Expert Answers about Hyundai Veloster


  • Largest Cargo Carrier Recommendation for 2015 Hyundai Veloster
  • For your 2015 Hyundai Veloster the Curt Hitch part # C11254 is a confirmed fit and would work well for carrying a cargo carrier. You will need to use the stabilizer strap part # 18050 with this hitch when the carrier is installed as Curt requires the use of a stabilizer strap with this hitch when carrying a non-supported load. The biggest carrier we have that fits a Class I hitch like this is the Reese part # 63155 which measures 20 inches by 47 inches. This carrier has a rise shank of...

  • Hitch Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2012 Hyundai Veloster
  • The Swagman XTC2, part # S64670 is one of the most popular racks because it's so easy to use, and because the rack has an angled shank that would raise the bike rack up by three inches providing additional ground clearance. Because of that, this is the rack I'd recommend for you. The rack includes an anti-rattle hitch bolt, but a combination anti-rattle hitch lock/cable lock is available separately as part # S64031. This rack can accommodate bikes with wheelbases that are up to 66 inches...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and Ball Mount for 2016 Hyundai Veloster
  • Starting with the trailer hitch, the Curt Class I Round Tube Receiver Hitch # C11254 that you referenced is confirmed to fit your 2016 Hyundai Veloster and will work well. This Class I hitch will provide you with a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening and features a towing capacity of 1,000 pounds. I also recommend verifying the vehicle's capacity by checking your copy of the owner's manual. You will always need to follow whichever limit is lower, the vehicle's or the hitch's. One thing of note...

  • 2016 Hyundai Veloster Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation
  • The only other solution we have to carry a bike at the rear of your 2016 Hyundai Veloster is with a hitch like the Curt part # C11254 and a hitch mounted bike rack. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

  • Tow Bar Wiring Recommendation for 2016 Hyundai Veloster
  • Since trailer wiring is not reversible to allow it to be used in a flat towing setup you'd have to go with tow bar wiring that does fit your 2016 Hyundai Veloster. For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for 2019 Hyundai Veloster
  • For your 2019 Hyundai Veloster we have the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B that will work perfectly. I really like this particular roof rack system because it uses unqiue vacuum cups that will attach directly to any part of your Veloster's roof, allowing you to easily customize the space between the bars for different size cargo items as well as remove or re-install the rack in a pinch. The thermoplastic cups also won't scratch or dent the surface of your brand new vehicle...

  • How To Carry Surfboards On a 2019 Hyundai Veloster
  • The SeaSucker Board Carrier part # 298-BX1806 is a valid option for any vehicle in which a roof rack is not available for or even cases where roof racks are available. The SeaSucker has the advantage of being easy to remove and install as well as cutting down on cost since there is not an additional rack required.

This Class I hitch features a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening and has a 100 pound tongue weight capacity. I have attached an installation video on your Veloster that you can use for reference.

  • Recommended Tow Bar for Roadmaster Base Plates on 2013 Hyundai Veloster
  • I'd recommend the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain Tow Bar, part # RM-522. The non-binding and self-aligning arms mean that you won't need to make sure the car is perfectly lined up behind the vehicle and the pavement or ground is flat as a pool table. The tow bar has a 6000 lb capacity, which will work perfectly for your Hyundai Veloster and is fully compatible with your existing Roadmaster Base Plates. I've linked you to a product demonstration video featuring the Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain...

  • Roof Rack and Bike Carrier for 2012 Hyundai Veloster with Center Exhaust
  • Since the 2012 Hyundai Veloster has center exhaust I do not recommend using a hitch mounted bike rack. The heat from the exhaust could damage the bike rack and bikes. The best option for carrying bikes on your Veloster is to use a roof rack. The roof rack that fits your vehicle is the Yakima system consisting of: Jetstream bars 50 inch # Y00425 Baseline Towers # Y28TR BaseClip 180 # Y06180 Baseclip 127 # Y06127 You could carry 2 bikes easily. Three bikes would require the center bike...

  • Trailer Hitch and Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2012 Hyundai Veloster
  • For your 2012 Hyundai Veloster there is only a Class I hitch available, part # C11254. 2 inch hitches are generally reserved for larger vehicles like SUVs and trucks. Generally we do not recommend the use of 2 inch adapters on 1-1/4 inch hitches like this one since they cut the already pretty low capacities for the hitch in half. This hitch has a 100 lb tongue weight capacity so when used for a cargo carrier it would only have a 50 lb capacity. And that includes the weight of the carrier. Your...

  • Is a Trailer Hitch and Hitch Mount Bike Rack a Good Idea on 2013 Hyundai Veloster w/Center Exhaust
  • To be perfectly honest a hitch mount bike rack is not the best idea on a 2013 Hyundai Veloster or any vehicle that has center exhaust. The best option if a hitch mount bike rack is what you want is to use one that is made all of metal. Aluminum bike racks, such as Kuat racks, dissipate heat better than steel. Plastic will melt. However repeatedly heating and cooling metal can damage it over time so I would avoid going with a hitch mount bike rack. The better option if you want to carry...

  • Trailer Hitch for 2013 Hyundai Veloster
  • With such a light trailer you'd probably be okay, but be aware that in the owner's manual, Hyundai states that towing a trailer with the 2013 Veloster isn't recommended. If you decide to tow the trailer, you'll need the following: Class I trailer hitch, part # C11254 Trailer wiring harness w/ 4-pole trailer connector, part # C56153 Ball mount, part # C45521 Trailer ball, part # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch ball or # A-82 for a 2 inch ball Hitch pin and clip, part # PC2 To see a hitch install...

  • Complete Towing System for a 2013 Volaster
  • To flat tow your 2013 Hyundai Veloster behind an RV you will first need the Roadmaster # 521633-1 base plate kit and the Roadmaster # RM-522 "Falcon" all-terrain non-binding tow bar. Add to that # RM-645 safety cables and the # RM-152-98146-7 Universal flat tow wiring kit to operate lights on the Veloster. Finally you will need a supplemental braking system.

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack for a 2013 Hyundai Veloster
  • There are several trunk mount bike racks that are listed as a fit for the 2013 Hyundai Veloster. I have included a link to the options for you. The Over-the-Top rack, # HRF2, is a great choice if your Veloster has that spoiler at the top of the rear hatch. It is made with an extra arm that moves the straps up and over the spoiler so as not to put any stress on it so you can carry bikes with the vehicle. At this time, it only comes in a 2-bike model. If you will be carrying any bikes...

  • For your tire size of 215/40R18 the Thule Easy Fit part # TH04115095 are a confirmed fit. You'll have to check the owners manual of your 2013 Hyundai Veloster to determine if there are any tire chain restrictions. Most likely you'll need to go with Class S compatible tire chains like what these are. That means they do not require much clearance to fit and install.

  • Bike Rack Solution for Carrying 2 Bikes with 2012 Hyndai Veloster
  • I can help you carry two bikes with your 2012 Hyundai Veloster hatchback but the trunk racks that fit your vehicle are only single bike racks and are pretty expensive for what you'd get. So instead you'd need a hitch like the # C11254 so that you could carry a bike rack like the Hollywood Racks Destination part # HLY94FRwhich is lighter weight, easy to load, and very stable. The lighter duty hitches like what fit lighter duty vehicles like yours are limited to carrying up to two bikes...
