Hyundai to reveal new Veloster

If the RE:MIX and Street are anything to go by, we expect it to sport unique wheels, decals and badging.

Hyundai is poised to reveal a new version of its sporty Veloster at the Chicago motor show next week.

Described simply as the "newest addition to the Veloster line-up" for now, the new model is expected to be another limited edition model, building on the 2000-unit Veloster RE:MIX unveiled at SEMA last year.

Such models appear to be part of a global effort to keep the now three-year old Veloster fresh, with Hyundai Australia releasing the similar Veloster Street in 2013.

The Korean brand also revealed the Veloster Turbo Spec-R at the LA show in November, with a stiffened chassis, performance shifter, and minor visual upgrades.

Hyundai is yet to offer any further details on the new model, but if the RE:MIX and Street are anything to go by, we expect it to sport unique wheels, decals and badging, and possibly an exciting new paint colour.

Back when all cars burned fuel and couldn't drive themselves, Mal was curing boredom by scanning every car his parents' VB Commodore drove past. His childhood appreciation for the car world exploded during a three-year stint in the US, and serious questions were asked when he spent a good chunk of his uni career perfecting lap times at Wakefield Park. Mal got his big break scooping the VE II Commodore, before a stint at Overlander magazine and kicking off his online career with The Motor Report in its heyday. These days he's exactly the same height as Michael Schumacher and uses his powers for good at the helm of CarsGuide's editorial team. Mal proudly shuns brand allegiance and counts three young kids, an EH Holden, NA MX-5, KE20 Corolla, W116 Mercedes-Benz and the world's most versatile Toyota Echo among his personal stable. He also craves a Subaru Vortex, so get in touch if you know where to find one.
