Kona Ultimate

I’ve had my car one year now and absolutely LOVE it. Got rid of my Acura and bought this Hyundai. My Kona is easy to drive, has a little pep in its step, easy to parallel park and fun to hit the road with.

I like my Kona.

The Kona is a great value . It's fun to drive and packed with features. I'm still finding cool stuff every day. The 1.6 liter turbo is a must get, it makes the car adifferent animal from the 2 liter. Acceleration is smooth and powerful.

Best small SUV

I traded a Nissan Juke for the Hyundai Kona. I like vehicles that are not cookie cutter designed. It has more room than my previous vehicle but still has character. Performance in weather is very good.

A Sports Car with 4 doors!

My Kona (Limited) is an absolute JOY to drive! The exterior styling, QUICKNESS (Turbo), beautiful black leather interior w/lime accents + black headliner.... Wow! This little Crossover is cat-quick and handles just like a sports car, but with seriously better MPG -- I've averaged a combined 30MPG...Plus, the sound system is very rich and crystal clear -- with lots of booming, tight Bass!

Hyundai Kona_2019

I love my new Kona. It has become important in so many ways. I have a son who is handicapped and I drive him to and from work. He is a large man and fits in the passenger seat easily. I can go shopping or garage-saling and load a lot of things in the back and still have room for an extra passenger and my dog in her car seat. The car handles well in all weather and in Alaska, that's so important. It looks good and is fun to drive. Parking is a breeze because of the size and I have saved a lot of money on gasoline, because of improved mileage. I would (and have) recommend Hyundai to everyone and especially Kona to those who need an SUV but not as much room.

LED running light has water inside in 1 week after purchase

I have never owned Hyundai before and gave a try with Kona 2019 SEL AWD. Within 1 week after purchase, it built up water condensation inside LED running lights. When contacting dealer, they say it is normal and does not want to fix or honor the warranty. I would take Hyundai's "America's Best Warranty" with a big grain of salt. Never experienced like this in a brand new car with other brands such as Nissan and Lexus. Who knows what nightmare awaits down the road when within first week already had a poor build quality issue with no solution? Next time, I will stick with Lexus, Toyota or Nissan.

My KONA

Easy, efficient and stylish way to move around a metropolitan area. Surprisingly roomy interior and comfort level. The ride is solid and the handling is crisp with good steering response. Great climate control.

Best SUV in the market

The Hyundai Kona is very quiet, safe and economic. Best value for the money. All the features in most high end vehicles are standard in the Kona. I selected the SEL model due to the smart key. The safest under 25k suv in the market.

Excellent Vehicle, high quality and all of the latest safety and "tech" features.

We did a lot of research on compact SUVs before purchasing this vehicle. The wife loves everything about it. The only complaint is the road noise at Interstate Highway speeds. I also find myself having to adjust the volume on the sound system due to the changes in road noise. Would also like the feature of storing seat position and mirror settings for 2 drivers.

Kona

I love my car! It is super quick and I love all the warning signals (like the lane changing). My car is bright green and the kids in my school call it The Green Machine. It is the best investment I have made in a long time. Thank you Hyundai People :)

Car is great

I love the look of the car. Its got hreat gas mileage but im not sure if it was made for all the hills that i live in. It doesnt shift like i think it should, the rpms will be very high at the top of a hill before it finally shifts back down.

2019 KONA SEL

I've owned and leased all new elantrs's sonata's tucson and now a kona, have been satisfied with all. The KONA however is loaded with so many safety features, when on the interstates it pretty much drives itself especially in inclement weather and at night tracks the center of the road and lock awd, built in alerts. Just an excellent drive.

Goldilocks vehicle

Perfect car for mountain commuting. I get really good gas mileage, but it is big enough to feal safe. Super cute and handles well. AWD excellent in snow and the 2.0 engine is peppy in this size vehicle.

Kona EV

This is a very well appointed small SUV with an excellent electric drive system. The fit and finish is top of the line, it is easy to get in and out of. and the form factor is well thought out with the length-width-height ratios in an appealing proportion.
