Hyundai announced pricing for the US-spec Kona which is initially available in the ICE-powered Limited and N Line trims, with the entry-level SE set to arrive within the fall of 2023 and the zero-emission Kona Electric in late fall 2023. The cheapest ICE-powered Kona will start from $24,100 plus destination fees.
Both the Limited and the N-Line which are already available to order are generously equipped, coming standard with dual 12.3-inch screens for the digital instrument cluster and the infotainment, heated front seats, 8-way adjustable driver’s seat, 4 x USB ports, wireless charging, dual auto climate control, an 8-speaker Bose Premium Audio system, a power sunroof and plenty of ADAS. The N Line has sporty touches all around the cabin, but the Limited with the light-colored faux leather upholstery adds more standard features including ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, surround view monitor, etc.

The high-spec trims of the Kona look quite different from the outside. They both come standard with 19-inch wheels of different designs shod in 235/45R19 tires. The Limited is distinguished by the plastic cladding and the skid plates, while the N Line gets a sportier body-colored bodykit with dark accents, a large rear spoiler, and dual exhaust pipes on the diffuser.
Multiple Powertrain Options
There is a variety of available engines for the all-new second-generation Hyundai Kona – including two petrol and two electric options – even though North America misses out on the self-charging hybrid that is offered in other markets.
The Kona Limited and N-Line trims come fitted with a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder petrol engine producing 190 hp (142 kW / 193 PS) and 195 lb-ft (265 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to either the front or to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic. The AWD models come standard with independent multi-link rear suspension instead of the torsion beam axle of the FWD equivalents.
The Kona SE and SEL that will reach US dealerships in fall 2023 will come fitted with a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing 147 hp (110 kW / 149 PS) and 132 lb-ft (179 Nm) of torque. This one is exclusively mated to Hyundai’s Smartstream Intelligent Variable Transmission (CVT) and can be combined with both FWD and AWD.

Last but not least, the Kona Electric that will become available in late fall 2023 comes with a single electric motor producing either 133 hp (99 kW / 135 PS) or 201 hp (150 kW / 204 PS), with 188 lb-ft (255 Nm) of torque. The entry-level EV gets a 48.6 kWh battery pack that is good for an estimated range of 197 miles (317 km), while the more potent version upgrades to a larger 64.8 kWh unit offering a longer 260-mile (418 km) range.
The 2024 Hyundai Kona has a larger footprint compared to its predecessor, measuring between 171.3 to 172.6 inches (4,351-4,384 mm) long, 71.9 inches (1,825 mm) wide, and between 62.4 to 63.6 inches (1,585-1,615 mm) tall depending on the trim. The 104.7-inch (2,660 mm) wheelbase is 2.3 inches (58 mm) longer than the previous Kona, resulting in a more spacious cabin.
