Cramped interior with big exterior

This is a good car for someone who just needs a small hatchback but wants to look like they own an SUV. It is very bulky, but that somehow does not translate to having much cargo space. The interior (of this particular trim) has random red stripes, and the exterior has a spoiler, but it seems like these features are mostly present so the car owner can feel youthful. Don't get if you have big dogs (or even dogs with long legs). Don't get if anyone who will be sitting in the backseat has long legs. The front seats also feel cramped (and I am only 5'2"). The drive assist features are very distracting, and they are difficult to differentiate from one another, so it's hard to tell when you're being informed of an actual emergency vs. when it's dinging for a reason that doesn't actually require you to look away from the road. For instance, lane assist dings when I am purposefully switching lanes and have my turn signal on. I end up thinking it is an emergency and have swerved because of it when I didn't need to. There are a number of alerts that seem to do this. I would turn them off if I could. Visibility is also low when you have the back seats up. I mentioned this to the dealership, and they suggested I remove the headrests. You're probably wondering why I didn't just remove the whole car? I tried to swap it for something else a day later but was told it would have to be an entirely new sale/nothing I paid would count toward the swap.

Don't really understand this question.

I didn't review the summary. If I had I wouldn't have purchased this vehicle. I didn't know I was going to end up with a brand new vehicle this one. I didn't ask about the gas mileage or the trunk space which I need cuz I keep equipment.

Cramped & Horrible Bluetooth Connectivity

I am so sorry we bought this car. The only good thing about it is it looks really good and it has bright collars. It is small cramps Top of the car is surrounded that when you put paddle boards or a ski rack on top you have to place the cross bar is very close 21 another. Every single time I get into the car I have to reconnect my phone. It doesn't seem to allow 2 drivers To have equal footing when pairing devices. Hyundai tried to appeal to every single person in the world therefore making the system so complicated no one can use it With ease. I went to the dealer and called the Hyundai blue link and they couldn't even figure it out.

This car can’t get out of it’s own way.

Buy ANYTHING but a Hyundai. Run. Run far and run fast. Try a Toyota, they seem to be pretty reliable. If they still made Yugos, I’d suggest one of those over this steaming pile of automotive feces. Buyer beware.

Safety a Major Concern

Safety a major concern, too much vehicle rocking even at low speeds, too much rocking in winds over 20mph. Vehicle doesn't blow in winds as usual like other vehicles, it feels like it will tip over. Not good service to address issues I had during my first visit, especially since i am a first time Hyundai owner. Once purchased, dealership didn't seem concerned about issues within the 1st month of purchase. Will stay with Toyota, Honda or Lexus going forward. Even though I leased the vehicle, I traded in the vehicle which meant I lost money, but just didn't feel safe in the vehicle.

Could be better

Car windshield chips easily one chip spread toward half the windshield. I’ve had it for 3 months and the windshield is now cracked. Interior easily wears out and stains easily. Feature are slow and a bit delayed when it comes to music

Not a safe experience

I’ve only had this car for 29 days and I almost died. Mind you this car is 2024 bought brand new car with 0 miles. There’s no reason for the breaks to stop randomly working and for it to accelerate on its own. This car is a safety hazard and has been reported to have this issue often within the Kona’s yet it’s not fully resolved before releasing the vehicle out to the public.
