Thank you for reviewing the mid-range SEL trim level. Most reviews cover only the top trim level available while most buyers may be price shopping and don't want all the top trim equipment, like the turbocharged engine.
Best in this class. Bought my Kona Limited 7 days ago and I'm really happy I did. Tested the rest in class vehicles and this blows them away in performance, features, styling (that is if you're looking for something that doesn't look like you're about to drop the kids off at soccer), warrantee and price!!! This is a mean little SUV in all respects. The dual clutch 7 speed rocks!
Hi! Another Kona owner here. I’ve had mine for a few months and it’s a great car! Getting through the Canadian winter well. Would definitely recommend.
I've watched a lot of different reviews on the Kona and this by far did the best job of stating the differences between the different trim levels. Great job!
Drew, I didn't know Hyundai has a new model to their Line up. I like this compact , great features for the $$ . Another great review, thank you ! Jose P.
Paul Cotton ikr, they are awesome cars but I’m not hearing the best things about the dealers. Hit or miss. The ones in my area get good reviews. Carmax is really good btw
Hahaha! Why does a car with such low horsepower need sport mode? Great review always. I appreciate that you try to keep your reviews around 10 minutes or under. Others seems blather on for over 20 minutes. I ain't got time for that, haha.
Not bad but all that plastic reminds me of 90s budget cars we drove back in the day. Kind of lame that 20 years later the amount of plastic used is the same or even more.
I must say though, it looks very cheaply made. The interior materials look budgety amd the halogen lights and normal bulbs don't help the exterior either.
Considering ford, chevy, and chrysler came to AMERICA DURING THE 1920s, And HYUNDAI came to AMERICE in the 1980s HYUNDAI IS COMPETITIVE ENOUGH,Now THERE IS GENESIS. We have to crawl before we can walk.

I saw the kona for the first time in person this week when I bought my 2018 Hyundai sonata sel. Good looking cuv! Very sporty.

@@jackveech4941 hi! I'm looking at a 2018 Kona, I'm wondering if you still have yours and if you still like it?!
@@sydneybrewer2847 Yeah for sure! I still have it, it’s really great and is holding up well. Nothing has gone wrong, and I don’t have any complaints.
@@jackveech4941 awesome! thanks for getting back to me

I have the KONA LIMITED AWD AND, for me thats enough.

Thanks Jose! :-)
Thanks for this reviewing this trim. I just placed an order after seeing your video.
Congrats! It's an awesome car! 👍
The unit got delivered today. I got the same dark knight color. So excited to try my new gear.
Another good design from Hyundai, my favorite car company.
Christopher Calder same.
What do you drive mate?
Paul Cotton ikr, they are awesome cars but I’m not hearing the best things about the dealers. Hit or miss. The ones in my area get good reviews. Carmax is really good btw
KDMfan 7289 Bad Dealers? is this in the USA?
john brown in my area, they are actually really good dealers, but not everyone has the best luck with them nationwide. And yes, this is in the USA.
The Stright pipes did a hyundai sponsored drag race with this class of vehicle, 2.0 trim was meh but the turbo blew the doors off all other brands.
yea,yea,yea...the 2.0 liter 4cyl is for GRANDPARENTS but, THE 1.6 liter TURBO is the one that KICKS.
I like this Car it's called Hyundai Kona because it's nice👍🚗😎👫👭
wow, thats a good looking exterior. i just hate how the steering wheel looks
Great Review!!
Thanks!
Anyone notice the arrow on the gas icon in the LCD display is pointed the wrong way. The gas door is on the driver side. 😂
Can you do the 2018 VW Golf? TIA
Hahaha! Why does a car with such low horsepower need sport mode? Great review always. I appreciate that you try to keep your reviews around 10 minutes or under. Others seems blather on for over 20 minutes. I ain't got time for that, haha.
Thanks & yea the longer reviews I will typically bail on before they end so I'm with ya there! 😁
Do you still get Pandora in America?, it's now dead down under.
Last time I checked yes 👍
the dual color paint unfortunately is only available on ONE trim level. i find that a bit ridiculous.
Nice video
Thanks, appreciate it!
in Europe we have a 1.0L 3 cylinder turbo
The 1.0 liter is GOOD FOR EFFICIENCY on roads SENIOR CITIZENS TRAVEL but, HERE IN AMERICA THAT ENGINE DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUSTO.
Not bad but all that plastic reminds me of 90s budget cars we drove back in the day. Kind of lame that 20 years later the amount of plastic used is the same or even more.
Looks like they tried to copy the old Jeep Cherokee with the headlights.
Hyundai probably did but, EVERYTHING ELSE IN THIS SUB-COMPACT CLASS is NOT AS QUICK.
I must say though, it looks very cheaply made. The interior materials look budgety amd the halogen lights and normal bulbs don't help the exterior either.
Great, now Hyundai has to throw the whole thing away
Someone has to throw you away too for saying that
Considering ford, chevy, and chrysler came to AMERICA DURING THE 1920s, And HYUNDAI came to AMERICE in the 1980s HYUNDAI IS COMPETITIVE ENOUGH,Now THERE IS GENESIS. We have to crawl before we can walk.
One word: Ewww!
Adem Hasanovic That’s your opinion.
