I enjoy driving my vehicle and it is smooth sailing each time.

It is very reliable and I feel at ease when driving it.

Comfortable and Stylish but with some flaws

I've generally enjoyed owning my 2025 Hyundai Kona. It's fun to drive, looks sharp, and the overall ride quality and comfort have been great for my needs. The tech and safety features are appreciated, and for the most part, it feels like a solid, thoughtfully designed vehicle. That said, there’s one issue that has been especially frustrating—and I hope it can be addressed in a future update. Apple CarPlay causes problems when I try to record voice memos on my iPhone. The recordings come out distorted or unclear while connected to CarPlay in my Kona, which doesn’t happen in other vehicles I use. I rely on voice memos regularly, and this issue really interferes with that. I’ve tested the same phone in other cars, and it works perfectly, so it seems like something specific to the Kona’s CarPlay system. I've also seen other Kona and Hyundai owners online reporting connectivity issues or odd behavior with Apple CarPlay—so I know I'm not alone in this. I’d really love to see Hyundai investigate and fix this, because the rest of the experience has been great. Reliable voice features are a basic expectation with modern vehicles, and when they don't work as intended, it takes away from the overall value of the car.

I love the car so far. I've only had my Kona for 3 months, but I wish I could tun off the idling feature.
