Good choice

Downsized from my Tucson. I love my Kona. Sharp care especially white. Good response not slow at all. Comfortable seating and you sit higher. I absolutely love the style.A bit noisy, a lot of wind and road noise. Had it up to 75 on the freeway and began to get rough. Fine with me as I don't plan that being a habit. I do miss the storage in the back as for me it's disappointing but I was up for it. Otherwise I love the car. Get white!

Kona N is a blast

The Kona N is really fun to drive and good on gas. The road noise is a little bothersome but just turn up the sound system and it’s not so bad. The leg room in the backseat is not the best but it’s a really cool little crossover and hauls ass.

A pleasant surprise

It's our sixth Hyundai and like the ones that came before, it's better than the one before. This one had to be AWD and a recent snow storm shows how great it is. And it beats our Sonata 2.0T when it comes to performance on dry pavement. Maybe not quite as fast but more solid, more economical and more comfortable.

Loads of fun, great on gas

The Kona NLine is a beauty of a car, and supports me in my day to day. I have gotten many compliments on the vehicle, and I am quite pleased overall with it. Just that one small noise with the exhaust...would like to know if thats normal or not

Hyundai good

Exterior looks good. Interior looks bland. Acceleration is great. Handling in the snow is a little lack-luster. Doesn't take very long for the interior to get warm on a cold day. Rear camera is clear and visible.

Kona N is high energy fun

The Kona N is nothing like the normal Kona, except in general body appearance. The ride, handling, noise level, trim level, power, braking, etc. are all highly different. The N is so much faster, more powerful, better handling. The fun level is very high. The normal Kona is just a nice little car. However, the suspension in the N is very stiff and the ride is extremely noisy on anything except smooth roads. On smooth roads it is great. Right now, the trade is super fun Vs Noise.

Sporty Performance Mini KONA N.

I enjoy not paying for overpriced brands. Hyundai service is responsive and have a great warranty. This is a sports platform though, so get ready for road debris noise and some jolts along the way. The eco/normal mode is appreciated to soften the ride with city driving because potholes are ridiculous everywhere. Spacious on the inside with very nice styling and fun extras for N-mode.

Great little vehicle but some features are a challenge

The Kona N-Line is a sharp fun vehicle. Great gas mileage and handling with a powerful 1.8L Turbo engine. Maybe slightly overpriced vs some competitor vehicles in same category but great buy. Some features are difficult to find when using the displays but overall ease of use is great with the large display.

Auto enthusiast with 40 years dealership and professional racing experience

The Kona N fit my needs exactly as a fun to drive, relatively economical, daily use vehicle. It has not disappointed. Out of 4 cars, it is my go-to vehicle for most of my travels. I especially like the versatility of the drive modes. I leave it in normal or eco mode when in my own neighborhood to keep things quiet, but can turn the Kona into a beast at the push of a button.

The Kona N is small but surprisingly mighty

Hyundai has done a great job at making an exhilarating driving experience in the form of a compact crossover. Great power that’s very likely to put a smile on any drivers face. And it’s practical too.

Great and fun to drive to car at an affordable price

I bought the Limited Trim with all the options added to it. Overall, it is a good car for daily driving and commuting. Even good for short to medium road trips. Lots of great features and at a reasonable price. Very smart safety features to help with driving and reduce stress while on long trips.

Mostly great car

Love the car, only a few issues to knock. Alarm is over sensitive and goes off randomly. Moving from a dead stop makes vehicle lunge a bit. Very comfortable seating and once moving fun to drive. Would recommend if you are looking for good fuel economy at good price with just a bit of storage. Trunk area is okay for one person, not a family car

Decent vehicle for the money

I have only driven the car for less than 1000 miles and have found some minor issues so far. There are blemishes in the paint and one of the brake light lenses has a pinhole flaw. It seems to run well so far and I haven’t had any mechanical issues yet. So far my Kona has a comfortable and quiet ride although it hasn’t been taken on a highway trip.

Great electric car for us seniors who are not too techey

Great replacement for our 2005 Elantra, that we loved but time to go. Very comfortable and my wife loves to be able to raise her seat. The 285 electric range is perfect for us to visit family and return home with no need to charge on the way. The only con is high road noise. The Nexen OEM tires may work ok on a gas Kona, but are too noisy for an electric car, when other Hyundai OEM tires are rated quieter.

Solid SUV!

The Kona is a very solid SUV with a peppy turbo motor coupled to a quick shifting dual clutch transmission, The all wheel drive is worth it's weight in gold here in central NH! Handling and cornering are solid, controlled, and make this little SUV a kick to drive!

Good vehicle

Good vehicle, need a few improvements. NO LED lights for a 2023 Model. Navigation and rear styling can be improved. Fuel milage good. Turbo power low at accelerating. Too many plastics inside. Excellent warranties and maintenance.

A fun car that can compete

This is a very fun car to drive. It is a car you can definitely track and also drive to work. The different modes are nice and switching between them is very easy to do. If you want to save gas there's a mode and if you wanna go fast there's a mode as well

Cool Kona car

Bought this 2023 Kona SEL 2.0 liter as a company vehicle. However, I've really kept this car for my priority mode of transportation. Handles well, many safety features that extend safety during driving and backing. Mileage 32-40. Nice vehicle
