Hyundai gives you more accessories in their vehicles for way less money than other popular vehicle manufacturers.

Excellent Review!! I have a Kona 1.6 Turbo. I cannot believe that this turbo uses regular fuel, has outstanding power and remarkable gas mileage. An incredible vehicle for the money...

Boy have the reviews and comments changed for this car in the past 2 years. For whatever reason it's no longer "polarizing". Love my Kona turbo, still looks and runs like new.

Good review. The Kona is overall well rounded. The only thing I would change is the interior. I'd make it more interesting.

31 mpg is damn nice! Personally I like all the lights up front. The back lights are awesome! I think all cars should have separate turn signals. This one isolates the yellow signal in its own pod! Love it! If I was in the market I’d have one. 👍👍
@AutoAcademics4 жыл бұрын
It's a really nice car, Torsee. We think the lights up front look good, too. And the fact that the engine makes good power AND still gets over 30 mpg is nice, too. Thanks for watching!

Great Review. This is a nice small CUV but the platform mate Kia Seltos is more appealing in my opinion
@AutoAcademics4 жыл бұрын
Thanks, canonlybeme4life. There's the Hyundai Venue that is a direct platform mate, as well. While we didn't get an invite to either of those launches, hopefully we'll be able to check those out soon. As always, thanks for watching!

So do you recommend AWD or FWD for living in Michigan? AWD will cost me $1,000 & decrease mpg by 2 but is it worth it for the few times you actually need it? Thank you!
@AutoAcademics3 жыл бұрын
As long as the additional cost doesn't add a significant burden, we'd recommend getting AWD if you live in Michigan, Cindy Keselowski. The additional traction and peace of mind in poor weather would be worth it in our collective opinions. But ultimately, that's a decision you'd have to make, based upon your personal driving needs and how well/quickly your local municipality handles the snow. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

My son has one down under, however we do get a spare [usless really, tyre] Fortunately his has key start and 16 inch wheels, I have no time for pose value larger rims, and these potential problem making push button starts, Also his is the base naturally aspirated 2 litre engine . Not keen on tiny engines with turbo, his also has the 6 speed Torque converter trans not one of the fiddly DCT trans,. My main beef is the low front seats unlike the Tucson, When I get into one of these I want to sit UP not at sedan height. Otherwise Fantastic vehicle to drive. Adaptive cruise should be fitted, I think DAB came on the next model.

Love it! So cool! Especially the Lime Green! BUT it's small in the back and im 30 and looking at having kids someday in the next 8 years that it's going to take me to finance or lease to own this thing. Going w a certified pre owned 2016-2018 Toyota Rav4 since they got 0% interest no payments 90 days right now with 0 down... Can't beat that.

The blue interior lights are very attractive in this Hyundai generation. I miss that in the VW line up. But Hyundai is FAR superior in reliability, so it's a No Brainer.

Between a ultimate Kona and Tucson what would your pick be in terms of value for money and the whole package?
@AutoAcademics4 жыл бұрын
It truly depends upon your needs, Crusader Light. The Tucson has more space so it might be more practical for some, but we like how the Kona drives better. That may not help much, but it's about all we've got. LOL. Thanks for watching!

@AutoAcademics4 жыл бұрын
Manufacturers tune their engines for different purposes, guildo comeau. Since the Elantra Sport is a sporty car, Hyundai reserved some extra power for that car. The average Kona buyer won't mind or even care, yet the Elantra Sport buyer will love the extra power, plus it allows that car to be more competitive on paper when compared to other sporty cars in its class. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
