Insight summary

Hyundai Veloster is a very rare model in this snapshot, with 2,216 represented vehicles and 0.01% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 72.1% from 17,254 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 46. The current pool shows an average of 81,640 miles and an average age of 12.7 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 81,703 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, followed by diesel, and the most frequent defect themes are parking brake, track rod ends and coil springs. The practical read is that the Hyundai Veloster looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
