What a Blessing. My First New Car!

What a fun and exhilarating ride. This car fits me to a T. I have the SEL AWD Limited in Ultimate Red Metallic. As I said, this is my first new car. Being a 69 year old geek, I love the technology behind everything. It’s also nice to spool up the turbo and let the car do the rest.

A Problem from day 3

My 2026 Hyundai Kona had to be taken into service the third day that we had it and then again 26 days later when Hyundai could not fix it they kept my car for about 45 days until they could finally get the parts that they needed to fix it then again after we picked it up, there was a second problem that they couldn’t get the part for and so they had the car I believe for another 21 days so in the first 90 days that we own the car I believe we had it for under 30 of those days

Good car but lacks some back features

Over all thwe 2026 Kona is a good car/suv. But here is a few lacks some basic features like: The heavy Trunk/rear hatch auto closer buttton Why is there an auto shut off & restart for car Engine? Yes you can disable that feature with a button on dash, BUT you have to push that button everytime you start the car. I also nioticed once you hit the auto start/stop on, it does not shut off. Have to use Andiod Auto for maps, what too cheap to include basic navigation? What no rear cup holders? What New Venting for rear seats?

Cute but maddening for bike racks

Even with just the rack, no bikes, rear sensors cause extended warning beeps every time you go in reverse. Every time - cannot be disabled (without voiding warranty). Cross-traffic sensors: fantastic! Rear sensors that react every time you hit R and there is an attached immobile bike rack: untenable! Also, cameras are placed too low. And steering is too loose. But it is the cutest car ever! I was heartbroken to have to trade it in after only 4 months due to sensor and visibility issue making every drive stressful and unsafe. Hyundai, you cost me trade-in value b/c of the necessity of the trade!!

Review

Disappointed with media sound quality, passenger seating, voice integration, and lack of feature status memory auto features, also lack of turn cameras and 3d view, could not get limited without sunroof that restricts headroom.
