Great little vehicle but some features are a challenge

The Kona N-Line is a sharp fun vehicle. Great gas mileage and handling with a powerful 1.8L Turbo engine. Maybe slightly overpriced vs some competitor vehicles in same category but great buy. Some features are difficult to find when using the displays but overall ease of use is great with the large display.

Very Happy with Kona

Great for both road trips but also a great fit for a city with tighter parking and garages. A lot of great features especially for the price! Good fuel economy both in the city and on the highway. Has been a great value and fit for our family.

Dealership was very impressive

Good feeling from everyone involved with the sale. Expecting the same when service is needed. Sales Manager was especially helpful for all of our questions. The exact vvehicle we were looking for was not on their lot but he had one for us the next day.

Really good car

Very solid and stylish car. I would rate it higher except it is burdened with a IVT transmission. Loses a large amount of performance and daily drivability if you live near any hills and use your cruise control. Steering is very sharp and brakes are responsive.

Love my new Kona!

Little hot hatch is back. I like the versatility and how it handles and drives. Sporty meets fuel efficient with cargo room. While it seems small at first it’s a really fun car to drive. Infotainment system is awesome and love the blue link features (remote start choices, locate, etc.)

Rides great

Enjoy driving my Kona. It has all the features I was looking for. This is the 5th Hyundai I have purchased. A 2003 Tiboron, 2007 Santa Fe, 2011 Tucson and 2014 Tucson Limited. Hyundai's are very reliable vehicles.

Kona limited

The kona is an amazing and fun ride. It is smooth and enduring to all the elements that Washington state can provide. If you ever are in the mood to buy a crossover, the kona limited is a great choice to make!

Affordable Small SUV

The 2023 Kona SEL is a nice small SUV for the price. It comes with on-demand AWD but is pretty basic as far as styling and comfort. The fuel economy is fairly good for an SUV, coming in at about 25-28 in mostly start-and-stop driving. The highway economy is around 33-35. Overall, it's a utilitarian vehicle with few bells and whistles -- but those are available with higher-end option packages.

Love the car. It’s has all the latest tech to make my drive comfortable and safe. I decided to go with the N Line Trim because it was really nice styling compared to the SEL. I get a lot of compliments Thanks!

Best overall purchase for a secondary vehicle

The features, design, financing, and warranty allowed my husband and I to make the best decision for us overall. The smaller SUV offered some of the comforts that we expected. Their would be some additions that I would add to the overall vehicle.

fun car

drive like a cart in sport mode. Very good styling. Wish it has a longer range and LED lights in the front like the Limited model. Exclusive model as very few N Line on the road. The blue color is even rarer as there was only one available in this configuration/color in 250 miles radius. And now you can't find any

Best looking vehicle in its segment

Great subcompact cross over. Researched the competition for 3 months. The Kona has far surpassed my expectations in parking, fuel consumption and comfort in the cabin. Great looking cross-over. Even though I didn't get the turbo, it has adequate performance and passing power. The variable transmission is better than expected

2023. Kona Nline

The Kona is a great value for the money. It is a sporty car that is fun to drive. For the money, the Kona is loaded with options that other cars in its class and price range don’t have. My daughter is the primary driver of this car and she loves it.

easy to use. Enjoying all the drive functions available. Great vehicle for older drivers who don't need a big suv since the kids are out of the house. Love the new tech driver assistance features for lane merging and vehicles or pedestrians warnings.

Fun, affordable drive

The Kona is a great small-sized SUV for zipping around town or even taking a journey on the interstate. It’s comfortable, has decent “pep” and gets you where you want to go in comfort. Sound system is good, low road noise and good handling. Still a bargain considering the prices of other cars on the market whose cost truly cannot be justified unless you just have a lot of money you don’t need.

Nice, but annoying little car.

The Kona is stylish and a solid car, but has some annoying traits. The cargo space in the rear is smaller than my previous Hyundai. The warning systems make it feel like an overbearing parent keeps telling you how to drive. It would be a help for those who need such help. I do not. Other than that, it is fun to drive and gets over 31 miles per gallon for me. It handles well in inclement weather.

A great small car

This is one of the smaller cars available. It gets good mileage and has a great warranty but is also fun to drive and the hatch-back makes it very useable. I went for the 190hp version which seems like a good choice. A very good experience so far.
