Excellent car. My wife and I had a 2021 model and, traded it in yesterday for a brand new kona. The 2026 kona is 1,000 times better than the 2021 model. Handles better, suspension rides smoother, plus the interior is even more comfortable than the 2021 model.…

Amazing car!!!
by Dave on 8/30/2025 6:22:50 PM
I’m surprised by the one Star reviews. This car is great. I have the gas powered cheap version. I was out the door at 24,200$ with maintenance free for 3yrs, and power train warranty for 10yrs. Mine has a sport mode that makes it significantly quicker than the basic mode. I get about 35mpg and so far it’s been a really wonderful vehicle. Don’t overpay or buy the EV version though. This is a good basic car that should last forever. I read some other people’s reviews and they seem made up lol.…

Pleasantly Surprised At The Power .

I'm not sure what those that say the car is way under powered are expecting but I have 0 trouble being onto the interstate , switching lanes , whatever , during rush hour traffic that's going bumper to bumper at 75+mph . From a stand still the 2.0 engine doesn't seem to be the problem but perhaps the CVT or computer as it acts like an older turbo from a stand still . Floor it and the car just kinda goes "what?" for about a second or 2 then takes off like a turtle that needs a nap until reaching about 10mph and then it's like it says "oh , we need to go fast" and accelerates quickly . Anything starting above 20mph I have lots of zip . The interior has been a bit of an adjustment as I came over from a truck so head room and shoulder/back room have been interesting . I have to remember to lower the seat when driving or my head rubs the ceiling slightly and the wrap around, like a hug, bucket seats and my wide shoulders didn't get along for about a month . All the bells and whistles the SEL model included have been fun , for the most part , to learn but the lane keep wants to keep the car a little left of center so I don't use it often . I'm still plenty safe in my lane but prefer just right of center if not center . If I have to gripe about anything so far it's the windshield wipers on the front . Though the car is only a few months old they act like they are years old and dry rotted whenever I have to use them . The standard speakers took a little getting used to but they don't sound half bad . FM radio reception is ok , SiriusXM has nothing of interest to me so I use my phone and Android Auto for the most part . Dual climate control rules! My favorite feature of the car is the headlights . They are very bright without being the least bit uncomfortable to the oncoming traffic unless the high beams are on . Coming from a truck that turned like a school bus to this thing that turns on a dime has been a blast , especially when parking in tight areas . Front wheel drive had also been a new thing to get used to with it being SO MUCH MORE responsive . When I first started looking for a new vehicle anything but Hyundai and Kia was completely off my radar but with so many publications giving this car such accolades and awards it grabbed my attention . The denim pearl blue I ended up purchasing sealed the deal for me .…
