Introduced for the 2018 model year in North America, the 2020 Hyundai Kona is a subcompact SUV that packs a lot of value into an attractive, exciting looking package.
Since the 2020 Kona is still in its first generation, not much has changed over the years. If you are looking for a great, five-passenger subcompact crossover with attractive styling, excellent fuel economy, and an above-average safety rating, check out the 2020 Hyundai Kona.
Hyundai isn’t holding back with the design and execution of the Kona. For decades Hyundai has been trying to prove itself, measured against the likes of Honda and Toyota. With cars like the Sonata and Tucson trying to edge out incredibly tough competition from Japanese models like the Camry or CR-V. Now Hyundai is staking it’s claim and showing what it can really do in a new segment where there is no dominant player.
Until now.
This car should quickly become the standard against which other subcompact crossovers are measured.
The Kona is available with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine or a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine, and a choice between a six-speed automatic a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. An all-wheel-drive platform is optional on all trims. The 2020 Hyundai Kona is also available as an electric vehicle, offering an excellent range for its class. The 2020 Kona manages to capture adequate driving feedback without feeling too sporty.
The 2020 Hyundai Kona is made in South Korea and imported into the United States.
