Not happy with the restyling of the Kona

First, the shifting "paddle" or whatever you call it is always hidden by the steering wheel when parked. When starting the car, you have to move the wheel to see the lever. And the D and R letters are counter-intuitive to me and others I have spoken to. Maybe its a cultural thing but it doesn't seem natural and I have to, EVERY TIME I SHIFT, look to see that I'm shifting into the gear. More than once, have gone the wrong way - I HATE IT. Start button - again, hidden by the steering wheel, which seems thicker to me so it obviously covers more area. Too big a screen, too much stuff on it, dangerous to try to see all the choices while driving. Do we really need all these bells & whistles? They take away our attention while driving rather than help us. Yes, once we get them loaded into the car, but again do we need all this? I can't seem to find how to keep the mileage/miles gone/average mileage from being deleted, on the trip computer, every time I stop the car on a trip. The very small section in the manual I found doesn't tell me much. What I do like: it is bigger and I feel safer although the design looks like a tank to me (my car is gray). I like the paddles that downshift as I live where there are a lot of hills. Gas mileage is pretty good. Quiet, comfortable, roomy ride.

Disappointed. Not at all happy with my purchase.

My 2025 Kona has been in the shop for over a month for a repair after it just stopped working. Very disappointing

My dream in FL

I am totally thrilled about my new Kona! The ease of use, stylish exterior and lavish interior, makes me proud of be a new owner. The warranty and gas mileage is a ➕️ plus and 5 star ratting.

Our Kona has met the quality standards we expected from a Hyundai.

The Kona is just the right size for us. We are older, and tall, so the height and leg room is great. Overall we are pleased with gas mileage. This is our third Hyundai, and 3 months out from purchase it has been the quality we expect from Hyundai. The blue link is new for us, but it seems to be pretty intuitive, and convenient. The safety features are a must as we have a 130 mile commute everyday. The screen size is easy to see, rear camera has a broad view.

A well made car

I have had this car for roughly 3 months and it is fantastic. It rides so smooth, has all the features I wanted and needed in a car and the customer service within Hyundai has been wonderful.

Outstandingly safe

It is a reliable vehicle, I previously just got into my first and hopefully only car accident and going from a non-reliable vehicle of 2008 Kia to a 2025 hyundai truly made me feel extremely comfortable with driving again.
