What's Not to Love?

This cute little crossover SUV is a dream come true. It's comfortable to drive or ride in, the safety features work great, the sound system is really good, it holds more cargo than it looks like it would, and it's easy and fun to drive. My Kona helped me rediscover how enjoyable driving can be...at least when you're not driving in rush hour traffic. The only slight negative I could attribute to this vehicle is that the AC doesn't get as icy cold as some other vehicles, which can be a big deal in summer in Texas. Not a dealbreaker by any means, and not even worth it to me to upgrade to a bigger Hyundai SUV that has ventilated seats. Too much in love with my Kona - even after more than 2 years!

2023 Kona (AWD)

I love my car. It's comfortable and handles very well in all weather conditions. I wish that there was less road noise from the tires/car. I think better quality in that needs improvement.

Good mpg so far at 34. Easy handling. Make sure to read the owner's manual for understanding all the bells and whistles.

Amazing Vehicle

The car is comfortable to sit in, whether it be for short or long drives. The handling is smooth, and so is the drive, it feels like I'm just gliding along. The safety features like the emergency brake if there is a detection of a vehicle too close while driving, the alert that comes up if you're going too fast and there is a stopped vehicle in front of you is amazing features to have. The lane assist and cruise control that I use during longer drives really feels as if there is an experienced driver in the front seat. While the car is a compact SUV, there is plenty space in the backseat and trunk. I really enjoy having access to my vehicle wherever I am with the bluelink app. In the winter I can remote start the vehicle so it is warm when I get in, I get notifications if the doors are unlocked, if it has been on without movement for a specific time, if my trunk is open, and I can also locate it at any time. The screen in the front is a perfect size and is easy to navigate even while driving.

Very comfortable car

I love the car. It's a little smaller than I'm used to but still has plenty of room. I've had to make trips that are over 500 miles recently and the car has been very comfortable. I also really like the Blue link app. I would've rated build quality a 10 but the horn didn't work when I purchased it. It took me a little while to realize the car was broken, I thought I was doing something wrong.

Pretty good little SUV

I don’t drive a lot so I only get around 24mpg until I get on the highway and improve to around 35mpg. But it’s a good car for the price. Can’t beat the warranty and it’s pretty comfortable on longer trips. I love the AWD capabilities when the weather is bad. Gives me peace of mind.

Teresa’s Kona

The size of this vehicle is wonderful for just me. It’s nice on gas but the tank is not that big. I don’t like the plastic that they use in and outside of the car it scratches very easily.

Hyundai Kona 2023

A nice car for the money. A few changes I would make, most of them things I should have purchased on the car and didn’t. The only real design flaw that I saw right away was the mechanism that is supposed to spray fluid on the back hatch window. It’s awful. The interior does need some more “storage spaces.” But all in all a good car. I like driving it, it performs well. I have had no trouble with it and I would recommend it.

All is good, except seat belt seems shorter, goes across but rides up your body. Needs to stay lower. Some features I still have no idea how to use. Simple feature like adjusting steering while would have been helpful if shown how to lock in place.
