Love my Kona!

The Kona is an amazing vehicle. It's sporty and compact. Can't beat how it handles in the winter. I was leery at first because I've always driven cars. But, I'm extremely comfortable. Highly recommend this fun and safe beauty!

Love the car, but....

Would not have leased if I had known the passenger front seat was not adjustable . Should have been told............Won't lease this model again based on the adjustability of the seat and the fact the sales person did not tell me. Also they forgot to put the antenna on when I picked it up.

I LOVE MY KONA

I LOVE MY KONA. I LIKE THE WAY IT DRIVES, ITS COMFORT, ITS LOOKS AND ALL OF THE EXTRAS, THE ONLY THING I WOULD CHANGE WOULD BE THE TRUNK DOOR. I WISH IT HAD AN AUTOMATIC OPEN AND CLOSE. ITS QUITE DIFFICULT FOR ME TO MANAGE BEING A SENIOR.

Love me a Kona!

I am very happy with my Kona. It is not too big it handles great. I love the lane keep assist and heads up display. The four wheel drive is awesome. The 10 year warranty is great! I recommend buying from Centennial Hyundai in Las Vegas.

Love my Kona

I love my new Kona, I’ve had it on the Blue Ridge Parkway twice she handles the curves in the mountains beautifully. I’ve taken her on a 700 mile trip across two states handle the highway like a charm,. I am use to a larger SUV but this small crossover is just perfect for just me .

My Hyundai Kona

I love everything about this car! Stylish snd sporty looking. Easy and so fun to drive. It has all the high tech features. Android Auto works great. Car gets good mileage. Many people have asked me about the car as it was a new model in 2018. I would highly recommend this car to anyone. However, I wish there was a hybrid version. The electric car probably wouldn't serve our needs as we frequently travel to remote locations.

hyundai kona

Good car except for the battery problem I had in the first three months, where it would not start until someone came out to jump start it. One time it was even parked in my garage overnight. . I had the battery checked by an independent dealer and it checked out as having full power.

I love my Kona

I love all the features, sunroof, leather interior, and Apple Play. The ride is very smooth and the size is just perfect for me. I was looking for a small but roomy SUV and this fits the bill. I really depend on the safety features and wonder what I ever did without it. I know it's silly, but I smile every time I get in my car.

Great

This car is my wife's principal vehicle. She had her pick of whatever she wanted and could afford most anything. She wanted an efficient, good handling car with good visibility and good manuverability. This car had all the features she wanted, performed well, has a great warranty, and just happened to not cost a lot.

Owner?

The trunk needs to have an in-car release, as well as being able to open it from the key fob. The control for the lights should light up at night. I can’t tell if I have just my parking lights on. Trunk alarm is insane. My trunk hatch is difficult to close— I usually have to slam it several times—and I was driving on the highway and it popped open when I hit a SMALL bump. I had to listen to that alarm for 10 minutes until I could pull over and correct it. There is a lot of noise in the car when driving. Positive thoughts: great mileage, roomy, cute as hell, easy to drive, comfortable, lots of storage cubbies, backup camera is good(can’t really use though as it makes me dizzy), love the color — mistake changing the blue on the new 2019 Konas—, love the radio except not sure why it lowers when I back up?! WTH?! Overall, I love my car and don’t regret getting a Kona instead of the Nissan Rogue that I had been researching for 6 months.

Overall satisfaction

Great car love the design and color that's what made me buy it. The only down side is just It lacks power. It needs a bigger engine , then it would get a10 reading from me. I might trade it in at the end of the year because of lack of power

Hyundai Kona - Ultimate

My previous Hyundai was a Santa Fe and I wanted a smaller SUV with better gas mileage and I got what I wanted. I like the unique styling and the overall quality of the vehicle. The things I would like to see changed in the future are design features (interior venting, road noise sound deadening). I love the way this car drives and I never get tired of looking at it. Thank you Hyundai for adding it to your vehicle line-up.

Great car, with a few flaws.

Overall, I love my Kona. It is not too big, not too small. Can carry a decent amount of cargo, especially with the seats down. It has the turbo engine and has sufficient acceleration when I need it. The styling is nice as well. The only complaints are that the smart-cruise control isn't activated on my 2018, when it was told to me that they would turn it on via an update. It has the hardware for it to work, but just wasn't ready software wise when it was rolled out. There is no reason at all that it shouldn't be working. Asside from that, the only other complaints are that we purchased the Ultimate trim, and the interior door material seems hard and cheap and scuffs way too easily, and there should be some soft touch material near the top, but isn't. The last thing is that apparently, according to the dealership, we are limited to two keys programmed to the Kona at a time. This is insane. I share the Kona with my wife and another family member, and we are constantly battling over keys for the vehicle as we only have two. This should not be a limitation.

Kona 2018

Great ride, tight. Nice looking vehicle and mechanically sound. I’m getting 30 mpg normally, I love that. I’d recommend this car to anyone, and buy another. Color is rich, love it (red). Comfortable ride with company in the back going out to dinner.
