impressive

The Kona is a well built highly functional sub compact SUV. Comfortable, fun to drive and economical. It's a great value! The base engine is adequate, I have the AWD), and only find it a little under powered when using the air conditioner. Love the all wheel drive and great handling. No hesitation in recommending this vehicle.

outstanding

I enjoy driving this car. I leased it in 2018 and it has served me well. It has a smooth ride and it is pretty fuel efficient. so far leasing has been a good option, this was my first time leasing a vehicle.

Love this Little Car!

I did not choose to get a new car. My leased Sonata was totaled in an accident. I have not driven many SUVs and prefer coupes. Nevertheless, finances limited my purchase and the sales department worked hard to get me a fair price. I am totally in love with this car...I have been asked to trade, but I won't think of it! It gets great mileage and excellent performance. And it turns on a dime!!!

overall like the vehicle

Great car. Its a lot of fun to drive. great performance for a little engine, but the transmission need work. I have driven other dual clutch cars and they are a lot smoother than one is. It has a tendency to buck like a Branco especially at low speeds. Excellent gas mileage.

The best small SUV ever!

This car has been such a pleasant surprise from day one. I walked into the dealership to test drive a Santa Fe that I had extensively researched. But my head was turned by the lovely lime green Kona sitting in the showroom floor. Reason flew right out the window and I purchased a brand new model in its first year of production. It has been a delight! The safety features are wonderful. Styling turns heads - a week never goes by without a comment on the color on the exterior and accents on the interior. Absolutely no problems mechanically. I LOVE this car!

Can't go Wrong with the Kona

I am so pleased with the Kona's performance that I am most likely going to keep it for my granddaughter. I leased it to wait for the Santa Cruz but I am just really impressed with the Kona's performance. The only thing I wish I could change is the horn, that sounds like a bicycle horn but I love the vehicle. I hope the Santa Cruz gets to the dealership this year.

Kona 2020

I leased a Kona 2018, black and grey,but I wanted the lime one. When i went back for a sensor, I saw the line one, and that's why I resigned a lease for the 2020. I'm very proud and happy with my choice!

Kona great car

Headlights and fog lights lacking but was able to fix by replacing lamps with LEDs - now it;s great. Next time I would get the 1.6 turbo engine though 2L engine is adequate. For a small SUV, the styling and functionality is great.

excellent vehicle, smooth and great technology

great performance, stable and well designed. Kona is fun to ride and if you need to load some big the interior is very spacious to hold big stuff by collapsing the back seats. i have got the Turbo version and it is great!

I have enjoyed driving my Kona. It gets good gas mileage and has a comfortable ride. This is my first Hyundai and if it continues to be a great car for myself and husband, I am sure it will not be our last.

Kona

I have two 2018 Konas and enjoy both of them. One I purchased new and the other purchased used. Love the economy that I get from each of them . I take car of each vehicle personally , enjoy keeping them in like new condition as well as appearance. Always suggest to friends to try and drive a Hyundai before purchasing another brand of automobile.

Love our Kona

We wanted another Tucson but the price was more than we could afford. The Kona was our second choice and more affordable for us. We have had great luck with our Kona so far. Great car. We miss the extra space our Tuscon had but this car certainly is an awesome second choice.

Both: And this is the MBMS Morning Wave. Toni: In celebration of this amazing event, we thought we would remind you of some of the wisdom you gleaned while at MBMS. John: When you see a flock of seagulls flying overhear, run for cover. Toni: Keep your eye on your backpack, books, phone, and iPad. John: Study for Scholar Quiz. Toni: Remember to limp to school on Wednesdays so you can get out of run day. John: Study for the Spring testing. Toni: Search on line for a disease you can catch that will allow you to stay in school and have fun with your friends, but excuse you from swimming. Toni: Keep your PE clothes clean in case you have to wear them when you get caught in violation of the dress code. John: And most importantly we want to apologize to the parents who we told don’t worry about fancy graduation dresses and limos and big parties. They will get these experiences in 4 years when they graduate from Costa. ABOVE TAKES ABOUT 1 ½ MINUTES. Toni: And now we want to talk for a minute about the graduation dress code. I really have nothing for this part. I’m hoping you have some ideas. I’m not married to any of this. Take a look and see what you like and make improvements or even wholesale changes. I think we should say something about wearing closed toe shoes, Too short dresses, pants too low? Maybe you could say something and I could raise either tennis shoes, gym shorts, or PE shirt, depending on what you say. Or if it meets our satisfaction I could hold up a graduation hat??

Love our Kona!

Kona is just the right size for a senior couple like us. It's easy to get in and out of and easy to drive. It's big enough so we can see traffic well but not huge like most SUVs. We've been married almost 50 years and have owned numerous cars. Our Kona is the best!

I live this car. It's easy to drive and it's great on gas. By far, the Kona is the sportiest and well put together car that I know of. I travel a lot and I trust my Kona will get me there and back. This a truly a great buy!

Nice little car

This is a great little commuter car. Also works well for quick trips to the grocery store. etc. Rides nice . Good gas mileage. Stylish too. Zippy little car gets into tight spots easily. Back-up camera is a plus.
