2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo review review: Hyundai boosts the Veloster's ... - CNET

The 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo's biggest gimmick -- aside from the eponymous turbo, which we'll get back to shortly -- is its asymmetrical design. Viewed from the driver's side, the Veloster appears to be a three-door hatchback. The truth is somewhere in between: Hyundai's Veloster is an unconventional four-door hatchback with one door on the driver's side, two doors on the passenger's side, and the lifting hatch out back. Firstly, the second, smaller door on the passenger side allows for easier access to the rear seat without having to tilt the front seat forward. Two doors are shorter than one long door and swing out a shorter distance from the side of the vehicle, so a Veloster driver cramming into a tiny parking space can get closer to a wall or other obstruction on the passenger side without inhibiting... The Veloster's hatchback form factor with fold-flat rear seats also allows city dwellers to cram a lot of cargo room and stuff-carrying capacity into a relatively small parking space, which is a treat for city living. They are joined to the housings of the circular fog lamps by deep creases that echo the hexagonal blacked-out grille that is both larger and more sinister-looking than the non-turbo Veloster's.
