We’ve already established that the 2019 Hyundai Veloster R-Spec is pretty much the most fun you can have in a car less than $24,000. At that price (and even at a few grand above, I’d suggest), it’s one of the most enjoyable drives there is, with excellent balance, steering and a real peach of an engine.

Related: Is the 2019 Hyundai Veloster the Most Fun You Can Have for $24,000?

But what if you have $30,000 to spend? At that price, Hyundai is happy to offer you the Veloster N, the higher-performance sibling to the Veloster R-Spec that comes with a bit more of everything — more engine, a more sophisticated suspension and more styling flair. The question is: Does that translate to enough added smiles to offset the price difference?

What the N Adds

The Veloster N has a more aggressive wing and a unique front fascia with venting designed to help cool the front brakes, but its changes are much more than skin-deep. It adds a comprehensive set of performance upgrades over the R-Spec, starting with its engine: Under the hood, the Veloster N gets a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that cranks out 250 horsepower and 260 pounds-feet of torque (versus the R-Spec’s 201 hp and 195 pounds-feet). That horsepower figure jumps up to 275 with the available Performance Package. Like the R-Spec, the N is only offered with a short-throw six-speed manual transmission, but the N’s adds downshift rev-matching.

Underneath the N is an adaptive suspension and an optional electronically controlled limited-slip differential that is also part of the Performance Package. The N also features a more aggressive N driving mode not found on the R-Spec in addition to an N Custom mode that allows the driver to customize the settings for the suspension, steering, engine, rev-matching, differential, stability control and exhaust.

The Veloster N starts at $27,785, but my test vehicle also came with the Performance Package and that adds $2,100 to the price tag, bringing it to $29,885 (all prices include an $885 destination charge). Beyond the upgraded engine power and differential, the Performance Package also adds larger brakes, 19-inch wheels and a variable exhaust system that adds cracks and burbles to the soundtrack.

The N Is Really Good

The N is, much like the R-Spec, an absolute joy to toss around. In normal modes, it comes off as pretty docile; the exhaust is muted and the suspension loosens up nicely to remain comfortable enough in day-to-day driving. But when you click the N button on the steering wheel, the entire car jumps to life. The engine and steering tighten up, the exhaust note loudens and deepens, and the suspension gets very taut.

Power from the engine flows quickly and easily. The Veloster N pulls very hard out of turns, especially for a front-wheel-drive vehicle. The limited-slip differential does a good job up front of allowing the wheels to do double duty, and the rear end of the car gets held in place by the adaptive suspension. The manual transmission, much like the one in the R-Spec, is a joy to operate. It has the right amount of mechanical notchiness so it’s easy to feel where the gates to each gear are, and the throws are short. The rev matching also works quickly and doesn’t get in the way as you rip through the gears.

Hyundai also nailed the steering and balance feel on the N; it feels alive underneath you in a way that other cars that also feature adaptive suspensions do not. Those can feel detached from the road, but the N makes you feel more in concert with the car as it pushes faster and faster.

If I could make one change on the N, it might be the tires. The 19-inch wheels that come as a part of the Performance Package are wrapped in Pirelli P Zero summer tires, but the 18-inch wheels come with Michelin Pilot Super Sports and the R-Spec gets its own set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 summer tires. On the N, the tires chirped constantly and felt to me like a limiting factor; I had no such problems in the R-Spec (I drove both on similar roads in dry, warm conditions).

Is It Worth It?

Taken on its own, the answer is a resounding yes — the Veloster N is a smile-inducing machine. I loved driving it, and it is significantly cheaper than the rest of its hot-hatch competition like the Honda Civic Type R and Volkswagen Golf R. But the question gets complicated when you factor in the R-Spec, in large part because that car punches so far above its price class. I’d argue that the R-Spec is more of a performance bargain at its $24,000 price tag than the Veloster N is at nearly $30,000.

Further complicating matters is that I didn’t note that much difference between how the two vehicles accelerated. The N has a big horsepower advantage and is measurably the faster of the two cars, but it doesn’t translate to a different experience on the street. I found the R-Spec’s engine to be just as responsive and feel nearly as quick. This could be a byproduct of the weight difference between the two: The R-Spec is more svelte at 2,833 to 2,921 pounds compared with the N’s 3,036 to 3,106 pounds.

That’s why I think the R-Spec nudges the N by a nose when it comes to smiles per dollar. The N has a higher performance ceiling, but it’s not one that’s easily touched on the street, and the R-Spec feels like 90 percent of what the N is at 75 percent of the price. Again, though: There is no wrong answer here. Both are exemplary and make it apparent that the road to hot-hatch glory now runs through Hyundai’s garage. At both price points, the Veloster (whether it be the R-Spec or the N) is the one I’d choose among the respective competitors.

  • Perfect balance between safe and fun

    Currently being a teen driver who takes his car to the track, and daily drives it, I can without a doubt say this is the best car I’ve driven. I have the veloster turbo, and have driven many sports cars and hatchbacks but all are either too performance based or too comfort based. The veloster is the sweet middle ground. The safety systems are amazing, with the forward collision warning saving me multiple times, especially with people in austin loving to brake check... this car on the performance side, held its ground against a Porsche 718 on track, and for less than 1/4 the price, id say it’s a pretty good deal! It’s also very friendly on gas, and maintenance is very well priced as well! Love this car and would definitely buy again

  • Best bang for the buck, smiles per gallon!

    Owned many cars over the last 24 years. The Veloster N was my 15th new car purchase over the past year and a half alone. Almost 1 new car a month. Out of those 15 cars I have kept 2... a Genesis 5.0 sedan and this Veloster N. I bought a Dodge SRT 392 Charger about a year ago, but jumped on the hype train of all the car review articles and traded it in on a Kia Stinger GT2...what a mistake. Out of all the cars I've owned it's about my only regret next to getting rid of my 2014 Mustang GT 500. The stinger looked premium, but felt cheap especially for its $52k sticker. A lot of the things I loved about my 392 charger I found again in the Veloster N. Sure the Veloster N is a compact car so it's not as roomy or comfortable as the 392 was, sure it doesnt have a big V8 and 500hp, but it shines for what it is intended to be. The Veloster N does have hard plastics almost everywhere in the interior, but when I'm driving an engaging and exciting car, I'm not reaching everywhere to touch things like the dash or door cards. I'm grabbing the steering wheel and gear shifter, while my feet are playing with the 3 pedals beneath. All these items are perfect, absolutely perfect. The infotainment and the Infiniti sound system are great, as are the steering wheel controls. So what, boo hoo, no soft touch material on the dash or door panels...it doesnt mean it's cheap, it is plastic, but its not cheap quality plastic. Fit and finish are good and the plastics save weight, have a nice layout, and a nice design. You can customize so much to your preference in the way the chassis and performance of the car by going through the infotainment; 3 modes for the e-LSD, 3 modes for the ESC, 3 modes for the steering heaviness, 3 modes for dampening the suspension, 3 modes for the valved exhaust note, and 3 modes for rev matching. It has great brakes with a big initial bite and zero fade, great turn in and on center feel, its flickable, and even though it is a FWD car, it can oversteer if you set the ESC to Sport +, it feels like a rear wheel drive car. The burples, crackles, and pops from the exhuast are excellent and sound like a rally cars exhuast but can be muted with just the touch of a button. Great short throw shifter with positive engagement, clutch feel and take up is perfect. The dash cluster has shift lights like an F1 car as well as oil temp gauge, boost pressure, torque, hp, mpg, ect. The 275hp 2.0 4 cylinder is more than you need with 0-60 in 5.2 seconds. The car has an easy to use programmable launch control if needed. The Pirelli P-0 summer tires are labeled HN for Hyundai N as they are specialty made for this car and provide great traction and lateral grip. The exterior styling is not over the top and looks fantastic. The LED tail lights remind me of a Lamborghini Aventador's pattern, the areo kit has purpose and is functional, and the front chin spoiler provides for an aggressive look. Could things be better, sure, but not for the price point. This car has exceeded my expectations, which is rare. It will serve many duties if needed; fun machine, proven track car stock due to well thought out and laid out engine components like oil cooler, intercooler, clutch, carbon fiber synchros, too much to list you just have to read about it or watch some videos, lastly it's a great daily driver that get good gas mileage. I dont refer to it as miles per gallon as much as smiles per gallon. It really does deliver. If your concerned with plasticky interior bits, grab a Genesis G80, it's a nice luxury vehicle that does everything extremely well. But dont miss out on thos car...grab it...the Veloster N, for the fun and engaging time you will have driving it, when you're behind the wheel you wont be concerned with anything except where you can find some curvy roads. I would like to see a lighter aluminum or carbon fiber hood for this car as the stock hood is very heavy for its size comparatively.

  • Fun comes Standard

    The Hyundai Veloster N Base lives up to every review in every magazine I have read. Even for a 350 pound guy, I find the racing seats comfortable and supportive. 6 speed shifter is responsive. Stereo is amazing. It looks great and is so much fun to drive I can’t hardly stand it

  • Best car I've ever bought

    I love the moon roof, leather wrapped steering wheel, heads up display and the heated seats. Drives great. Hangs curves really well. Has a lot of get up and go!

  • The best all around vehicle in looks & performance

    I love this car. It looks good, drives well and is very affordable. It suits the spirited driver as well as the conservative economist. It is as close to perfection you can get in a vehicle.
