Loving most everything. This is my second Kona.

Just a few things. My foot slips off the gas pedal and the brake pedal too often. I can't figure it out. The driver's seat does not return to it's previous location When returning, after moving it to exit. Maybe I just don't know how to program it. This is very aggravating. Maybe one or two but I would have to be in the car to remember.

My 2025 Kona Limited is even better than my old 2021 Kona Unlimited.

Best Kona “Ever” !!!!!

Love this SUV

I traded my 25 Santa Cruz in on this 25 Kona Kona gets better gas mileage or internal storage space and I’ve been able to go off-road camping in places I couldn’t get with the Santa Cruz. I absolutely love this little SUV.

My Headache

I have been having issues with this car now for a month and haven't had it for two month, no one knows what this issues is, so I have has the tires changed and the shocks the car still bouncing in the rear of the drivers side and not so bad on the passenger side the cover in the back is making noise, the whole car just felt like it was going to fall apart, I'm very frustrated with this car. all I want is to enjoy the car if I'm paying my money for it, but that's not happening right now.

Good car....but

This is my fourth Hyundai and the first time I have ever felt to write a review. The last two cars were a Velostar N and an earlier Kona N. Both were fast and gutsy cars. I released the Velostar N because the ride was very hard even in the normal mode. I did put it on the track and it was great. I bought the original Kona N for a little more ease of gettng in and out, but it still was too harsh of a ride for my passengers. So I just purchased the newer Kona N Line. It is not particularly fast or gutsy, but this was a compromise for my passengers, so good enough. What really irks me is the driving software. For example if I use cruise control the lane assist function also comes on. When it does I feel like I am loosing control or the car; it is driving me, instead. Very frustrating. Of course I can cancel the lane assist but this is besides the point. Maybe BMW does software like this,but I say to you and BMW: just because you can do something doesn't mean you have to. I thought Hyundai was better than this.,

Enjoying the features.

Overall a good car. Notice though the car tends to vibrate a little while driving. Didn't notice it when I first bought it and cabin gets hot from heat blowing in from vents even thought heater not on. I assume it's from the engine.
