6 WORST AND 8 BEST THINGS ABOUT THE 2024 HYUNDAI KONA

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Hyundai Kona represents a significant step up in size and interior refinement for the subcompact SUV segment. Reviewers highlight its class-leading rear seat and trunk space, a modern and well-equipped interior with premium features like cooled seats and ambient lighting, and a comfortable driving experience, especially with the more powerful 1.6L turbo engine. However, the Kona isn't without its drawbacks. Its styling is polarizing, fuel economy is only competitive and not class-leading, and the lack of a hybrid option or all-wheel-drive for the EV model are notable omissions. The absence of a tow rating is also a significant limitation for some buyers. Despite these points, the interior design and feature set are considered major strengths, making it a strong contender, particularly in its higher trims.
