Would buy this car an again, if it had a bigger trunk space.

Vehicle experience is great for the most part! Helps out a lot traveling long or short distances, computer system is good on the alerts, but is slow to respond for maintenance issues.

way too many suggestions for a machine to have

Not unique to this car, but I really hate screen interfaces. I don't like a car "trying to be helpful" by guessing what I want (hint: it's NOT locking the door every 30 seconds while I try to load up for a gig). I especially hate a machine misreading a situation that is perfectly safe and braking FOR ME. Feels kind of, well, unsafe! I will say this handles better in snow than anything else I've ever driven, but overall, I miss my 2005 Civic, which never did anything other than exactly what I asked it to do.

My Kona

Great car however, it loses compression on even small hills with the bigger engine and is a little slow to pick up on the highway.

Basically happy

I am happy with my Kona. Only concern is updating the GPS. That should be a dealer service

Love it

I love my little Kona. Literally will hate to see it go due to needing a more family friendly car. My only complaint is that my kids say the leg room sucks in the back.

My Kona NLine

I like the car but the transmission is a little weird at times. Sometimes when you go to take off, it doesn’t want to go. The engine will rev but the car won’t go. When it finally does go, it jerks hard and takes off.

Kona

Kona – small economical, but I don’t understand is when you call Hyundai the recording tells you to press a button to get to the person or department but the feature in the car doesn’t let you do that 🤦🏻‍♀️
