
produces 201 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 195 lb-ft of torque from 1750 - 4500
rpm with regular fuel. The Veloster Turbo is estimated to deliver 27 mpg city
and best-in-class 38 mpg highway for manual transmission models. Hyundai's
1.6-liter Gamma turbocharged engine features a twin-scroll turbocharger that
when combined with the GDI system, results in instantaneous power delivery. The twin-scroll
turbocharger design has several other advantages over traditional,
single-scroll turbocharging systems, including: ·
Improved combustion efficiency ·
Low engine-speed efficiency ·
Kinetic exhaust gas energy is not wasted or
trapped ·
Cooler cylinder temperatures ·
Lower exhaust temperatures ·
Leaner air/fuel ratio ·
Better pressure distribution in the exhaust
ports and more efficient delivery of exhaust gas energy to the turbocharger's
turbine SPORT-TUNED SUSPENSION: Working in
harmony with the aggressive appearance is the finely tuned suspension setup of
the Veloster. Only key components in the steering were upgraded for the Hyundai
Veloster Turbo. Veloster Turbo features a quicker ratio steering rack and a
revised steering calibration to match, which both give drivers precise
cornering, feedback and control. All Veloster Turbo's ride on Kumho Solus KH25
215/40R18 85V tires designed to extract the best performance out of the car
without compromising the ride. All Velosters are
fitted with a McPherson strut front suspension, coil springs, gas shock
absorbers and a 24 mm diameter front stabilizer. The rear suspension is a
light-weight V-torsion beam, a Hyundai-first with an integrated 23 mm
stabilizer bar to allow bracing of the arms for greater stiffness and to
further control body roll. The rear suspension also uses monotube shock
absorbers for ride comfort. NEW INTERIOR FEATURES: Inside, full leather
seats with the word "Turbo" stitched into the seatbacks help deliver
a unique look and provide exceptional support and comfort. An exclusive
Supervision Cluster offers the driver information in a larger, clearer and more
interactive format. This is due to the Supervision Cluster's two TFT screens
located between the tachometer and the speedometer. Heated front seats are also
standard on the Turbo version. The center stack and controls also resemble a
sport bike fuel tank and incorporate a push-button starter and alloy pedals. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSON: The Veloster Turbo is
mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel-mounted
paddle-shifter and and Shiftronic® controls rather than the base Vesloster's
EcoShift DCT. This is due to the increased torque output from the 1.6-liter
Turbocharged-GDI engine. The gear ratio spread on the automatic transmission is
slightly narrower than the DCT (6.0 vs. 6.38). A narrower spread maintains the
engine in the power band when going from one gear to the other. The base
Veloster's EcoShift DCT is tuned for fuel efficiency and not for the
performance feel needed for the Veloster Turbo. WORLD-CLASS WEIGHT EFFICIENCY: World-class weight
efficiency is a program target for all Hyundai models. This strategy delivers
outstanding fuel economy and performance simultaneously. At just 2,800 pounds,
Veloster is 77 pounds lighter than the Honda Civic Si Coupe and 234 pounds
lighter than the Volkswagen GTI. This priority on weight efficiency allows the
Hyundai Veloster Turbo to deliver a great combination of agility, performance,
and fuel efficiency. ADVANCED STANDARD SAFETY TECHNOLOGIES: PART OF
HYUNDAI'S ASSURANCE COMMITMENT: All Velosters have an
exceptional level of standard safety features for the sporty car segment
highlighted by a Vehicle Stability Management (VSM) system, which optimally
manages ESC (Electronic Stability Control) and the Motor-Driven electric Power
Steering (MDPS). VSM works to control
two effects. The first is when a driver accelerates or brakes on a split-mu
surface (slippery on one side, dry pavement on the other) and the vehicle wants
to pull in one direction. VSM detects this condition and sends a signal to the
MDPS to apply steering assist. VSM counters the pull and automatically provides
up to eight Newton meters of counter steering. VSM reacts the same way during
sudden lane changes or fast cornering. All Velosters feature
six airbags—including dual front, front seat-mounted side-impact, and front and
rear side curtain airbags. Velosters also features
a state-of-the-art braking package. The package includes four-wheel disc brakes
and an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) including Brake Assist, which provides
maximum braking force when a panic stop is detected, and Electronic Brake-force
Distribution (EBD), to automatically adjust the braking force to front and rear
axles based on vehicle loading conditions. CONNECTIVITY/TECHNOLOGY: In the digital age,
everyone wants to be connected to their electronics at all times, so Velosters
come standard with a multifunction seven-inch touch-screen display. At engine
start-up, the screen comes to life with a Veloster image and a unique sound.
There are three interface layouts the user can choose from. Pandora internet radio
is integrated into all Velosters. The display screen has a Pandora icon to
stream internet radio from an iPhone or Android. Pandora can also be viewed on
the display screen and songs can be given the familiar Pandora thumbs up or
thumbs down. Gracenote improves how
Veloster drivers access and manage their music, using enhanced voice
recognition commands in concert with your iPod®. Gracenote MediaVOCS®
technology improves the accuracy of the system's voice recognition capabilities
for music search, letting drivers pinpoint artists, album and genre. For
instance, Gracenote MediaVOCS® helps the system understand artist names like
Beyonc'e and AC/DC. Drivers can also use "The Boss" as a voice command
to access tracks from Bruce Springsteen. In addition, the song's album cover
art displays on Veloster's touchscreen. With video games being
an important element of entertainment, Hyundai integrated an RCA cable and an
available 115-volt power outlet in Veloster to support gaming consoles for
ultimate gaming sessions when parked or watch videos on the seven-inch
multimedia touchscreen. Hyundai Veloster Turbo
features a standard 450-watt Dimension Premium Audio system with eight speakers
including an eight-inch subwoofer, external amplifier and iPod®/USB/auxiliary
input jacks. An XM Satellite Radio interface is also integrated into the head
unit and features channel logos and XM Data services, such as XM NavWeather®,
XM Stock Ticker and XM Sports Ticker. A Bluetooth hands-free
phone system with voice recognition, address book download and audio streaming
is standard. Onboard navigation is optional. The system also integrates a
rear-view camera and backup warning sensors. |

Why Toyota's fuel cell play is one big green gamble
Mon, Feb 3 2014Imagine going to the ballet on Saturday evening for an 8 pm performance. The orchestra begins warming up shortly before the show, but it turns out the star performer isn't ready at the appointed time. The orchestra keeps playing, doing its best to keep the audience engaged and, most importantly, in the building. It keeps this up until the star finally shows and is ready to dance ... which turns out to be ten years later. That's a Samuel Beckett play. It's also how many observers, analysts, alt-fuel fans and alt-fuel intenders feel about the arrival of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) – the few of them who are still in the building, that is. Toyota's hydrogen development timeline rivals that of the US space program. In fact, within the halls of Toyota alone, research on FCVs has been going on for nearly 22 years, meaning that one company's development timeline for FCVs rivals that of the US space program – it was 1945 when Werner von Braun's team began re-assembling Germany's World War II V2 rockets and figuring out how to launch them into space and it wasn't until 1969 when a man set landing gear down on that sunlit lunar quarry. The development of the atom bomb only took half as long, and that's if we go all the way back to when Leo Szilard patented the mere idea of it, in 1934. Carmakers didn't give up on hydrogen in spite of the public having given up on carmakers ever making something of it, so there was a good chance that hydrogen criers announcing the mass-market adoption of periodic chart element number two one would eventually be right. Now is that time. And Toyota, not alone in researching FCVs but arguably having done the most to keep FCVs in the news, isn't even going to be first to market. That honor will go to Hyundai, surprising just about everyone at the LA Auto Show with news of a hydrogen fuel cell Tucson going on sale in the spring. The other bit of thunder stolen: while Toyota's talking about trying to get the price of its offering down to something between $50,000 and $100,000, Hyundai is pitching its date with the future at a lease price of $499 per month ($250 more than the lease price of a conventional Tucson), free hydrogen and maintenance, and availability at Enterprise Rent-A-Car if you just want to try it out. We've seen and driven Toyota's offering and we all know its success doesn't depend on cross-shopping, showroom dealing and lease sweeteners.
Car buyers are paying big money for technology they don't use
Wed, Oct 6 2021J.D. Power released the results of its Tech Experience Index study that measures "how much owners like [in-car] technologies and how many problems they experience with them." Among the study's findings, automakers are loading vehicles with more software and digital experiences that owners claim they never learn how to use or decide they don't need. For example, owners report to J.D. Power that gesture controls, like those used by BMW (spinning a finger, for instance, can raise or lower the audio volume), don't improve the overall ownership experience. In fact, gesture controls received the lowest overall satisfaction score in the study for a second consecutive year. In another example, the study found that 61% of owners claim never having used "in-vehicle digital market technology," while 51% of respondents said they didn't need it. Driver/passenger communication technology was another sore point with users, with 52% saying they have never used the technology, and 40% of those saying they have no need for it. (10 Features owners say they want, and 7 they really don't). Conversely, some technologies are well received by owners. For American owners, rear-view cameras and so-called "ground view" cameras were among the top three desired technologies. We assume that "ground view" is a surround-view or 360-degree camera system. The one-pedal driving possible in a number of EV's with adjustable regen braking also scored very high marks and few claimed issues. While it could be argued that owners who don't want to use a specific piece of technology should just avoid using it, the reality is that all of these unused features add cost to the final price of any vehicle. Considering that the average transaction price of a new vehicle hit a record $45,031 in September of 2021, controlling spiraling costs is a big deal. J.D. Power's survey results found that dealerships can play a big role in explaining new technology to buyers. Scores for some technologies like trailer assistance received higher scores from owners who received training from their dealers. Unfortunately, 71% of owners say they were taught how to use tech from outside sources whereas only 30% learned from a dealer. The results of this study are the product of responses from 110,827 owners of current model-year vehicles that J.D. Power surveyed after 90 days of ownership from February through July 2021.
Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
