Kona

Like I said I would like to have gotten the blue link and more information on accessories. I don’t know what else to say except I really like this Kona and I hope it as good as it now for as long as I own it

Great car for the price, got a excellent deal on purchase of 2 vehicles. My wife drives the Kona and loves it.

For the price its a great choice for a in town vehicle. My wife drives this vehicle and loves it. She feels it is just perfect for her and her needs. It has all of the features she was looking for and then sum. She really loves how quick the seat warmers come on and the auto lights selection.

Safety car features

I like that my new car has, safety features on my mirrors the back camera and much more. But l don’t like that it waste more gas than the other car, l had before, since l bought this one tho, and don’t offer Matt’s for your new car too.

No regrets

I have had my Kona for several months now and have no complaints about the features or performance. The safety features have helped me out on several occasions and it is the most comfortable car I've ever owned. I cannot say enough good things about it.

Love love love

I recently purchased a 2018 Kona. It is very easy to drive and adjust to all of the extra features. I live the dash screen with Google maps. The heated seats ate cozy on a chilly morning. The keyless start makes it so easy to get in the car and not have to worry about keys anymore. The mirrors in n the sides alert me if a car is next to me. Ladtly, there us a camera that shows if anything is in your way when you're backing up. I love my new car!!

Kona 2018

I loved my Elantra 2002 I was go to buy another Elantra till I saw and test drove the Kona. I'm a short. Woman which the Kona accomidates. I can see over my hood which I like. I also like that it is high off the ground for snow in the winter! I love this car. Because of the great service I've had owe the years at McGrath I purchased the extended warrenty. I even got my daughter to.buy another Hyundai Tuson!

New Kona, great vehicle

My salesman began this great purchase. Mr. was Todd great. The conversation was similar to talking to a close friend. The Kona rides nice, has great gas miles, will over 400 miles per tank of fuel. All the safely features make driving easier and more relaxing. Great Purchase.

Good but not great

The kona is a good crossover but not a great one. It shifts constantly going up hills ever in sport mode. There is no cd player or xm radio and for people with no cell phone coverage and do not have a smartphone you are limited to using the am/fm radio. Would I recommend a kona? No due to the shifting issues. Took vehicle in for service and was told the problem would stop if driven in sport mode. Did not help at all! I live in a very mountainous area and cannot avoid going up hill so this presents a problem for me. Kona drives beautifully on the flats and in the city but not in the mountains.

20018 Kona

Overall, it's good car. Fuel efficient and easy to handle. But backseat (which I don't use) lacks legroom and the trunk is small. I would also like the option of satellite radio. The Elantra a good feature where the center console had a second level. It should be include not only in the Kona but in all the Hyundais.

5 stars for Kona

I’ve owned my Kona for a little over 4 months now and it has been wonderful! The car drives smoothly, is very user friendly, and it has a very sleek design! I also like that it has the space of an SUV without being super big or bulky. I would highly recommend the Kona to anyone looking for a new car!!

LOVE THIS CAR!

I downsized to this adorable compact Kona! I was concerned about comfort and the "get up and go" power, but happy to say, it has both. Very stylish inside with neon accents and the leather seats aren't as bad as my previous experiences with leather seats-they are still cool in the hot summer days! Everything about is is wonderful. After zipping around town and out of town, the ride is comfortable, great gas mileage, fun to drive and my husband keeps taking my car instead of his full size crossover. I can fit a lot in the hatchback area more than you could imagine. I get many compliments on the car from strangers/coworkers and friends. I Love my KONA!

Love Love Love My Kona

First of all this car is really an eye catcher.....stylish and bright green color does stand out in a crowd. I love to drive the car and find it to be quick and easy to zip around town doing errands, etc. It is also easy to drive on the highway, with enough power and acceleration to surpass my needs. Plus, I am getting great mileage!!! 34 -35 mpg in town and up to 40.5mpg highway....gotta love that, and it was an unexpected bonus for me. Also really appreciate all the "bells and whistles".....including all the safety features, navigation, headlights that light sideways when turning, automatic wipers and light dimmers, Blue tooth, phone charger, and the head up display especially - which alerts you to posted speed zones, position of autos present next to or approaching each side of the car, as well as your current speed and lane deviation if in use. The drivers adjustable seat includes nice lumbar support, as well as heat when needed. The heating/cooling systems work quickly and are easily adjusted. Control panel is easy to use. This car comes loaded with this equipment and I found the price to be very good considering all that I got.

Replaced 13 years of driving Honda vehicles

Love the Kona, thinking about upgrading to a performance model if Hyundia comes out with one. If not upgrade to the highest model with AWD. I have a Limited model. Lot more performance than I thought it would have and very fun to drive.

2018 Kona

I love my 2018 Kona. It rides well, it’s great on gas. I have the top-of-the-line with all the bells and whistles. The only complaints I have and they’re not really complaints are: 1. I wish it still had a CD player. 2, The rear windshield wiper only works on auto in reverse. 3. The navigation system map is only of the United States not North America. 4. The European models the seats or ventilated but not in the American version. Otherwise I do enjoy the vehicle immensely.
