New 2026 Hyundai
Kona
The Hyundai Kona turns heads with its bold, modern design and distinctive LED light signature. A seamless light bar, wide grille, and sculpted lines give it a confident, athletic presence, while available 19-inch alloy wheels and sleek LED headlights enhance its upscale look. Slightly larger than before, the Kona offers a more spacious stance while remaining easy to maneuver in tight city streets.
Under the hood, the Kona offers two dynamic powertrains to match your driving style. The standard 2.0L Smartstream 4-cylinder engine delivers efficient everyday performance, while the available 1.6L turbocharged engine provides a spirited 190 horsepower for a more responsive drive. Front-wheel drive comes standard, and available all-wheel drive gives you added control and confidence in all conditions. With up to 31 MPG combined, the Kona is as efficient as it is fun to drive.
Step inside to a refined, tech-forward cabin designed around you. A sweeping digital layout features a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, complemented by an available 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster. Premium touches like available heated front seats, ambient lighting, and soft-touch materials elevate comfort, while smart storage and up to 63.7 cubic feet of cargo space make it easy to bring everything along.
Every Kona comes equipped with Hyundai SmartSense, a suite of advanced safety and driver-assistance technologies. Features like Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Blind-Spot Collision Warning, and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist work together to help keep you safe on every drive. With its strong structure, intelligent safety systems, and available adaptive cruise control, the Kona gives you confidence and peace of mind wherever the road leads.
