The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
8.2
8.0

TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2013 Hyundai Veloster dances the line between sporty coupe and sports car with features, fuel economy, impressive handling, and newfound turbo power. The 2013 Volvo C30 still has a stunning design, inside and out, but its performance and practicality can easily be beat.
