The Hyundai Kona took the Canadian automotive industry by storm when it was unveiled in 2018. As the winner of numerous awards since it launched, the new 2022 Hyundai Kona is the compact SUV to buy when you need space but don’t feel like driving a utility vehicle. Improved for this year, the Kona returns with everything that made it successful, but with a more powerful N Line trim as well as redesigned interior.
It’s the perfect size for the city, fun to drive, and incredibly fuel-efficient. It also has a ton of space. There’s really a lot to love about the new 2022 Hyundai Kona.
The 2022 Hyundai Kona stands out in many ways, but it's under the hood that you’ll notice what differentiates it from the rest. Indeed, the new Kona is one of the few sub-compact SUVs to offer two engines.
The first engine offered in the Kona lineup is a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a six-speed automatic, which means you get an SUV that offers more power than the majority of its rivals while being fuel-efficient. Even in the entry-level version, the Kona doesn’t disappoint. It offers different driving modes to make it more dynamic and fuel-efficient, which means it’s possible to change the behaviour of the Kona to suit your needs and tastes.
The other option available in the Kona family is a 1.6-litre turbo four-cylinder engine producing 195 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. Imagine a 195-horsepower turbo engine in such a small vehicle! This engine is offered in the impressive N Line trim that comes with 18-inch wheels, all-wheel drive, and a double exhaust for just $28,099.
The final result is striking and impressive, as the Kona’s turbo engine delivers impressive accelerations that makes overtaking a breeze. In addition, this engine is paired with a seven-speed automatic dual-clutch gearbox that ensures it delivers a performance worthy of a sports car.
In terms of interior space, you get 544 litres out of the gate. Lower the rear seat and you’ll get up to 1,300 litres of cargo space. What’s not to love?
