Reviews SummaryIn its fifth year on the market, the Hyundai Kona gets its first significant refresh, complete with updated exterior styling, enhanced powertrains, and upgraded convenience, connectivity, and safety features. There are also two new sporty variants—the N Line and the Kona N—giving this subcompact SUV’s shoppers legitimate performance options at a budget price. | |
Reviews SummaryThe Hyundai Kona adds a track-capable variant to its 2022 lineup with the new Kona N. With the dynamics of a hot hatch but the practicality of a small crossover, the Kona N is an affordable, high-performance sports SUV that is more fun than is should be. | |
