Affordable, reliable and stylish

I looked at this vehicle because motor trend rated it 2nd overall in a list of subcompact SUVs. It drives very well, it is affordable, user-friendly and I like the design.

A few perks missing

Love my car. But, Missing home link garage opener. Missing power passenger sear. And most importantly, missing memory driver seat.

Great small crossover with nice standard features

Love my Kona! Good gas mileage and smooth ride. The standard features are nice, especially the electronics and entertainment system. Styling is very modern, and the interior is roomier than it first appears. The only thing that would be nice to have is something like Homelink built in to control things like the garage door opener, etc.
