The Kona N looks great. I can't wait for them to show up in the US. I may wind up having to get one since many of my friends have the Veloster N, but I want more room than my Scion FRS currently has.
Another home run for Hyundai, with this and the Elantra N on top of the Veloster, Hyundai is going to be a top competitor in the United States markets for sure.
@@AsianPetrolhead there was a rumor when the veloster N pop out on sale that dealerships where asking up the MSRP price. Do you think this might happen with the Kona N?
Wow Charlie looks like you had a lot of fun!! The Hyundai Kona N looks like another winner for the brand. The Hyundai group is doing amazing things . I'm very impressed with their focus on bringing out compelling vehicles .
Nope. The new Kona N Line won’t have all this. Look up other reviews. I’m convinced it won’t be released in the US. I just found out I preordered some pos that isn’t half this.
@@AsianPetrolhead That seems pretty weak to me...it can't handle another 10 horsepower for more than 20 seconds? I mean, 10hp is barely noticeable. It's probably easier to tell since you have to physically trigger it but if it just did it automatically (a couple GM models come to mind) I doubt anyone would even notice.
I took my very tall wife to try out what Hyundai had to offer. She loved both the Veloster (which has far more interior room than you'd expect) and the Kona. So getting a more powerful iteration of the Kona is a good thing, and puts it back on our shortlist for the new vehicle. North American highways need more from an engine, especially in the mountains where we live. You can use vehicles with lower displacement or less horsepower, but you'll be slow, and end up frustrated behind traffic, or the one who frustrates others. This Kona N keeps that from happening.
Test drove the Kona N this afternoon. Getting the ultimate. It’s like driving a Sporty comfortable Santa Fe with better handling. As a dad with 2 kids it’s like the perfect cross between the veloster and the big boy suvs.
i believe im in love with the all white with red emphasizing the sportiness. the spoiler looks menacing and the triangle rain light matches the style. first mod would be wheels and tires, and straight pipe maybe even sway bars if its needed
I have a Veloster N... don’t straight pipe these things they are totally loud enough in N mode and being able to shut them up is super nice. Also wheels and tires kinda *ruin* (but not really) the car. I put Michelin pilot sport 4s tires on mine and they really don’t have the same feel as the pirellis. Cheers!
@@zumezoom9593 I’d feel better with my warrantied parts! You can beat it every day and not have to worry - that’s the appeal of these things at least to me.
I purchased my Sonic Blue Kona N for MSRP from Earnhardt Hyundai in North Scottsdale, AZ, at the end of May 2022. It now has 2112 miles on the odometer, most of which were accumulated on freeways over long distances and substantial changes in elevation. Confession being good for the soul, I must plead guilty to committing the ultimate N Sin: I've been driving the car in "Normal" mode almost exclusively since I bought it, and have only experimented with N mode a time or two. With the Kona N, "Normal" is anything but Granny Mode: The car is just so damn nifty-quick, the handling is confidence-inspiring, and the suspension feels just right. It's immensely satisfying to drive as-is, but it's also reassuring to know it is capable of delivering so much more ... under controlled conditions on the track.
Well, it's a brand new car, you just gotta give it sometime. And after an oil change, you can do all the N mode you want. Thanks ronforemna for giving us update.
@@jaxrages8678 for 1, it's got 2 doors in the back...if you have kids, you know that's invaluable. It's a subcompact crossover suv officially...so yes it is an suv, a small one.
Thanks for showing all the colors my favorite is the new sonic blue. It looks quite capable on the right surface of having a lot of fun. Great review and thanks for showing the extra functionality on the center console display.💯
Hey cool video! I switched from the Kona 1.6 liter to the Kona N 2.0 liter about 1 month ago and can only confirm that there is a huge difference. The car is noticeably better on the road, has noticeably more power and looks sportier inside and out. The comfort seats are also more comfortable, hold you better and are not only heated but also ventilated. In addition, the armrests on the doors are padded and not just made of hard plastic. My recommendation, if Kona then the Kona N or if you want to drive slowly and economically the very small 3 cylinder Kona. The 1.6 liter is not a good idea. It consumes a lot of petrol, but spoils the fun of driving because of the small brakes and poor chassis. I wish you a good trip!
Better make sure its the kona n not the kona n line they got me i was thinkn hole time it was one from video but with a 500 doller chip and blow off valve i got same horse power.
Looks like a fun little car and a great track layout with plenty of undulations. Makes you wonder how they found what looks to be the flattest piece of land in Korea to build the F1 circuit on back in the day.. Looking forward to seeing this when it lands in Australia!
That's the real trick that they've achieved Charlie total fun factor, and I think the rain hates you 😛 but it's good that it was raining as it shows much stronger just how capable the car is even in the wet!
Seeing him have so much fun with the Kona N makes me wish I can enjoy it myself too XD If I didn't purchase a new Hyundai in 2017, I probably would have considered this or the new Tucson. I really want that Tucson.
I didn't notice it until you told me. I guess it's just a habit for me. You can use it with which ever finger you like. Thanks for enjoying the Kona N review.
Great review Charlie!! I could tell you were really having fun.. I agree with many others here, Hyundai will sell plenty of them especially if they're priced right..
I have the Kona 2021 and my wife has the 2022 both have get up and gone speed. Very spacious and superior handling 😁 I have heated seats, and she doesn’t. She has remote start and I don’t. Overall review is 8 1/2 out of 10
I love my veloster turbo ultimate, but I’m really considering trading into one of these thanks to your review. Awesome job! Thanks for reviewing this one :)
Love your review. Can you turn off the popping from the exhaust, but still keep the performance? I think the popping would become very annoying. I’d prefer to have the performance without announcing every time I let off the accelerator.
Looks awesome, but given the Veloster N auto is $34K in US, I doubt the Kona N will be $30K. IF they do meet a $30K price point, they won't be able to make enough to satisfy demand :-)
Thanks for the review. I have a 2018 1.6T AWD Kona and really like it. It’s hard to explain but it feels like whoever designed it was a car enthusiast. No mechanical issues or rattles yet also. The N Kona doesn’t come with AWD but I feel that I don’t need the AWD function since I rarely drive in snow here in Northern California. When the N Kona comes to my local Hyundai dealer I will check it out. It has about 100 more horse power than my Kona and my Kona is already pretty perky.
Yes, a bit more power would be welcomed for this Hyundai Kona N. And here's first drive on the Hyundai Elantra N. ruclips.net/video/FDGFNvQSs4c/видео.html

Very cool car but I can't get used to the split rear lights, all lights should have been in one unit and not the brake/rear light up and the indicators down lower in the bumper.
Hi Asian Petrolhead 👋just wondering about the sunroof in 130n and kona n. What's the difference? To me, the sunroof in kona n seems smaller than i30n. Thanks 😃
@@AsianPetrolhead my pleasure😊. Thanks for the reply 🙏. I've figured it out finally. The sunroof in hyundai i30n is much bigger and better than kona n but you have to pay for it. I've already ordered mine which is Kona n in blue🙂. Can't wait to take it out for a spin😇😊😁😆😄😃😀
The wheelbase is ideal for track use, but an extra 1 inch would make it a monster on the streets. On the track, the transition in the wet was impressive. However, it'll have to be under 3000lb before I take it seriously.
Great review! I don't have the Kona N but I do have the 2022 Kona Preferred and I really like it! Handles well and sometimes I catch myself driving too fast on the highway because it's so smooth!
Doesn't the i30/Elantra GT have a larger cargo space than the Kona? Curious as I have the GT N-Line and am thinking of trading in for this when it hits market.
I struggle with the Sonic Blue. It looks White. I need to see the Sonic Blue next to the Lunar White in order to make up my mind! Great review as always!

I'm excited to test drive this car! I am also waiting for the Kia EV6 GT but might have to lease this first.
Yes, John. Hope you guys get the Kona N soon!
Doesn't the i30/Elantra GT have a larger cargo space than the Kona?
Curious as I have the GT N-Line and am thinking of trading in for this when it hits market.
Well, I will have to double check on that. Thanks for enjoying the Kona N review.
Awesome video 👍🏼
