Yeah that's what I am assuming as well, I also folded my passenger side mirror in this weekend.

Haha yeah it's definitely an awesome feature to have in an automatic.

Yeah I am still not 100% convinced that the Veloster has DFCO because my gal/hr is worse coasting in gear vs neutral. The instant MPG is also not nearly as high vs in neutral. I have read how to test if it does but I am not keen on cutting the engine while driving.
