Hyundai has continued its extensive teaser campaign for its new 2019 Veloster.

Set to make its debut at the 2018 Detroit Auto Show, the 2019 Hyundai Veloster has already been caught on camera by spy photographers completely undisguised. The Korean automaker continues to release new teaser images for the hot hatch, however, revealing that it will still have the unique asymmetrical three-door setup. Even ignoring the spy photos that reveal the Veloster, we can see from these teasers it borrows design elements from the latest i30.

The front end has a wide grille accompanied by stylish and aggressive headlights with LED daytime running lights. The rear end will also see quite the change, with new taillights, a subtle roof spoiler, a dual center-exit exhaust, and a new bumper.

What we haven’t seen yet is the Veloster’s interior, but that changes now that the Korean automaker has released a single teaser sketch of what to expect inside the cabin. With a red and white scheme, there’s a three-spoke steering wheel and some sporty touches, but we’ll get a better look once the car is unveiled in Detroit.

It’s still unclear what will power the 2019 Hyundai Veloster, but a likely candidate is the same 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine found in the current model. It is believed North American will get the Veloster N as its first N performance model, sporting a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine used in the i30 N, where it produces 271 horsepower.

AutoGuide.com will be on site covering the 2018 Detroit Auto Show, so stay tuned. We’ll share more details about the 2019 Hyundai Veloster when it debuts.
