2025 Kona

Great safety features included, and great warranty. Good price. Excellent exterior styling, as in most of the Hyundai line up. Very reliable, had a 2022 drove to 56k without issue before trading in.

Jury’s out on this one

My vehicle with 2300 yes 2300 miles is in for service. I am without a vehicle already and I am not happy this is not why I purchased Hyundai or brand new.

So far I like the Kona but I feel some changes could make it better.

I think licking the rear section could be a leafier. I find that after I lick the vehicle I could still open the back trunk area. I was told to wait ten seconds before the lock is completed.

Great Family Vehicle

The Kona is a fantastic small family vehicle. There's a lot you can do with it. From bike racks to small trailers it's towing is pretty good. It lacks on response time from 0-25mph, making quick acceleration in intersections tricky. It also should have auto up/down rear windows as well. It's 2025, figure it out. The suspension is also very soft, while comfortable, it makes for a top heavy car that could tip on turns or emergencies if you're not careful. Overall, great car, with only a few flaws.

Nice little car that’s BIG on space!

There’s more space in this thing than I thought up the back seats down. Take the shade off the back window, and you can carry a lot of stuff in it.

Fun little family SUV

This is my second Kona and I still love it! The added space from the 1st GEN to the 2nd GEN made this kona even better. Great for the family and road trips. Spacious, stylish, and full of safety features.
