I'm a big fan of the Veloster N.

  • Hyundai announced that it will unveil a Veloster N Performance concept at SEMA next month.
  • The concept features a variety of bolt-on performance and aesthetic accessories.
  • Hyundai says that there's a good chance that these modifications will become available for sale, though we don't know when.

The Veloster N just became the second-fastest front-wheel-drive car to lap Virginia International Raceway at C/D's annual Lightning Lap test—the fastest being the Honda Civic Type R. Hyundai could be taking a shot at the red-badged Honda with this new Veloster N Performance concept.

The concept, to be on display at the SEMA aftermarket show, features a variety of bolt-on accessories aimed at tapping into the already capable Veloster N's performance potential. These accessories are only in concept form, but Hyundai says, promisingly, that there's a chance that they'll become available to the public.

The orange-accented exterior is modified with a KWA hood, an engine cover, more aggressive fog lamp surrounds, a front splitter, side skirts, an angular carbon-fiber rear spoiler, and a rear diffuser with Capristo cat-back anodized exhaust tips. You can also get 19-inch OZ Racing wheels with N-brand carbon wheel center caps mounted with Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires.

The chassis, suspension, and brakes are also upgraded with a WIF front, center, and rear chassis brace with an aluminum caliper bracket, Daewon Steel anti-roll bars, Extreme Racing coil-over suspension, H&R coil springs, Alcon forged six-piston front brake calipers and four-piston calipers in the rear, and 15.0-inch front rotors and 14.2-inch rotors out back.

The cabin is orange-accented and full of Alcantara. It's found on the gear-knob boot, steering wheel, parking lever, air-vent surround, headliner and pillar liners, armrests, and doors. Other additions include carbon-fiber trim, Sabelt alcantara and carbon sport seats, an aluminum shifter, and a red start/stop button.

We love seeing all of the concepts at SEMA, most of which we hope will become reality. This bonkers Veloster N is definitely in that category. Perhaps we'll eventually be able to lap one around VIR and see how it stacks up against the Civic Type R.
