2018 Hyundai Kona Is The Most Stylish, Functional Compact CUV Ever
The new 2018 Hyundai Kona is headed to a Hyundai dealership near you. Are you ready?
The new Kona crossover vehicle is one of the most unique offerings you’ll find at any Hyundai dealership. The vehicle rides on an all-new CUV platform and is Hyundai’s first B-segment crossover for the U.S. market. The Kona appeals to single drivers with a sense of adventure and growing families alike thanks to its sleek styling and ultra-confident handling across both urban and rural driving environments.
“Our new Kona crossover is a stylish and functional compact CUV, tailored to the needs of customers who pursue active lifestyles of all kinds,” Mike O’Brien, vice president of Product, Corporate and Digital Planning for Hyundai Motor America, said in a recent statement. “We’re confident it will set new standards for its segment, with appealing design, cutting-edge connectivity and class-leading available safety features.”
The Kona immediately captures the imagination with its sculpted, refined exterior design. The vehicle’s distinctive, well-proportioned, dynamic silhouette speaks volumes about its athleticism and endurance. The Kona features a low and wide stance with a long wheelbase and short overhangs to guarantee drivers the sort of sporty handling you’d expect from a Hyundai CUV. The Kona’s exterior design is capped off with futuristic LED detailing, LED headlights and LED Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) to give the car an ambitious, high-tech vibe.
Inside, drivers and passengers will enjoy a spacious, comfortable interior unlike any other available on today’s crossover market.
The Kona delivers unbelievable roominess, plenty of cargo space (over 19 cubic feet of rear cargo volume alone) and the kind of cozy seating you didn’t think you’d ever find outside your living room.
Best of all, the new 2018 Hyundai Kona comes equipped with an audio/navigation display that offers advanced infotainment features via a gorgeous seven-inch touchscreen. The infotainment system also allows families to listen to their favorite tunes through seamless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay syncing.
And, of course, this new Hyundai for sale features a pretty incredible set-up under the hood. The Kona is available with your choice of two gasoline powertrains: A 2.0-liter 4-cylinder Atkinson engine capable of producing 147 horsepower and 132 lb.-ft. of torque or a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder direct-injected, turbocharged Gamma engine which generates 175 horsepower and 195 lb.-ft. of torque. The turbo engine is paired to a seven-speed EcoShift dual-clutch transmission for best-in-class acceleration and efficiency.
But the Kona’s most important capabilities lie in its suite of advanced active safety features, which include Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, High Beam Assist and Driver Attention Warning.
