Poor Quality

Car is very uncomfortable to drive, and has very little features for the price. The car shakes when driving on the highway way more than any other car i’ve ever driven.

The car is running reliably.

The car is brand new and running smoothly. It is a bit too early to rate the reliability of the car. It is not a very gas-efficient car, though.

Just OK. Nothing spectacular.

The vehicle is just ok. Nothing spectacular and there is nothing in particular that makes me love it. Even the gas mileage is just ok.

2026 Kona Premium. This car is beautiful and fun to drive.

I loved my previous Kona, but this one is better in almost every way.

New Car With Early Tire Problem

Star Rating: ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ (3/5) Title: Good Car But Tire Issue Happened Too Soôn The car looks nice and drives smoothly, but I was disappointed that a tire issue happened within the first 1–2 weeks of owning a brand new vehicle. I expected better quality and reliability from a new Hyundai. Overall the car is good, but this early tire problem affected my confidence. I hope Hyundai improves quality control and customer support.

Great Car and Price

The car is very classy looking. I like that there is a hatchback and 5 seats in the back. It gets good gas mileage. Very satisfied.

Hyundai Kona

Since brand new, car will keep you stuck a certain speed unless you stomp on the gas pedal. It happens frequently but not all the time. It is a DANGEROUS SITUATION. Waiting time for it to go into for Service has been 3 months! Dealership has been non-responsive.

Great car... lots of style... drives well with comfort.

The car looks great... sure wish there were a "spot" to push over again to shut the trunk... I've been pushing on the license plate. The dashboard icons are pretty clear but, the electronic viewing screen to get an FM station, or my music or to get a driving route is a mystery. And, dangerous to keep poking the screen or the star or modes,etc., while driving. Also, the wire transmission jumps when going slowly starting up.
