2023 Kona N-Line Edition

Fun to drive, zippy turbo powered 1.6 L, responsive handling with AWD. The sunroof and heated front passenger seats are a plus. Has all the safety features anyone could want. Great built in Navigation and Entertainment system. Also allows for Apple Car Play and Android Auto. Only cons would be the interior storage is quite lacking and the rear legroom just isn't there. Small trunk space also, but does have rear folding seats. Small fuel tank calls for more fill ups and MPG rating is average at best Great value for the money. Awesome little SUV/Crossover. Would highly recommend. I love mine

Very happy with the KONA

It was love at first sight. After A test drive and a lot of questions all answered to our satisfaction, we were convinced that the KONA is the car we want. We wanted to downsize. The Kona is perfect for our situation and needs.

Fun car to drive & plenty of room

If anyone is looking for a great car at a great price Hyundai is your brand. I am a fan of hatchbacks & the Kona is a perfect get around town car. Adding the turbo has made me feel confident and secure when getting up to highway speed or needing to pass.

It's the perfect sized vehicle for my style and personality.

The Kona is exactly what I want and need in a vehicle. It suits my needs and mobility. I would definitely recommend purchasing a Hyundai for anyone I know. It's affordable, dependable and practical. My overall experience driving my car so far has been so amazing. I love it.

Hyundai Kona

The vehicle is great would like to see a little more room for handicap kids or adults. The way the vehicle is made makes it easy to get in and out of with bad knees. Need to be able to have a few more functions when it comes to seats on passenger side

Perfect Compact SUV

Very stylish, smart compact SUV. The N-Line has a much more responsive engine than the standard Kona and as a result handles a bit better moving through traffic and getting on to freeways. Very tight U-turn radius means it makes it easier to maneuver this vehicle in parking lots. There's a lot of tech on this vehicle so I made sure to get the appropriate warranties for the maximum time.

A surprisingly great car

After 16 months with a 2022 Chevy Trailblazer Activ and being slightly underwhelmed, I decided to take advantage of the high trade-in value and try my luck with a 23 Kona Limited. So far, it was definitely a good choice! The exterior styling is either a "love it or hate it" deal, but I'm on the side of loving it. Interior is decent as well in the Limited, as there are soft touch spots throughout the cabin. Yes, there is more hard plastic than in luxury vehicles, but at this price point, I don't expect to be coddled in leather or total plushness! As for driving, this car is amazing. The 1.6T 195hp engine is very peppy and actually feels more powerful than it is. No worries about accelerating up an on ramp or even better, passing cars on the highway is a breeze. Add in all of the driving nannies such as Blind Spot Monitoring, Lane Keep Assist, Adaptive cruise and the very cool Highway Drive Assist (sort of semi-autonomous driving), and you've got a tremendous value. Oh, and the Harmon-Kardon stereo is quite good, again considering the price point of the vehicle. My main gripes are that there is no heated steering wheel, the Limited (and N Line) models do not offer wireless Apple CarPlay, and the DCT seems a bit janky when in stop and go traffic situations. The car sort of shimmies a bit, which isn't a big deal, but I do think it's fair to point out. Overall, I am very pleased with my Kona. Nice job Hyundai!

A Quick Bang For Your Buck

This fantastic, small, speedy SUV is perfect for the city and highway! Lots of fun without a high price tag or high fuel cost! Would totally recommend to anyone who likes to get off the line quick, but doesn't want to get caught speeding at 200mph!

It’s a small car with average mileage on gasoline.

I wish the car wouldn’t have a rattling noise coming from the side when making a left turn or u-turn. It’s constantly reminding me that I bought the wrong car, made the wrong choice in buying this car.

BETTER THAN TUCSON BUT NOT WONDERFUL

I HAD PURCHASED A 2022 TUCSON AND THAT WAS A BIG, BIG MISTAKE....THE TUCSON WAS MUCH BIGGER THAN THE 2018 I HAD AND WAS VERY UNGAINLY AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE....THE KONA IS BETTER BUT NOT WITHOUT PROBLEMS

Decent vehicle for the money

I have only driven the car for less than 1000 miles and have found some minor issues so far. There are blemishes in the paint and one of the brake light lenses has a pinhole flaw. It seems to run well so far and I haven’t had any mechanical issues yet. So far my Kona has a comfortable and quiet ride although it hasn’t been taken on a highway trip.

Mostly great car

Love the car, only a few issues to knock. Alarm is over sensitive and goes off randomly. Moving from a dead stop makes vehicle lunge a bit. Very comfortable seating and once moving fun to drive. Would recommend if you are looking for good fuel economy at good price with just a bit of storage. Trunk area is okay for one person, not a family car

Wife loves the car

Because of its styling, the Kona was the only vehicle considered. We purchased the last body dtyle because of the preferred styling over the new style of the 2024 model year. My wife had the dealer find one for her that was just right.

Happy with my Kona

I was looking for a small crossover SUV and the Kona fit the bill for me. Love the lane assist and blind spot alerts and having Apple Carplay. It's a super cute car that makes me happy when I drive it.

Very professional but friendly

The car was perfect for our family situation, looks good and rides nice. Had a good experience at the dealership, negotiated a fair price and the car was delivered the same day. Would not hesitate to buy from them again.

Kona N line

The turbo N Line is sporty looking, and has a lot of pep! I am very happy with my choice to purchase! I have owned a Kona in the past, and wanted to upgrade to a peppier model. It handles well in snow, which is another plus!

Happy owner

The kona limited is an amazing vehicle. With features you would expect in a sport luxury car costing twice as much its an amazing value. The car is incredibly responsive and very quick but gets over 30 mph in the city. The sound system is flat out awesome. It has every driver assist that my Dads $85k lincoln does. I have had many many cars of all makes over 46 years. This is the best. Add on a free three year maintenance program and ten year/100k warranty - boom. BEST BUY EVER. So yeah, Im happy.
