What engine is in a Hyundai Veloster?

I need to buy an older car for financial reasons, but I still want one that has a good engine with a decent amount of horsepower. If I buy a Hyundai Veloster from 2014, will it still have a good engine that can go fast?

The 2014
Hyundai Veloster
is fitted with a 1.6-liter I-4 engine. This delivers 201 horsepower and can reach a top speed of 130 MPH, which isn’t very impressive when compared to some of the other vehicles on the market today. Even the modern Hyundai Veloster is faster than the 2014 model, partially due to its larger 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine.
Unfortunately, the 2014 Veloster also has poor reliability ratings. As such, buying a used Veloster that’s almost 10 years old might not be a great investment if you’re hoping for a car that will last you for a long time.
Regardless of whether or not you purchase a Veloster, your new car will need
