Hundai Kona

For the money it is a great little car I just want a car that is reliable and will take me where I want to go when I want to go. Don’t care about luxury. With all the safety features and warning systems I feel very safe in it.

Great car for a new driver

Perfect car for a new driver that has to do highway driving. The safety features are a nice peace of mind for parents of new drivers. The styling also is modern and pleasing to the eye. I would consider this model again

The dealership is very professional. The business and salesman were the best you could expect.

The Kona is an excellent vehicle and gets wonderful gas mileage. Service dept was very good, too. Free oil changes and tire rotation for the first 36,000 miles. Overall, I would say, the dealership was as good as one could find.

Reliable and sporty

I like this car more than the Jeep I owned before it and the Mercedes. It’s sporty and reliable, but feels safe. I would definitely recommend this car to friends and family. It’s a great value for the money.

Best compact suv

Best small compact suv. From appearance, fuel economy, handling and ease of use along with the great Bluelink feature, this car is worth the price. I would definitely buy this vehicle again but I figure my present Kona will last for a long time

Too many issues not worth paid price

Paint issues, engine jumped time and continual excessive oil consumption - company doesn't want to stand behind brand and fix the known issue. Too many return visits to the Dealership costing loss of time and gas $. I will NEVER buy another Hyundai vehicle.

OK but rides a little rough

SO the Prius had lengthened 8 inches which ruled it out for a re-purchase. Found this Kona only 164 inches which is great. Liked the style and performance. Mileage hovers in the high 20s to 30 mpg suburban driving. Rides a little rough but overall has been a good car. The 3 yr maintenance given only provides semi synthetic oil. In Florida we need full synthetic due to the heat, do I use an outside source for this.

Love it, love it and it looks good.

Buy one and experience it for yourself. The look and style has its own identity and looks amazing so much so you won't dare drive around with it dirty. Coupled with a smooth ride and sun roof, I call this Kona my Lexus.

I really like the Kona.

The Kona is a great vehicle , and the turbo is a great engine and fun to drive. I plan to stay with a Kona from now on. I really don’t like being mad to write a certain number of words, and I’m tempted to just delete the entire survey.

Superior in class and price

I am retired and owned over 20 cars in my lifetime ranging from VW Bug to Lexus and Porsche. The Kona is superior in class and price range. Easy driving, economical and fun to drive. Ratings are compared to Lexus.

Excellent

Peppy 1.6L Turbo engine. Nice exterior look except for the wide black trim around the rear wheel wells. Fun to drive. Good gas mileage. Easy to park and manuever in tight spaces. Convenient suv design.

A continued experience with your company

This is the third Hyundai I have driven and my experience with all of the models from the Santa F e to the Kona has been terrific. It is uncommon to find a company whose cars are comfortable, beautifully designed and perform just as expected.

Not holding your end of the warranty on a vehicle

The dealership not wanting to go any further than putting oil in it and telling me to drive it very poor service on your end for a brand new car I like the car very much but I was not about to driving on an expressway and break down in the engine blow up. I really disappointing that Hyundai not go any further.

2021 Kona Limited

As someone who recently invested in a Hyundai Kona, I can attest to its unexpected and satisfying nature. Not only was the vehicle a great value for the investment when compared to other options on the market, but its winter performance has been nothing short of impressive. The computer features and functions included far surpass what one might expect from a vehicle in this price range, rivaling those found in cars that cost two or even three times as much. Overall, the Hyundai Kona proves that sometimes the best purchases are the unexpected ones.

So far so good.

Everything so far good. I had been driving this car for 2 years no.major problem except rear doors sometimes hard to open and close. Had to lubricate the door stoppers and hinges to open and close doors easier.

Love my Kona

I love my Kona. It runs excellent and gets good gas mileage. Has all the features I need and enjoy. I've only had one problem, start button doesn't work most of the time, so I have to put the fob into the button to start the car, but it works than.
