IF Hyundai's Veloster Is A Sales Hit Should They Build A Crossover Version A La Countryman?

One relatively controversial car that's been making waves is the all-new Hyundai Veloster. Boasting a sporty hatchback look, it's an interesting take coming from Hyundai.

One target the brand may not have been intentionally aiming for was the MINI Cooper, which it now competes with. And as we were perusing our old galleries from previous Los Angeles Auto Shows, we noticed that Hyundai had a concept that looks strikingly similar to the Veloster; however, there is one MAJOR difference:

It's a crossover.

With that said, we're curious if YOU think it would make sense for the Veloster to compete with the Cooper Countryman on the crossover front IF the Veloster is a sales success.
