Comfort, style, and good color options

I initially went in looking for a newer version of my aging '09 Elantra Touring. The N Line caught my eye but the cost and the lack of color options available at my dealership led me to the Kona. At first I thought it would be a bit large for me after the Touring but it didn't take long for me to get used to it and start enjoying the extra room and power. Any design concerns I have are small (wireless charging pad is too small to fit a phone with a USB plugged in and the cargo nets behind the front row seats don't fit much in them) The first trip I took in mine was a tri-state capital tour that crossed the Appalachians twice. The handling and power were just what I needed and the cargo space was ample for the two person trip. At one point our GPS took us off the Blue Ridge Parkway onto an overgrown dirt road meant for trucks with tall tires. We spent a solid mile scraping past bushes and pushing through weeds but came out the other side without a scratch. Sound system is feature-rich and the smart driving features come in handy. At this point I don't even notice the lane keep corrections and the forward collision detection has saved me twice. I'm a big fan of Hyundai and the type of vehicles they roll out. I hope this one lasts another 10 years before I approach them again for my next adventure.

Great car but....

The brakes are noisy sometimes. Also the car vibrates and that’s very annoying and can make you nervous. Another reason why I wouldn’t consider getting another Kona is that there is no spare tire. That can be an expensive problem if you get a flat.

This is my 4th Hyundai. All purchased from Chapman Hyundai.( Their sales and service department is the best!) I have loved them all... the Kona is my favorite so far! Love the color! Sporty and fun to drive!

Kona Bona

Excellent car for what you pay- however, not a lot of space. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to buy and not spend all of their money in one shot. But again- remember, not that much room in it.

Great Car

I wish it looked a little less outdoorsy, personally and more cute, but I like everything else about it. I bought the Turbo because it accelerated better than all the other veheciles in it's class. I wanted a small SUV but still needed the power, because I enjoy driving.

Fun Car

Fun to drive. Great gas mileage. Good power with turbo. Warranty is really good. very comfortable to sit in. Infinity Sound system is great! Only issue is road and wind noise. Wish they could have somehow filtered out the noise better. Overall great vehicle.

My 2020 Kona

This vehicle looks pretty decent. It lacks better fuel mileage, acceleration is a bit rough and lacking, too much plastic inside, no truck auto truck pop, the control for AC and radio should be electric in above base model. I have had some issues with the temp control. Engine makes noises sometimes and isn't as quiet as it was when I bought it. All this after already having an engine replacement at 7k. Seats should also be auto with any model above base. Seats also arent very comfortable. Floor mats should be included. Middle console is WAY to small. Interior scratches too easily.

Decent for a small car.

I bought this car hastily. I should have bought the Tuscon Sport like I intended. Kona is on. Just too small. I feel they went cheap on some of the features. Engine was also replaced at 7k. I know better next time.

Kona Review

The Kona is an excellent small SUV. Just perfect for me. Not too big not too small.. I would and have recommended it to others.The red color is off set by black highlights. I've had several compliments on the vehicle and it's outward appearance.

Very pleased with my Kona

I did the research, and bought the Hyundai Kona. I love everything about this model. The ride is comfortable, the safety features are amazing to me. More than once the back up warning has helped me. I said I'd never use heated seats - I do and LOVE them. The blind spot warnings are so helpful and cool. The car sits up to the perfect height. I feel the value of this car is amazing.

Drives well, handles well and has variable driving modes. Looks great andi is easy to drive. The interactive high beam lights are really a nice feature as the automatically dim when another vehicle as approaching in the opposite direction.

2020 Kona

The Kona is a fun car to drive - nimble and surprisingly powerful in Sport Mode. Perfect for around-town errands, I have even moved a Grandmother Clock in the car! This is the 5th Hyundai we have owned and our criteria for purchasing this car and the other four have remained the same - best value and quality for the best price.

great car

I replaced an older Ford Ranger with this Kona. It has exceeded my expectations, the comfort, ride, and performance are similar to much larger vehicles. With the availability of towing a small utility trailer, the Kona meets my needs very well.

Versatility and very comfortable utility crossover

I have the SEL fwd Kona and is very fun to drive easy to maintenance. Plus the Mille per gallons range is amazing for local commute. I don’t had enough time with my Kona yet to provide pros and cons, and barely driving it but a like so far.

I love my Kona!

My Kona is an adventurer's dream come true! It handles well in all weather. Its strong engine allows me to drive with confidence knowing I can get around a semi truck or climb and wind my way up through the mountains. The built-in safety features are effective and helpful as they have saved me from several accidents. The integrated media system is fun! Remote start has been a wonderful time-saving feature this winter.

Love This Car

I admired this make/model for 2 years before I finally bought one and have zero regrets. Love the looks, the features, the comfortable interior and ride! It was the first new vehicle I have ever purchased, although I've had many company lease vehicles that were brand new to me.

not available

the vehicle is reliable and stylish however it is extremely uncomfortable and noisy. The speedometer reads in three places on the dash but none of them match the other, they continually run three to four miles different from one another....

Awesome!

We purchased the Kona after our Sale Specialist Tim Engle of Fred Beans showed and educated us about the vehicle. Our daughter was turning 18 and this would be her first car! After looking at other new and used cars. THIS WAS THE ONE!!! VERY ROOMY!! The Kona offers all comforts and safety for a piece of mind as parents. Sleet design is nice. All the comforts of a SUV without the size!
