2023 Hyundai KONA consumer reviews

Purchased the car a month ago and it does not disappoint. Has got a kick to it. Brakes are a little choppy but reliable. Inside is comfortable. Enough room and yet compact.

The Kona is a nice car, has plenty of power for the 2.0L engine, as long its in sport mode. Gas economy is ok at around 28mpg. Sun roof is great. All the auto features are nice, but I wish that the "Turn the motor Off" at a stop was off by default. I don't like the jerk feel it does when it turns itself back on after you release the brake, I tend to manually turn that feature off, if I remember to press the manual override button. Plenty of room for normal size people. if your pushing 6 foot I wouldn't recommend this vehicle, as it would be hard to duck to get in and out of the front seats. I do like the warranty BUT Hyundai hides a few things from you, like the computers are NOT covered by their 5 year, 60k or 10 year 100k warranty only 3 year 36k. I would suggest an extended warranty to cover the 35 computers alone in this vehicle. Also These new cars are all drive by wire. meaning NO cables anymore to throttle, brakes, etc.It is all done by a computer and sensors, keep that in mind. GPS computer is pretty good, map works good. I still like that Hyundai still offers a USB for flash drives with MP3 music, Not everyone wants to use your stupid phone to play music.

I bought the 2023 SEL Kona for my wife. However, she has been traveling for work and I've driven it 4000 miles. I really enjoy the fun little car. Mileage overall 32-40 MPG. Handles/ looks great. Great experience

Excellent experience the sales person Yoel was very nice and helpfull especially to get the tag from my car and to return the rental car i was using my previus car was total after a car accident i would be eternally gratefull for his help and im happy with my new car thank you for providing me with a great sales experience

It feels solid on the road, handles well on turns, and when you close the doors they sound solid - no tin can sound or feel.

I’m not happy with the inconveniences I get from this vehicle. The trunk doesn’t have the the unlock button on the dashboard nor on the key and you must have the key on you to get the trunk open. Vehicle must be turned on if you forget to close a window. I don’t like the automatic stop and go feature. IT’s based on electric. The door unlocks 70% you need the key to unlock or lock. I have lease over 30 years and I have never experienced these inconveniences

This car is awesome in every way. It is the first vehicle I have owned with push button start which is very neat. I am very happy with my purchase.

Very nice car I like the driver assist lane assist blindspot assist etc . Has a nice big screen with great view back up camera . AWD works awesome in the snow also has 4wd lock for worse road condition. Good gas mileage quiet ride and plenty of room for a smaller SUV.

Initially I was super happy with my car, but the infotainment (radio and navigation) system malfunctions on a regular basis. It supposed to be under warranty but no one will do anything to fix it. I've taken it in several times and they just say to reset it. Then two days later all the problems start all over again. I don’t care for the automatic engine shutting off at lights. I know it can be turned off but it needs to be done every time you restart the car. I work in people homes so its constantly a nuisance. On an open highway it would not be annoying, but I work in the city. It a cute car, good gas mileage, holds the road good, but I would like the navigation/radio/infotainment system to function as I was let to believe it would when I bought the car.

I have only had the car for a few weeks. The mileage per gallon right now is about 26. I’m told it will get better. I hope so. It’s a good looking car and the most impressive feature is a message that comes up on the dashboard if you have something on the backseat. The message says check the rear seats. That should be standard on every automobile. The purpose for driving is to run errands and get from place to place. I am the sole driver.
