Love my 2023 Kona. Easy to drive, lots of safety features, excellent gas mileage, great sound system. Comfortable seating, all the bells and whistles came on it that I wanted. Have not regretted my decision to buy a Hyundai.

My little Kona

The car has pep and great gas mileage! Easy to handle and the camera is nice and big but the storage is rather small. This is my last new car so I am hoping it will take good care of me during retirement.

A fun car that can compete

This is a very fun car to drive. It is a car you can definitely track and also drive to work. The different modes are nice and switching between them is very easy to do. If you want to save gas there's a mode and if you wanna go fast there's a mode as well

Smooth Driving

This vehicle is much better than my last purchased vehicle. The navigation of my previous car was poorly inaccurate, with no assistive capabilities and very few safety technology capabilities. I feel more comfortable driving my current vehicle.

Fin to drive

Great mini SUV for one or two adults and small child or two or maybe a dog. Fun to drive with it's fast pick up and tight steering. Not for anyone who wants to transport large items or several adults.

Good vehicle

Good vehicle, need a few improvements. NO LED lights for a 2023 Model. Navigation and rear styling can be improved. Fuel milage good. Turbo power low at accelerating. Too many plastics inside. Excellent warranties and maintenance.

Solid SUV!

The Kona is a very solid SUV with a peppy turbo motor coupled to a quick shifting dual clutch transmission, The all wheel drive is worth it's weight in gold here in central NH! Handling and cornering are solid, controlled, and make this little SUV a kick to drive!

Sporty, fun, practical

Definitely recommend for those looking for a more fun AWD option. Good gas mileage, love the interior/exterior design, and excellent warranty. Being my first newer car, there have been some features that took a bit of getting used to, so looking for a way to limit any unnecessary alerts. However, overall very happy with my choice.

Red Dawg

So much fun to drive. Not much cargo space but not needed for me. Good sporty look. Turbo engine has a lot of pep. Sounds good too. Handling and steering is fun. Ultimate Red color is shiny and glossy. Just a good looking vehicle.

Oil, consumption issues

Oil consumption issues. Sometimes I have to turn off the car and turn it back on to get things to work. My gas mileage sucks and I bought it for the good gas mileage customer care doesn't speak English and I can't understand them horrible experience with Hyundai thank goodness the dealership is helping me.

Too much money for what you get

Many issues with this car. It looks great, its fast and turns quick with a great sound system. But, the transmission is so slow regarding reaction time, the car dings and beeps at you all the time when it shouldn't be (cars in your blind spots), the seat belt chime will drive you crazy if you take it off even 1 second before you stop.

Great Car

The 2023 Kona is a great car. I replaced a Honda CR-V and love that the Kona is a little smaller but doesn't feel small on the road. It's a very solid and stable car. I don't think I've ever been as satisfied with a car before. . .unless it's the Sonata I had years ago.

Great in very specific conditions!

My 2023 Kona N is a very good vehicle on the verge of being gray but unfortunately just missing the mark on a few things. To get some small stuff out of the way, the driver speedometer screen looks as though it’s outline by a skinny plastic border which makes it look out of place almost as if it was aftermarket or too small for the area it is in. My driver profile was deleted from the car a week after I made it which was frustrating. Audio also failed to play a couple times until I did a full shutdown and restart of the vehicle. The big items are: suspension is a bit too firm in all modes with exception of N mode. Their is little room in the back seats and not enough storage space. When the car is loaded with passengers or luggage you can definitely feel the difference in its capabilities. The driving is very fun and engaging but I think the vehicle just needs a bit more power to be competitive and a little more room in the back would be nice. The rims and body styling look great but I think the wheels are too big for a good tire fit. The tires are so thin that they can’t help the suspension at all so little bumps feel huge especially in N mode.

Hyundai knows how to build a proper hot-hatch, even if they don't call it that!

The Kona N is my 4th Hyundai (20th vehicle overall) and tied with my previous Veloster N as the most fun car I've owned. I've owned Hondas, Toyotas, Mustangs, Corvettes, BMWs, Abarths, Mazdaspeeds.. Hyundai has quickly shot up the ranks from the car you bought because you had no other choice, to the car you buy because nothing else comes close. In terms of design, performance, technology, value, efficiency; it's all there in spades. The other major manufacturers have become to reliant on resting on their previous reputations, and have thus failed to innovate and push boundaries the way Hyundai / Kia / Genesis have been. The Koreans have something to prove, and let me tell you, they're proving it.

Crossover Confort

Great vehicle, stylish and comfortable. Great gas mileage and great audio sound. Display screen is perfect size and touch screen is an ease. Great screen view when backing up. Cruise control, car shut off at stop lights. I am really happy with my Kona!

Fantastic Car

I was in the market for a new car, and saw the Kona on the road, and instantly fell in love with. I saw it. I liked it. I wanted it. I bought it! My buying experience at Hyundai Central Florida with Adam was simple and no pressure; in and out within an hour. The Kona modes of smart, and sport driving are fun and I love the features she has. A recommend a kona to anyone!

This car is fantastic and fun to drive. Best buying experience ever

Every American made car to date has let me down. The warranty is not that great and the vehicles are not worth the price. I went with a Hyundai for the price and Warranty and got the best buying experience you could ask for. In and out in a hour with easy financing through Hyundai.
