The pictured modified version
of the second-generation Hyundai Veloster will be introduced to the big screen
later this year, as part of a global marketing initiative. According to the
Korean brand, the 2019 Veloster in hot rod attire will be featured in "a
hot pursuit" scene of Marvel's 'Ant-Man and the Wasp, which highlights its
"capabilities in serving as the ultimate escape vehicle", along with its
"speed and handling".
Finished in purple and adorned with yellow and
orange flames, the tuned Veloster that would feel right at home at SEMA has a
few other mods that make it instantly noticeable, such as the hood scoop, side
exhaust pipes, large rear wing, and chunky tires.
The sequel of the 2015 'Ant-Man' movie is scheduled
to premiere on July 6 at cinemas across the US, and it will mark the Hollywood
debut of other Hyundai vehicles, whose names haven’t been released yet. Prior
to its movie debut, Hyundai will start producing the new generation Veloster in
March, in their homeland, with the first cars expected to arrive on our shores
in the second quarter of the year.
Moreover, the performance-oriented N version
that adds a host of visual and technical upgrades, including a 275 hp 2.0-liter
four-banger, will be put together from September, and the first units will be
shipped to the US before the end of 2018.
