new kona review Page 3

The new Hyundai Kona has gone up a size and down a decibel, which is exactly what your passengers and your chiropractor ordered.

The 2.0-litre with its smooth CVT is fine for school runs, the 1.6‑turbo AWD N Line brings proper shove, and there’s a Hybrid and full Electric if fuel bowsers give you hives.

Cabin tech is on point—big twin screens, useful buttons for the everyday stuff, and safety nannies that mostly mind their business.

Ride is tidy (a tad firm on sporty trims), space and boot are much improved, and refinement finally feels class-above—sensible, sorted and very ready for Aussie roads.
