Pros
Fuel Economy
my wife mainly uses the Kona, and sometimes she has to travel out of town, and I’m amazed at how much fuel is left upon her return!!
Ride and Handling
I like the awd because it make the car feel like it is very powerful, especially on take offs
Technology and Entertainment
I’m liking how our iPhones connect to the entertainment center
Cons
Cabin Noise
a bit noisy, could be the tires or the road
Interior Space
a bit small for me but just fine for my wife

Pros
Fuel Economy
Great gas mileage! I didn’t realize how much gas I was putting into my traverse I commute during rush hour so I get slightly less fuel efficiency but still average 25 mpg in city!
Power
Smooth driving! I like that it has regular mode, sports mode, and I can lock AWD during bad weather conditions! I was worried the smaller engine might cause problems but as long as you’re not a chronic speedster, this car gets up and moves pretty well!
Cargo Space
I’m single and I have no kids, but I’m a family oriented person! I have helped people move and was able to fit lots of items! I’m able to do a big grocery haul, buy a solid wood dresser and load it up. I’ve road tripped out of town about 2 hours away with 3 people and still had plenty of space!
Cons
Seat Comfort
The seats are not horrible but I do use a seat cushion for long drives at times. The center of the seat could use a little extra cushion!
Technology and Entertainment
I rate the technology a 4.5 out of 5 stars! the only thing I don’t like is that the factory hands free tech does not seem to hear me very well when I’m yelling at it. If I ask it to call someone it almost always pulls the wrong name. But utilizing the Apple play, I love it and the hands free works great!
Interior Space
A common thing with the Kona’s is backseat space. If you and your family are on the bigger side (heavyset or over 5’10) it wouldn’t be a car for everyone to ride in. I’m 5’7 and on the heavier side and with my seat position in the drivers side, similar size people cannot fit. This just takes a little rearranging so the smallest person sits behind me, but I can see this being an issue for families or other situations.
