Hyundai Veloster N vs Honda Civic Type R

Despite these similarities, you’ll notice that these models are different in size:

Although the Honda’s measurements make it far longer and taller than the Hyundai, this is an advantage for the Veloster N. As sport-tuned models, you want a vehicle that can make the sharpest turns with ease or slip through the air effortlessly. The Hyundai’s shorter wheelbase and overall size can help you achieve this easily.

Speaking of slipping through the air with ease, the Veloster N’s shorter height allows it to experience less resistance and drag while driving compared to the Civic Type R.

Whatever you prefer to enjoy, the Hyundai and the Honda make it easy to do so with their shared smartphone integration features:

• Apple CarPlay®
• Android Auto™
• Bluetooth®

However, if you want to make viewing your infotainment easier on the roadways, the Hyundai’s 8-inch touchscreen display can do the trick. Unfortunately, the Honda’s base trim only features a 7-inch display.

Have you ever continued driving longer than needed because your favorite song was playing on the radio? Well, the Hyundai and the Honda can help make up those miles with a matching EPA-estimated 22 city/28 highway MPG rating¹.

However, the Veloster N sports a 13.2-gallon fuel tank, whereas the Civic Type R is equipped with a 12.4-gallon fuel tank. So, if you want to stay on the road listening to your beloved songs for longer, the Hyundai can accommodate with its capacity to hold more fuel.

On board either vehicle, you’ll find similar driver-assistance features, such as:

• Lane Keeping Assist
• Lane Following Assist
• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
• Brake Assist

Despite these similarities, the Hyundai takes the winner’s cup in the safety department. These additional features come standard in the Veloster N:

• Driver Attention Warning
• Blind-Spot Collision Warning
• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning

Unfortunately, you won’t find comparable systems in the Honda Civic Type R.
