The Kona represents the automaker\u2019s first foray into the world of compact crossovers and the car\u2019s innovative engineering is truly something to behold.<\/p>\n<p>The new Hyundai Kona will be available at Hyundai dealerships by early 2018 as an alternative to mid-size SUVs like Hyundai\u2019s popular Tucson, Santa Fe and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rosenhyundai.com\/all-inventory\/index.htm?search=2018+Santa+Fe+Sport&amp;dl.custom.form.id=&amp;dl.element=BUTTON+Search&amp;dl.formElapsedTime=6054&amp;dl.formTrackingId=INVENTORY_SEARCH&amp;dl.isModal=&amp;dl.params=&amp;dl.widgetName=\">Santa Fe Sport models<\/a>. The Kona was designed to compete with those vehicles (and similar models by rival automakers) by appealing to younger drivers who tend to be more conscious of vehicle efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur new Kona crossover is a stylish and functional compact CUV, tailored to the needs of customers who pursue active lifestyles of all kinds,\u201d Mike O\u2019Brien, vice president of Product, Corporate and Digital Planning for Hyundai Motor America, said in a recent statement. \u201cWe\u2019re confident it will set new standards for its segment, with appealing design, cutting-edge connectivity and class-leading available safety features.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When O\u2019Brien describes the Kona as \u201cnew,\u201d he\u2019s not kidding around. The four-door Kona is built on an entirely new platform and features a never-before-seen exterior design that Hyundai calls \u201cmasculine protective armor\u201d to create a style that\u2019s being described as voluminous and aggressive. The vehicle\u2019s tough looks, Hyundai says, make it perfect for \u201ca variety of urban and adventure-oriented driving environments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Kona\u2019s bold attitude is immediately visible thanks to details like an optional color-contrasting roof, LED headlights and spectacular color options like Sonic Silver, Lime Twist, Pulse Red and Thunder Gray. The Kona\u2019s cascading front grille features a sporty mesh pattern and is flanked by flared, wing-like fenders for a dominant, intense look. There\u2019s no denying that the Kona has character.<\/p>\n<p>Inside, the Kona is spacious, stylish and super comfortable. The vehicle\u2019s modernist interior is accented with sleek details and top-notch tech features. An advanced infotainment system is accessible via a floating seven-inch touchscreen with integrated Android Auto and Apple CarPlay capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, the new Hyundai Kona features a range of powerful and efficient powertrains just like any other Hyundai car. The vehicle is offered with a choice of two gas powertrains: A 2.0-liter 4-cylinder Atkinson engine capable of generating 147 horsepower at 6200 rpm and 132 lb.-ft. of torque, or a Gamma 1.6-liter 4-cylinder direct-injected turbocharged engine generating 175 horsepower at 5500 rpm and 195 lb.-ft. of torque. Either option offers exactly the sort of experience you\u2019d come to expect from a rugged, aggressive-looking vehicle like the Kona.<\/p>\n<p>The new Kona is also slated to come with a full range of new safety features. To find out more, give <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rosenhyundai.com\/\">Rosen Hyundai<\/a> a call. We\u2019ll see you in 2018 when this awesome new car will be available to test drive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hyundai dealerships near Algonquin are abuzz with excitement over the arrival of Hyundai\u2019s newest small crossover utility vehicle (or \u201cCUV\u201d): The Hyundai Kona.
