2019 Hyundai Veloster N & 2018 Sonata Hybrid Presentation – Video
Under the hood of the 2019 Hyundai Veloster N is the turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder cranking out 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. That power goes to a 6-speed manual transmission that features an automatic rev-matching system for downshifts, and on to the front wheels by way of an electronic limited-slip differential.
The 2018 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid gasoline-electric powertrain is unchanged. The Hybrid’s 193-horsepower-combined electric and gas motor output remains the same. That includes a 2.0-liter gas engine, a 38-kW electric motor mounted in the transmission, and a 1.76-kWh battery pack in the trunk. The PHEV gets a bigger 9.8-kWh battery for up to 27 miles of electric range. With the larger 50-kW motor, the PHEV combined horsepower rating swells to 202.
