At Andy Mohr Hyundai, it’s our goal to match you with the Hyundai model you’ll love driving for years. Continue reading to see which Kona trim levels is the best fit for your lifestyle, and give us a call if you’d like to learn more.
Kona SE: Baseline Amenities
Equipped with a nimble 2.0L Inline 4-cylinder engine that delivers 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque, the Kona SE feels right at home on the open highway or off the beaten path. Plus, with up to an EPA-estimated 27 city/33 highway MPG, traveling long distance is a breeze.¹
Its front-wheel and available all-wheel drivetrain is seamlessly managed via a 6-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC® technology. This advanced transmission allows you to switch into a manual mode on the fly, so you achieve greater control over your shifting.
Additional performance features include Drive Mode Select, which provides drivers with the flexibility to customize the vehicle’s dynamic controls and handling. This results in remarkably accurate steering and a smooth ride, whether traveling at highway speeds or maneuvering through stop-and-go traffic.
Interior Dimensions
Step inside the Kona, and you’ll quickly realize just how spacious a subcompact SUV can be with 113.3 cubic feet of interior volume, and seating for up to five passengers. With as much as 94.1 cubic feet of passenger volume devoted to that interior space, your passengers will have plenty of room to stretch out, especially with the following measurements:
- Front Headroom: 39.6 inches
- Front Legroom: 41.5 inches
- Front Shoulder Room: 55.5 inches
- Front Hip Room: 53.3 inches
- Rear Headroom: 37.8 inches
- Rear Legroom: 34.6 inches
- Rear Shoulder Room: 54.5 inches
- Rear Hip Room: 52.2 inches
Whether out on a solo trip or with a car full of friends, you’ll appreciate the 19.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row. Lower the 60/40 split fold-down and reclining seatback, and that space expands to 45.8 cubic feet, so you can easily pack up everything you need.
Standard Tech Features
The 2021 Kona also features a long list of standard technology features, including:
• Steering-wheel-mounted audio, Bluetooth®, and cruise controls
• Rear View Monitor with parking guidance
• 7-inch color touchscreen display audio system
The Kona SE also comes with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration to keep you fully connected to all your favorite apps and streaming services.
Protection at Every Trim Level
Wherever the road takes you, you’ll be safer, thanks to the following standard technologies:
- Lane Keeping Assist: Warns of unintentional lane drift to help you stay firmly on track.
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist: Alerts when you’re too close to frontal obstacles and applies the brakes to help avoid a collision.
- Driver Attention Warning: Detects drowsy or distracted driving and urges you to take a break.
With these features by your side, you’ll be able to tackle your commute, or head out of town with complete peace of mind that you’ll be better protected at every mile.
Kona SEL: Added Security on the Open Road
The next trim in the lineup, the SEL, features the same performance standards and interior dimensions as the SE, but it has a number of premium interior upgrades, including:
• Heated front seats with three steps
• HD Radio™ with SiriusXM Satellite Radio
• Leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob
There’s also a Proximity Key entry with push button start feature standard with this trim.
The biggest upgrade, though, lies in its active safety technology. You’ll have access to features like Blind-Spot Collision Warning when you have your hands on this trim. This technology will warn you when another vehicle is driving within your blind spot, so you’ll know when it’s safe to change lanes.
Another upgrade with this trim is a standard Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning, which uses your blind spot sensors to detect cars coming from the side while you’re exiting a parking spot. When you’re using this feature, you’ll be able to navigate busy parking lots with less chance of finding yourself in a fender bender.
Kona SEL Plus: Extra Interior Comfort and Entertainment
If you want to run errands around town in total comfort, you’ll love what the 2021 Hyundai Kona SEL Plus has to offer. Up front you’ll find an 8-way power driver’s seat with power lumbar support. Choose from an array of seating positions to find the most comfortable one for you.
As you relax into your front seat, jam out to your favorite tunes or catch up on a news podcast. Whatever you decide to indulge in, the Infinity® Premium Audio with Clari-Fi™ Music Restoration Technology will surround you in quality sound. It places eight high-end speakers around the cabin of your crossover to fully immerse you in your selected entertainment.
In order to keep your cabin less cluttered, this trim also offers a standard built-in wireless device charging feature. Simply set a supported device onto the pad, and it’ll charge automatically. This offers you a convenient place to keep your phone, so you always have a full charge.
Kona Night: A Sportier Drive
As we get to the Kona Night trim, we get ahold of some impressive performance upgrades, such as a standard 1.6L Turbocharged Inline 4-cylinder engine. This athletic powertrain delivers up to 175 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque, while still getting up to an EPA-estimated 28 city/32 highway MPG.¹
To further enhance your performance, the Limited trim also boasts a standard 7-Speed EcoShift® Dual Clutch Transmission. With a dual clutch transmission, you’ll enjoy much smoother shifting that will provide you with the comfortable drive you need for your daily errands.
To top it all off, Night adds on aluminum-alloy sport pedals to help you feel like you’re behind the wheel of a peppy sports car.
Kona Limited: Luxurious Cabin Amenities
Whether you’re heading to the gym, or taking a weekend escape to the beach, you probably want to be treated to a luxurious drive. The Limited trim level adds in refined touches for you to enjoy, such as leather seating surfaces. Standard on this 2021 Hyundai Kona trim is a high-quality set of leather seats that will make you and your passengers feel much more luxurious while you’re out and about.
To make your cabin feel even more comfortable, this trim comes standard with an automatic temperature control function. Instead of having to manually manage your car’s temperature, this system has you simply set your temperature, and then your car will work to maintain it.
Kona Ultimate: Top-of-the-Line Safety Features
At the top of the trim levels sits the Kona Ultimate, which makes some premium changes and additions. This trim comes standard with unique safety features, such as a standard Parking Distance Warning. As you approach an obstacle at a low speed, your car will provide a bell sound that will get faster the closer you approach the object.
This trim also brings convenience features to the table, such as an available Heads-up Display. With this feature, your SUV will display speed information and more right onto your windshield, so you have a convenient place to read important data. This way you won’t have to take your eyes off the road to check your dashboard.
Finally, in order to make night driving easier, this trim features a standard High Beam Assist function. When you have your high beams on and another vehicle is approaching, this system will automatically shut your high beams off. With this, you keep the other driver safe and comfortable, and you don’t have to manually turn your high beams off and back on again.
