5 reasons to buy the 2024 Hyundai Kona
1. Enjoy modern features
In the 2024 Hyundai Kona, you'll find yourself surrounded by a well-equipped interior, even on the standard trim. On the dashboard, you’ll find an integrated system with two 12.3-inch screens—one is a digital gauge cluster screen, while the other is a center touchscreen to support Bluetooth®, Android Auto™, and Apple CarPlay® connectivity, making your smartphone integration quick and easy. Upgrade to a higher trim (SEL, N-Line, and Limited), and you’ll gain access to additional features like an innovative navigation system, an 8-speaker Bose® audio, Alcantara or leatherette seating, and heated and ventilated front seats.
2. Engaging, responsive drive
Jumping behind the wheel of your 2024 Hyundai Kona, you're in for a treat with its spirited driving experience. Whether you're cruising with the base 147-hp, 2.0L engine or zipping around with the zestier 190-hp, 1.6L turbocharged option, the Kona offers a blend of pep and agility that makes every trip, from mundane commutes to adventurous road trips, genuinely fun. Hyundai dialed in the steering and suspension to give you a ride that's lively yet composed.
3. Sleek, redesigned exterior
The 2024 Hyundai Kona sports a bold and modern exterior that grabs attention. With its sleek lines and dynamic design, the Kona stands out in the compact SUV crowd. The refreshed look includes an eye-catching front grille, a sharp headlight design, and a profile that suggests both sportiness and practicality.
4. Generously sized cargo space
The Kona doesn’t just look good; it’s quite practical, too—especially when it comes to cargo space. Whether you're loading up for a weekend getaway, hauling groceries, or carting around sports equipment for the kids, the Kona's got you covered with room to spare. There’s 25.5 cu-ft behind the back seats, which expands to a substantial 63.7 cu-ft when you fold them down. It's like Hyundai knew we all have stuff—lots of it—and made sure you wouldn't have to play Tetris every time you wanted to pack your car.
5. Comfortable cabin
Open the door to the 2024 Hyundai Kona, and you're welcomed by an interior that feels like it's been tailor-made for comfort. There's plenty of headroom (39.9 inches in the front and 38.3 inches in the rear) and legroom (41.7 inches in the front and 38.2 inches in the rear), so even your tallest friends won't have to duck to fit. It's the kind of space that makes long drives a breeze and short trips even more enjoyable. Hyundai has nailed making a cozy space where you can stretch out a bit and not feel cramped, making every journey just that little bit better.
