2. Applicable Car Models

This car radio is specifically designed for Hyundai Veloster models manufactured between 2011 and 2017. Please verify your vehicle's model year before installation.

Important Compatibility Note:

This car radio is intended for basic car radio versions. If your Hyundai Veloster is equipped with a navigation (navi) version or an amplifier from the factory, a CANBUS adapter (B0D12HYTDX) is required for proper sound output and functionality. Without the correct CANBUS adapter, there will be no sound from the stereo. Please consult the manufacturer if you are unsure about your vehicle's configuration.
