What should I look for when buying a used Hyundai Kona?

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with pedestrian and cyclist detection, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Following Assist, Blind-Spot Collision Warning, Rear Cross-traffic Collision Avoidance Assist, and Safe Exit Warning.
• Infotainment: A 12.3-inch central touchscreen infotainment display with wireless Android Auto and wireless Apple CarPlay.
• Fuel efficiency: Fuel economy for the FWD 2.0-litre base engine stands at 7.5 litres per 100 kilometres combined. Opting for AWD sees that number rise by a litre, which is a modest sacrifice for the added capability. Go for the Kona’s turbo engine in N Line trim and the Natural Resources Canada estimate is 9.0 L/100 km combined with standard AWD.

What Hyundai Kona do most buyers choose?

The Hyundai Kona years with the most listings are 2024, 2025, and 2023.

Higher-volume years usually give you more choice, which can make it easier to compare trims, colours, and equipment levels. They also tend to be the years shoppers return to most often because inventory is broad and pricing is easier to shop.

What is the Hyundai Kona's resale value?

Most Kona model years are down by double digits year over year, which creates better opportunities for used buyers. The newer years are also showing smaller declines than the older ones, suggesting stronger pricing on the most recent models. Even so, the overall pattern still favours shoppers looking for value.

The 2024, 2023, and 2022 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
