2012 Hyundai Veloster Debuts in Detroit



What started out as the Veloster strategy style at the 2007 Los Angeles Vehicle Display has come to life as a development style at this week's 2011 Southern United states Global Vehicle Display in Detroit. In contrast to most other development designs that are usually more standard than their conceptual friends, Hyundai's Veloster is actually more radical than the 2007 style study thanks to its asymmetric structure with a single door on the driving area and two standard opportunities on the passenger-side.

2011 Scion tC


Historians William Strauss and Neil Howe are known for their theory that America goes through a repeating cycle of four periods: a High, an Awakening, an Unraveling and a Crisis. Depending on who you believe, we could be in an Unraveling period about to fall headlong into a major crisis, which our two historians call the Fourth Turning. But if we persevere and turn the corner, we’ll find ourselves back in High times once again.


We reckon the Scion brand is in about the same spot. It hasn’t had much positive to report lately, so the redesigned 2011 Scion tC gives the brand something to talk about while it works out how to improve on its initially strong showing in the U.S. Does the new tC portend a return to High times for Scion, or is it leading a parade lap right into the Fourth Turning?
