Love My Kona

I’m a former RAV4 owner-in fact, I have owned 2 RAV4’s for a cumulative total of nearly 20 years. I was really skeptical to take a look at the Hyundai Kona, but was urged to do so by friend. WOW! I am over the moon about my new 2021 Kona! It handles like a dream, gas milage is phenomenal. I work less than 10 miles from my home, and only fill up once every 11/2 -2 weeks. The features and tech on this vehicle are both fun and so practical. I use my remote start ALL the time on those cold mornings/evenings and the CarPlay connection with my phone is really helpful. Being able to seamlessly go from listening to music or a podcast straight to the car media is fun, and hands free ability to answer important phone calls is a must. What the car lacks in rear and cargo space is made up by luxury comfort for the driver and front passenger. You get so much for your money in this car-I highly, highly recommend it!!!

Love it

Love my Kona it’s not too big or too small perfect car for me. I love the handling. It’s fun to drive. Love that it’s a smooth and quiet ride. Roomy back seats for someone who might be small or tall. Front seats very comfortable. A lot of room in the hatch for storage and groceries.

Great small SUV

For getting around, getting good gas mileage, this small size SUV does the job. The Kona is comfortable with good safety features. We like the styling and the color. Hope it gives us many years of reliable service.

Good

This is a nice car . But I don’t get the gas mileage. For a small car. But everything else is greatly the car . It come with a choice . For SMX radio. And it drives nice. Love the heated seats. And I’m looking in the future to try to get a electric and gas car.

Safety and Reliability At Its Best

The 2021 Kona is a good looking and affordable vehicle with the essential safety and driver assisted features that I need for my day to day commute. The warranty and the great service that I received from Antwerpen Hyundai's Sales Associate Mr. Tyrone Melvin sealed the deal for me.

My New Kona

First time I saw a Kona parked next to me, it totally caught my eye - very stylish and fun! At the time, I wasn't sure I was ready to buy a new car, but went home to research and found the safety ratings were very high and it had a price I could afford. I purchased within the week........ Really glad I did - love the car - it's small, but perfect for me (I find 90% of the time I'm alone, either running errands or shopping). Not a lot of leg room in back for passengers, but again most of the time I'm alone. Handles the road really well, good braking and acceleration, all the bells and whistles. SO happy with my new Kona!

Kona > Sentra

I still remember the first day I drove my Sentra, brand new and all. Granted there’s a 6 yr difference between the Sentra I had and the Kona I’m financing but man oh man do I love the way it drives, amazing sounds, just enough space. No complaints so far.

Kona

I went to buy a white Venue. They didn’t have a white one, only silver which I don’t care for. So the sales rep drove around the Kona (with a roof rack, lol) It didn’t that much “selling” on her part as I knew that I was leaving with a Hyundai SUV

Only Driven 200 miles so far.

So far I do love my new Hyundai Kona SE. Love the Chalk White color and the overall design. There are a couple of things that do get annoying, but luckily you can shut them off. Traction Control button makes the car a little too jumpy when it's on when pressing on the brake. So for city driving I just turn that off and the same with LKA Lane Keeping Assistant. For city driving it beeps way too much that it needs to be turned off also.

Hyundai Kona is a fun to drive sporty subcompact SUV

I first learned about the Kona n Consumer Reports. I wanted a small SUV that was fun to drive. The Kona was consistently rated among the top 3 in that category for performance, quality and reliability. I test drove 3 cars and was especially looking for a vehicle with good handling and power. The Kona turbo engine met all my expectations. It accelerates up hills nicely and merges easily and smoothly onto the interstate. Beyond the engine performance, the Kona is sporty looking and very stylish. The interior is comfortable and even has lumbar support for the driver seat. The safety features are wonderful (including a heads up display) and easily operated in the event you want to disable any for some reason. The infotainment system is super easy to use and has voice recognition capabilities for navigation and phone. There is a generous complementary Bluelink subscription included for 3 years which makes navigating especially convenient and even supports remote start via a phone app. I love driving my new Kona! This is my first Hyundai and so far I’ve been very impressed with the car and the dealership. Everyone went out of their way to make the buying experience easy and enjoyable. I would absolutely recommend this vehicle to others.

Compact sporty fuel efficient crossover

I was in the hole on a BMW X3. The values plummeted. I replaced it with this 2021 Hyundai Kona. I love it. Yes the bmw accelerated faster but the mpg reflected. This Kona has everything I wanted. Love it.

Kona

I am very happy with the car to this point! My experience with the dealership has been very good! My sales person was wonderful! This part is annoying as it is too soon after purchase to go into to great detail, and to be forced to have 200 characters is frustrating! I can give you my opinion in 5 GREAT
