Thanks for watching! It's lacking in the power department to make it as fun as a GTI. Won't feel as well put together as the GLA. However, better value and more features than the GLA, which is a win in my book. If you're after performance, go for the GTI or wait for the Kona N.
@@ProductReviewCars good call! Thanks for the comparison-- yes I too believe that the Kona N will be a great choice! *just hope they will offer a sunroof*
Stumbled this auto chanel. Was pleased it's based in Australia with a aussie hosting. Great job on the review. On the fuel economy when you were playing with the trip computer had a reading of 12.3L 100km that is thirsty for a compact suv or was it just you were thrashing eff out of it
Thank you! The fuel economy was on the thirsty side for sure. I do have a lead foot, however, if you're driving in the city, you're going to see figures closer to 10L per 100km for the N Line.
I think this offers the best 'value for money' as a compact SUV. I've yet to have a go in an AWD Audi Q2, GLA or X2 - so hard to comment on if they're worth spending the extra money. For less than $50K AUD, it's fair to say that this near the top of the class. - Cameron
@@ProductReviewCars thanks! I just asked because i'm still deciding between this and the new Hyunda i30 sedan N-Line Premium. I hope you can also have a review for that car. :)
@@jaknowbi5800 Totally! I'm reviewing that one in a months time. So stay tuned! Main difference on paper would be the AWD system which the Kona has over the i30 sedan. - Cameron
Looking forward to the Kona N review!!
Cheers! Me too! - Cameron
Thanks for the review! Is the N-Line fun to drive? How does it compare to a GTI? Or even a base mb GLA250?

@@R56Cooper Fingers crossed! Panoramic roof would be far more interesting to be honest.
@@ProductReviewCars totally-- that would be optimum!
what were your thoughts on the Harman Kardon sound system?
Not exactly mind blowing, but a decent step up over the base audio system. Think less distortion and greater clarity.

Nice review. How much US Dollars, do you think the N will cost?
Cheers! Rumours are Aus is looking at prices just above the i30N. So, a guess would be a couple thousand above the Veloster N? - Cameron
Sure, makes sense to me. Thanks!
Its not a filling locking diff. Its a center locking one.
What color is this car?
Colour is called Fiery Red.
@@ProductReviewCars do you think they'll add this color to the 2022 kona n lines cause its not there now. All we have is pulse red in america
It’s red.
Do you think this is the best compact SUV at the moment? Excluding those luxury brands such as Audi, Mercedez, BMW, etc.
