Above The Rest!

I absolutely love everything about this vehicle. From its looks to it’s special features to the way it runs. I had a 2018 Elantra, a 2022 Kona and now this 2025 Kona is the best of them all!!!

little but mighty

This car may be a little vehicle, but it has some speed. I really am happy with my decision to get this vehicle and love the bells and whistles it has for the price.

My Kona :-)

I have been a longtime customer of Hyundai for over 25 years and when I was ready for a new car in 2025, I selected the Kona SEL SUV. Of all my car purchases, this is my most favorite! Perfect size for me to drive, love the color, so many features and plenty of room. Everyone compliments the modern look, unique color and the wheels. I am having a great time with my new car! Love it and love Hyundai! Best dealership around- Coastal Hyundai/Best Sales Guy- John Lyons

Great so far.

It's comfortable and basic. Acceleration leaves some to be desired, but nobody is buying it for that anyway.

Had to tow it back to dealer with less than 500 miles on it

Drive by wire you can’t shift from nuteral to drive without foot on break hard to go through a tunnel car wash

A little regret

Cute and comfy. But small gas tank and terrible acceleration. Cost too much for size

Great little car.

My only complaints would be finish. On the floor board beside front seats there is a small tab that sticks up through the carpet. A small cap to hold surrounding carpet down and not have a pointed tab sticking up would have made this look much better.

We are a Hyundai family. Three of our four grown daughters own the same Kona that we have. Our fourth daughter owns a Santa Fe.

Very safe and easy to drive and great on gas

Great car, great on gas and alot of safety features! The only thing that I don't like is it doesn't have any compartments for things like my sunglasses, or a console in the middle to put others things into

The Hyundai Kona is definitely a car

This is my second Kona, I had a 2022 SE model and now I have a 2025 SEL Convinence. Overall. Its very nice. The car has everything that a new car should have. The interior is nice. The seats are comfortable enough for most drives under 4 hours. I'm 6' 2" and I fit better in the 2025 vs my last Kona. The interior is built with nice feeling materials. I did have a scratch on my dash from the factory that I cant do anything about. Now, do not let the next few things I have to say detract too much from the overall experience. The transmission is bleh... the car moves and thats all that really matters but its a CVT transmission and it just feels boring and annoying to drive. The automatic cruise control and lane keep assist need some serious attention. Multiple times the automatic cruise control has hit the brakes when going up a hill thinking there was a car in front of me. With little knowledge of how the systems in the car communicate I feel this could be fixed by using the built in camera to detect if there really is a car infront or not. Overall Im happy. I have a nice new car that will last me a long time. It just has some annoyances that should be looked at.
