It is a car for people who don't care at all about driving dynamics (handling, suspension, transmission, etc). It is a hipster type car with regards to styling and features. It certainly will attact buyers.
I have owned Hyundai's I get what they are about, but the car is anything but a sports car (which the name Veloster implies).
