The N-Line is an ALL NEW trim for the 2022 Hyundai Kona. On the outside you will find a unique front fascia, rear bumper, wheels and dual tip exhaust. On the inside you will be greeted to the new 10.3in infotainment system, 10.3in digital gauge cluster, and special N appointments. Under the hood is a 1.6L turbocharged inline-4 that pumps out 195HP and is mated to a 7-speed DCT. Is the NEW 2022 Hyundai Kona N-Line worth the price?

Very good review and spot-on. Got mine recently and it is pretty awesome. I test drove the SEL and then the N-Line - no contest. I could not pass it up. So far, it's a great ride.

I drove both the kona N vs N- line and yes there was a difference of 80 hp but the ride is smoother on the N- line and the interior is nicer on the N- line plus an added sunroof not available with the N..Both were awesome..couple of notes to mention.Big difference when u ride in sport mode.steering is tighter and shifts quicker, much more responsive.N-line needs to be driven in sport mode only,in my honest opinion! N is faster but i found the fwd at times pulls in one direction and also i didnt like the options of adjusting the suspension and exhaust and other features on the car.Why u ask ?i The more adjustments u have electronically The more opportunities for something to really go wrong..my opionion is setting the 5k difference in price if u are going to not drive the vehicle everyday for long periods of time then the N may be for u...But if u use the vehicle everyday and have fairly long commute, then the N-line is a much better choice! The N is 22mpg vs 34mpg N-line..I hope this was helpful!

Yes the N-Line should have included the 201hp version of the 1.6T, just like the Elantra N-Line. No other N-Line model in the Hyundai lineup doesn't include increased hp. Especially since the upcoming Elantra N and Kona N are also sharing powertrains. I like the monochrome look of the fender flares, however I feel without the color contrast of the black cladding, it makes the N-Line look a little slab sided. Kind of more like a PT Cruiser or Chevy HHR. I would go Mazda CX-30 Turbo in this class, at least until the N arrives. Re-evaluation will follow. Can't wait for your review. Thanks Queen Lori. 🙂

For rear wipers, it depends on how it looks. Toyota priuses would get a zonk bc it is so ugly. Ford Expedition/Lincoln Navigator would be a zonk because it just doesn’t look right. This one is fine because it is the perfect size and seems to blend in well with the rear window

Looks good but not enough for me to give up my Elantra GT N-Line. I have more room, more power, full leather seats, dual climate control, better suspension tuning and doors panels that are padded. It would be nice to have that 10.25 screen and blind spot monitoring but I’m good with what I have. This is not a true N-Line from Hyundai, much less anything I’d pay nearly 30K for. It’s more of an appearance package. Sad face☹️

@@marykreitz3043 It is the content of the package as a whole which makes it better in the Elantra GT (EGT) N-Line. Since you brought up the six more HP, let’s talk about the torque between the two. The EGT N-Line has peak torque of 195 ft-lbs at between 1500-4500 RPM, whereas the Kona N-Line has it at 4500 RPM. It is the torque that really makes the difference. Also, the Kona weighs more, by about 40-50 pounds. Even if I would have bought the EGT with a 6-speed manual, it still has more power and torque, and 90% of the equipment I’d want in my vehicle. The Kona does NOT come with a panoramic sunroof either. The top of the door panels are padded; something that cannot be said about the Kona. I could go on, but I believe I made a smart choice.

Don't forget that these transmissions adapt to your driving style, so a brand new, will lag, but if you are a sportier driver, the transmission will learn to adapt. My 2020 kona, 1.6T awd, is zippy and no turbo lag, but when bought brand new, it did have turbo lag. Great little suv and prefer the previous model over the current, from cosmetic looks, specially the front looks better with the more aggressive front chin

I don't think Hyundai made the right call dropping the Elantra GT Sport / N-Line in favor of the Kona.. there's a few reasons imo. I daily a GT Sport with the tech package, and this compared to that, they took away too many great features. My GT Sport has a full panoramic sunroof, heated and cooled Nappa leather, wireless charging, all the interior panels are soft touch! No hard plastics besides switch panels. Level 2 autonomous driving, rear ac vents, a great sounding dual exhaust and then on top of all of that they actually tuned the suspension more sporty and upgraded the brakes. And on the GT N-Line they even made it more stiff! Although on that they did take away a few features as well, which is why I went with the Sport. It's just a better sport hatch than this.. it has the same 1.6T and 7spd set up too although a bit more power ( 201hp 195lbs torque ), but it was also offered in manual. And the biggest kicker? It has more cargo space! Yes, a hatch had better interior and cargo space all while having a better handling center of gravity and 0-60 time. It's literally over a second and a half quicker to 60. CUVs are killing our market man it's such a bummer. I would have much rather kept the Elantra GT here cause the i30 update in Europe ( that's what it's called over there ) is so much nicer than this. And to have the i30N over the Kona N. I get it, they can charge more for a CUV and people want them.. but let us performance oriented buyers keep what we like! No one is asking for a hot CUV lol.

Love the Hyundai Cona but if cars were always perfect I think cars were better and have frills for the back seat passengers so cars were solid. I wish Hyundai should build cars with no mistakes just perfection.

I just purchased a Kona NLine just like that one. So far it’s seems pretty good. Stay tuned. One note, my BlueLink isn’t working but they are getting to the bottom of that. It won’t register. Ps: I’m in Canada so don’t know if that makes and difference.

Clever? ..don't know about that.. those cars are all pretty boring and are lacking a fair amount of Zip. 195hp, no cvt and sharper handling and a much better warranty sound good to me.

I’m reserving all Kona judgement and worthiness for the N!! That said .. I don’t know if Albert Biermann is still in at Hyundai/Kia’s performance division but I’m expecting more than the current cut/paste across the N Division product line from him/them .. the N lite’ should still be performance oriented, fun’ish to drive w/a slightly detuned engine … not this half assed appearance package. But the larger market prefers economy to performance so it will sell all day and that’s the bottom line.

i prefer my 2020 kona 1.6L turbo with the front fog lights ( replaced stock bulbs with amber LED s ) . Bet you dealers will do same thing with N that happened to Pallasade and Telluride: sell it only at m.s.r.p. or tack on a extra dealer price ' adjustment'. 😝🙄 even though they say the rear wiper should be 11", a 12" wiper does fit and gives you a much bigger , better view out the rear window. biggest problems with the 2020: no rear a/c outlets, no spare tire, and that it defaults to normal when you shut off/ start the engine , it won't stay in sport mode when you select it. 😤🙄

Makes me wish Honda would go a similar route Stateside with their SUVs and give em some meaningful sporty upgrades engine and looks wise. #RaitisRides #OnThrottle #ToTheDoorPanel #TwinkiesForDays #OnThrottleAgain #LoriGotAngles #CameraQueen #Zonkmeister #OnThrottleAllOverThePlace #IfYoureReadyImReady #Hyundai #Kona #NLine

good review. We need to downsize from a 2018 Tucson into a Kona and seriously thinking about this N line. Agree with a lot of the points here. This will help us decide, for sure

If your Tucson still works fine, don't do it. I mean unless you really need to drive fast for some reason, the Tucson is a much better vehicle in every way. I went from a Rav4 to a Kona and I miss my Rav4 every day. There's next to no room in the Kona except for children. The front seats are okay and the dash is actually very nice, but it ends there. Visibility at night sucks being much lower, and it has one bulb for low/hi, so if it gets dark where you are, you'll need a light bar. The N also has no AWD, so if you have bad weather where you are you won't be driving the N with AWD. The regular Kona does have AWD.

My wife's Kona, 2018 mind you, has terrible frame, axle noise. It's like a tuning fork ringing once you hit a bump. A tank is quieter... hopefully it's improved since.
