Great crossover

It’s a good price and a good ride and also good on gas and the only thing I have a problem with is the cruise control works sometimes and sometimes it doesn’t but all in all the crossover is great for a daily automobile

Fits My Needs

The 2019 Hyundai Kona is the perfect CUV/SUV for my needs. I was looking for a smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicle, and the Kona does the job. It's surprisingly quick even though I don't have the 1.6 turbo model. It's a good-looking vehicle that is easy to drive, easy to own, and fits my lifestyle.

QUITE SATISFIED

I WOULD SAY THAT MY KONA IS MORE THAN SATISFACTORY FOR WHAT WE WANT AND NEED. I WAS UPSET AFTER THE DEAL WAS CLOSED AND I LOOKED AT THE WINDSHIELD STICKER & FOUND I HAD BEEN CHARGED FOR FLOOR MATS THREE TIMES. TO LATE NOW, BUT I'LL SURE STUDY THE WINDSHIELD STICKERS CLOSER NEXT TIME (IF I LIVE LONG ENOUGH FOR A NEXT TIME)

Just what Iwanted.

Kona came with all the features I wanted. Have been very happy with this vehicle since I bought it. Really like the ride and comfort of my Kona. Glad I got the turbo engine. Enjoy the sun roof (my wife's idea).

Excellent EV value that is also a practical and assured daily driver

The most important factor in our selection was that it was the only 2-wheel drive EV with front wheel drive that we could find, but in addition, the range is among the best in class. Other features that have become especially appreciated as we lived with the car is the paddle shifter controlled regenerative braking, the exceptional handling with minimal body lean, the quiet but strong and torquey performance of the electric motor and the charging port on the front of the car.

Overall a good car

This is an excellent starter car for individuals looking for a durable, reliable, fuel-saving vehicle. This has luxury features without paying the premium price that luxury cars cost. This is truly for the budget-saver.

I like the car Although I’ve only had it for three months

I like the vehicle so far. The locking/unlocking system is sometimes frustrating. The navigation system is excellent. The Car provides good fuel economy and has Good pick up in acceleration when passing other vehicles

I like the Kona so much I extended the lease !

I chose to lease the 2019 Kona Limited before it won the 2019 NAIAS Small SUV Award, and I have no regrets. In my opinion its the best looking Hatchback on the road, and most capable do to its LED Headlights, All Wheel Drive, Hill Decent and Locking Rear Differential. To put it simply....If a Lamborghini and a Jeep made a baby, it would look like a Hyundai Kona.

Kona Ultimate - Reliable and Fun To Drive

Have owned my Kona going on two years with very little required maintenance and no major issues of any kind. It has very good acceleration, is fun to drive, and it's been a great daily driver. I also love the (now discontinued) Lime Twist color.

2019 Kona Unlimited

I have been purchasing/leasing Hyundai vehicles for over 20 years. This Kona is probably my favorite vehicle so far. It is stylish, well built, has good gas mileage, is fun to drive, and has all of the comfort and features that I wanted in a small SUV. I am leasing this vehicle and am considering replacing it with a Kona EV this year at the end of my current lease.

It is a pretty serviceable ev except for the Battery recall

A pretty good Ev overall, except for the exploiding battery recall (campaign#200) which was not very well handled. Thin patent leather seats, a mediocre audio system, brutal range reduction on really cold winder days. The brakes tend to grab aggressively because the transition between regen and friction based braking is a bit sketchy. The driver assist features are a bit early stage, e.g. the lane keeping assist is just a teaser. Turns itself off, and the audio warning for this is barely audible. I wish it was adjustable louder. Pluses: inexpensive to operate, and there is virtually no maintenance needed.

Kona drives great!

Purchased the Kona over the Tucson based on price versus interior size AND fun to drive aspect. Driving has proven to be safe, agility high and never a chore. I always look forward to taking it to the golf course. Will research either keeping this or finding a newer model.

Considered several vehicles before purchasing my Kona. I have no regrets. The Kona is a great car - great performance, style, comfort, and value. I spend a LOT of time in my Kona and have no complaints about performance or comfort.

My Kona

Did extensive research prior to purchasing the Kona, it was tops in the overall reviews . Overall design is better than anything in its class, the features that put it above others in its class ; select all wheel drive, sport shifting, backup camera, touch screen plus more. Great value in today’s car market

Great care and so many features - more than other vehicles on the market.

I searched and searched to purchase another vehicle. I had leased this car for three years and upon searching for other vehicles to buy, I stayed with Hyundai. I purchased my lease because it is a dependable and awesome care. The features on this car far out weighted other vehicles I test drove. Thanks Hyundai!!

Great Vehicle

We purchased two of these vehicles for our security department to use as patrol vehicles for a gated community. They work very well for us. They are great in the snow and have great gas mileage. We were very happy with our purchase.

2019 Kona Se turbo

I am extremely satisfied with my Kona purchase. This is my first new car purchase.I love the safety features and styling of this vehicle. Acceleration is a little sluggish when not in sport mode. This is my only complaint. I would recommend this vehicle with all the extras and turbo to everyone in the the market for a sub compact suv.
