Hyundai Kona N review (inc. 0-100) 2022

[@stephencharles6615]

I have a Kon N and love it. I have problems with my knees and wanted something easy to get in and out. The Kona N does that and still has the handling and performance I want. I do not find the suspension too hard. The suspension has the feel of being planted to the road and I love that.

[@khronin]

I also just got one.I traded a CX-30 turbo for it and like the kona n more.I got lucky cause my CX-30 went up in price and I paid 1k for the taxes and own the Kona N.I also want t vehicle that sits higher because in addition to being easier to drive--the skirts--front bumper etc are way less likely to get scuffed up.Brakes are also prb one of the best i have ever had--and I owned a 2020 Stinger with brembos and another 1k in geomet cross drilled rotors and this bites as hard as those do and similiar to a freind who has a C7 vette with the track package brakes.

[@Reminders4ever]

​@khronin how has the car been for you

[@maxmaxwell2165]

Barely firm enough. Seriously, the firmness is bearable and gives a feeling of plantedness ( is that a word?), which is nice. Had this car for 4 months and enjoying it. Perfect car for near 70 year old :)

[@-TJ-]

That launch control is smooth for a FWD.

[@interizkiller]

Great review Paul. I've had one since October 2021 in basic trim to not wait 6-8 months! Awesome car and I love the exhaust tone! I don't think there is anything on the market at this stage that competes with it on price (T-ROC R yes but with AWD - it'll hit showrooms circa $70k). You be the judge... They've done an incredible job but if there is one thing, I really wished & hoped for a better and softer interior. I like to rest my elbow on the side whilst driving and found the materials way too hard to the point of discomfort for long drives. Hope this will be an improvement in the next gen.

[@CarExpertAus]

Agreed! It’s great fun to drive. I just wish they spent a little more time on the interior.

[@axelfiraxa]

find someone to change the upholstery shouldn't be too complicated and neither would it be expensive I think

[@damienfrizzell9394]

Yes there are 3 that competes with it. they are i30n i20n and i30 sedan n. All of them are either more comfortable, more roomy, faster, have better tech and drive better with better interior or a mixture of all the above.

[@interizkiller]

​@@damienfrizzell9394 Think of 'compete' in a broader sense - what other car brands are offering in the small SUV space. Sensible buyers will not cross shop between the N range but with other brands. Make your mind up on the kind of vehicle you find suitable for your circumstance and see what the market offers.

[@damienfrizzell9394]

@@interizkiller the way I see it there is nothing a small SUV can offer that any other shape car can't already do . all this model does it take all of the dimensional and drivability of the above parameters and lessen them.

[@Mitchhemming]

Have been watching a few videos presented by Paul lately and I have to say there is something refreshing about them. They’re straight to the point, cover all the little things a potential buyer wants to see and above all aren’t annoying to watch & listen to! (some YT channels are just painful to watch lol) One thing I would love to see is testing this feature: Does holding down the lock and unlock button on the key, open and close the windows! Living in hot QLD it’s such an underrated feature and something I wish all cars had!

[@tepidtuna7450]

My sister just bought one. She's waiting eagerly for it. She was totally blown away by it on the test drive and couldn't stop raving on. 🙂 When you consider she has two kids that have left the nest, then you know it has brought back her youthful exuberance. Happy for her.

Hey Paul is this harder riding in comfort than the I 30 N? My wife has a 2018 Cerato GT which is a great car but WAY WAY to firm it's ridiculous ..

[@snehaldasari7528]

As an AU i30N (PDe.3, so pre-facelift) owner, I will disagree with Paul's comments about remaining on the Pirelli P-Zero HNs that come with the car. They have several faults which, depending on where you're located, can be quite frustrating. 1) In cold weather (10c or so), the tyres take a long time to warm up and you experience the front end chattering a fair bit as you turn - especially at full lock 2) In cold weather (10-15c) when wet, these tyres are not at all confidence inspiring - they wont give up grip once warmed up, but getting them warmed up and their feel actually isnt great 3) The tyres are not suited for Australian coarse bitumen roads - thats a lot of the tyre noise drone that Paul experiences in the on-road test 4) They are expensive (see below) I recently had to prematurely replace my Pirellis (sub-10k) due to sidewall damage, I switched across to Michelin Pilot Sport 4S and: - The Pirellis were more expensive, by $50/tyre, than the Michelins - The Michelins are a step higher, in terms of absolute performance, than the Pirellis (the HNs, as far as I know, are based on the PZ4s and not the Corsa - the Corsa series being the competitor to the PS4S) - The Michelins are a fair step more compliant than the Pirellis - The Michelins are quieter (I've done a trip from MEL -> ADL -> MEL twice, one on each set of tyres and the Pirellis resulted in about 4-5 dB extra in cabin compared to the Michelins. I will admit it wasn't entirely scientific as the phone wasn't elevated and did sit on the passenger seat so it moving around does result in variance in measurements) Here's the kicker though, the i30N Sedan ships with the Michelin PS4S by default.

[@CarExpertAus]

Thanks for the feedback! Will be keen to try the Michelins on the sedan.

I am coming from the2021 Hyundia VelosterN DCT and I am loving the Kona N . The reason why I made the move to the KonaN was the VN cause my old bones to hurt crawling in and out. The Kona N is much more comfortable and I also am pleased with the ride height. I have a property that is rural and I was always wondering if I could damage the VelosterN when I drove it on the dirt road ( high center with grass ). I have one wish that I could have got it with the heads up display and power folding mirrors. Okay I guess it is two wishes.

I like it. I like it a lot. The ONLY Hyundai I would even consider. Criticisms of it not being and AWD SUV : In my eyes it is is the modern alternative to the old school tiny Hot Hatches. +Plus N Premium model available with a moonroof (A big UP on any other Hyundai N model!) Its got the i30N engine, and its not dragging much more weight than the i30N, (If it was AWD it would be dragging too much fat) It has sophisticated fully independent suspension all round. So a big UP on the i20N with a t-beam bouncing around in its back!

True!

@@user-vk4vd7vr5t Maybe if they also put the 2.0L from the i30N in the i20N! Instead of that ancient 1.6 T Gamma engine.

The existing Veloster Hatch has a proper multi-link rear end, yet is as cheap as chips, cheaper than chips, since they are running out this (2 doors on kerbside) specific Australian body RHD. We should have got the Veloster N, but the South Koreans refused to make its quirky 3dr body for the Australian market. A Veloster N would have sold like HOT cakes in Australia. The new i20N is just a cheap and nasty super mini hatch, with a gutless uninspiring 1.6. Hell we don't even get the full i20 lineup as the South Koreans think this car doesn't sell here anyway! The Veloster sold like wildfire in Australia!

[@Mexxx65]

So Hyundai Australia are doing run-out specials on them right now, and a true bargain with the latest models sophisticated fully independent suspension. Hyundai are still making the Veloster N for LHD markets, as well even Hyundai noticed that this car was selling like hot cakes, most likely because of its gutsy 2.0L Turbo from the i30N. As far as the diminutive i20N hatch you keep raving on and on about. Polo GTi's, Fiesta ST's and other super-mini hot hatches have never sold well in Australia (Hyundai know this).

There is almost no difference in interior space between the i30 and the kona. In terms of elevated viewing I would hazzard a guess that the kona on it's lowest seat height is about the same as the i30 at it's highest, if you're a taller driver this might be an issue but really save yourself the 6K and get an i30 -cars which make noise like this won't be around for much longer, enjoy them while you can

I agree with most of what you say bar the tyres and suspension. The P Zeros are bloody awful particularly when manoeuvering at low speed, they judder and bounce like hell. The suspension is stiffer than 'normal' but no worse than my MX5 NC (Miata). I noticed a few differences between our models, mine has heads up display and electric front seats as well as being suede/alcantara so i think we get the the better deal here in the UK.
