Hyundai to Debut European Spec Veloster Turbo at the Geneva Auto Salon, gets 183hp


After its world premiere at the Detroit Motor Show in January, the new Hyundai Veloster Turbo is heading to Switzerland and the 82nd Geneva International Auto Salon for its European debut.

Like the North American (N.A.) model, the European specification Veloster Turbo is equipped with the Hyundai Group's new 1.6-liter T-GDI four-cylinder engine featuring a high-compression, twin-scroll turbocharger and direct-injection technology.
