Kona review

Have a serious issue regarding the recall issues for my car. Getting the run around from my local dealership service department. Was told on 2 separate occasions that they needed to check the availability of the recall parts and would get back to me. Both times they have not. I am concerned that I may have an issue that is not corrected and as time passes it will be more difficult for me to be able to have the condition corrected.

Not what I expected

I miss the features of my older car. And this Kona is a 26. Gas mileage is definitely less than advertised. Should have gotten something else.

Great to get around town

Comfortable for being a smaller car. Easy on the gas. Just enough room for 2 people with their wants and needs.

My New 2026 Hyundai Kona SEL Sport FWD

I traded a 2018 Hyundai Kona for this 2026 Hyundai Kona and I Love the 2026 Kona's handling and performance in city and highway driving. The 2026 Kona amount of interior space compared too the 2018 Kona is tremendous. The 2026 Kona has more head room, cargo space and rear passenger leg room. I have never had any problems with the touch screen or programs, I absolutely love all the added driver assist functions, lane assist, brake hold at stop lights, wider views on the backup camera, sport driving mode, front end crash alert, back up crash alert and blind spot warning. The only Complaint I have is my 2026 SEL Sport Model does not come with a cargo cover ? My 2018 came equipped with a Cargo Cover. That,s what I get for assuming the 2026 would come with the solid cargo cover.
