Great Vehicle

DCT is smooth. Good fuel economy. Great infotainment system. Sporty look. AWD and 4 wheel lock work great. Roomy up front. Could use a little more clearance and possibly magic seats in rear to increase cargo area.

Good but Engine Recall is a big concern

Bought it as a demo, and was pleased, even after finding we have the 2019 Sub Compact of the year by Car and Driver. Now it has a possible engine problem and checking for oil loss due to bad piston rings.

Kona is good

Loved how name was inspired by Hawaii. Hesitant to buy initially because price was higher than anticipated; excellent phone-car connection; sound system could be better; ride quality very sturdy and well built; nice solid vehicle.

Decent vehicle with great gas mileage

Great little car that drives well in all weather conditions with very few issues and great gas mileage. I wish it had roof rails on it and the door locks randomly when keys are inside, previous vehicles I had would not allow that.

Love It!

Hate the Road noise, Not good acceleration when merging onto highway. Do not like the black rubber exterior trim and do not like that there is no way to open the hatch from inside the vehicle, and it's hard to reach up to close it.

Review for my 2019 Hyundai Kona

This has been a wonderful vehicle - and I have not been disappointed in any way. It is comfortable, easy to drive, and easy to care for. I am proud to be on the road driving it, and I am glad I was able to get it in my favorite color - bright turquoise!

Provided excellent service so far

This vehicle the KONA Ultimate 1.6 turbo has far exceeded our expectations. The slight turbo lag has been fixed in later model years but we are satisfied. 3 other friends and family have purchased a kona since our recommendations.

Fun car -

Love the color, makes me feel young to drive a Kona. AND, I love Coffee. Probably go back to a Sonata, though. My son is 6'7", a bit crowded in the Kona. He has to drive me, right now. Shoulders are shot, need surgery! Cannot turn a corner!

Great

Its a learning process with my new 2021 Kona electric but it is easy once you learn more about the vehicle. I enjoy every moment of my ride in it. It is fun to drive and very comfortable and affordable in every way.

A Good Overall Value!

I have over 90,000 miles on my 2019 Kona AWD Ultimate. Overall pleased to date with a few minor annoyances. 1. Do not feel CarPlay is completely fleshed out as random disconnects happen to frequently. 2. Only sit in drivers seat and it could use more padding. 3. Seat position memory feature would be a real plus.

I love my Kona.

I really enjoyed my Kona I will definitely get another one! While driving I have noticed people staring at my car. There was a time someone pulled beside me and asked me how I like it. I told them I loved it. It just the right size, and fun to drive.

Really nice car

This is a nice car for the price. I bought it not looking for any expensive car but wanted some of the perks that high end cars have, such as the heated seats. I was also looking for an suv, but didn't want something to large, so this crossover seemed the right choice for me

LOVE MY KONA

I love my Kona. I had rented a Kona while in LA for a week and fell in love with it. Had to get one for myself and I'm so glad I did! I like the compact size of the car and its durability. I have been recommending it to friends!

It’s like it was made for me

I feel like if my personality could be turned into a car, this would be it. I enjoy driving my Kona SEL, I love the look, the price, and the features. Because it’s a crossover I have the extra space and added ability to expand storage above without being too bulky for the day to day drive. I’ve had my car for almost 3 years and it has been a great experience overall.

Great Value for the price

Hyundai makes a quality product for a better price than most of the competition. Reliability is good, stylish vehicles. Seems like a great combination of both. We are completely satisfied and would purchase again.

2019 Kona Limited

Overall we are very happy with our 2019 Lime Twist Kona. Keep the cool styling, safety features and please add back fun colors like Lime Twist ! We are very likely to lease another Kona or buy out our existing lease.

Any weather. Any time.

I wanted a car that was going to be able to handle the ever-changing New England weather, and in particular, the brutal winter storms we can see up here. I actually drove my 2019 Kona home for the first time during a blizzard and was immediately impressed. As an essential worker through Covid 19 this past year, the car has never sat idle, and it has never once let me down. Drives just like a nice sporty hatchback, but has the versatility of an SUV. Combine that with good fuel economy and a killer sound system and I'd call that a recipe for success. I'll probably still be driving this car 10 years from now

good

Hyundai's on a roll of late, churning out character-rich products that not only look great but also drive nicely, and the subcompact Kona is the latest in the series. The Kona's daring styling charms onlookers and avoids appearing busy despite its multifaceted sheetmetal. The cabin packs just enough of the exterior's whimsy to tie the whole package together without being—as the kids say—extra. The Kona isn't the most practical of sll the 2019 SUVs and crossovers available, but that's forgivable considering how good the rest of it is. So go0d, in fact, that we named it to our 10Best Trucks and SUVs list for 2019. Of the Kona's two available engines, we were most impressed by the performance of the turbocharged four-cylinder. Not only is the Kona fun to look at, it's also fun to drive. Well done, Hyundai

Some electrical issues. Nothing special.

Perhaps I loved with the Tuscon too much I had. The one with transmission issues! Took the only car and color the dealer had available. Car is OK. Nothing special. Great looking car but not big enough for my needs.
