Hyundai adds Dual Clutch Transmission to the Veloster

2012 Hyundai Veloster


The Hyundai Veloster was launched in March 10, 2011, as well as the debut of Hyundai's new sub-brand, Premium Youth Lab, to cater the interests of young Korean adults. It even landed as the main car of Lee Min Ho in the SBS action drama, City Hunter as well. One major drawback is that production of the 2+1 door hatchback coupe is limited up to 18,000 units to maintain its premium exclusivity.

Guess what, Hyundai just added another variant for the Veloster, first of Hyundai's new Premium Youth Lab sub-brand. This time, the South Korean automaker added a Dual Clutch Transmission under the banner "Hyundai Veloster DCT Pack" for those who think that the automatic transmission variants not good enough.

Scoop:

The first Hyundai ever to be fitted with a 6-speed Double Clutch Transmission engineered from the company itself was actually the Veloster after all! Now, you can enjoy the same great Veloster goodness now with a 6-speed Dual Clutch Transmission! Needless to say that those Paddle Shifters attached on the Veloster's steering wheel looks perfect!

But still, Hyundai Asia Resources would not bring the Veloster yet because our gas is still not as refined as the developing countries. We are salivated over to it. orz
