It looks better in live photos than studio shots. It's got a lot of visual heft in the profile, but I don't hate it.

Love the front, boring from the side, rear is ok. Interior looks cheap, and it now has a CVT? Ugh. Hopefully there's still a manual option.

I like that it looks clean without a lot of unnecessary creases and dents.  The front looks nice, but the still need to do some work on the grille.  The bottom tooth is a distraction that cheapens it.

I wanted to see the hatch until the Veloster N news came out. That wheel gap is sad.

Not a fan of the inlets/ducting under the turn signals.  Seems a little aggressive and out of place relative to the rest of the design.  Otherwise, not bad.  Not a supermodel, but not ugly.  Inoffensive.

I think it looks great, especially from the rear. Clean and classy. And I appreciate that the top-level wheels (which is what I assume we're seeing?) don't look ridiculous.

Blah.  But at least it's better than the new Jetta.

It's impossible to argue with Raza. He wins. Period. End of discussion.
