The Hyundai Kona is routinely rated as a top SUV, and every year it has new additions and improvements. The 2021 model looks especially impressive, particularly in a few key areas.
Power and Performance
The base 2021 Hyundai Kona comes with a 147-horsepower 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine that is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. Upper trims come with a 175-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine that is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
“The Kona delivers agile handling and a surprising amount of fun,” says Car and Driver. The suspension in the Hyundai Kona is fantastic, and no matter how rough the roads around Toms River are, you will always get a smooth ride. Plus, it’s just a blast to drive.
Tech and Safety
Every 2021 Hyundai Kona comes with a very user-friendly infotainment system. A seven-inch touchscreen in standard, but you can upgrade to get an eight-inch variant if you prefer. The system with the bigger screen has built-in navigation that includes real-time traffic updates.
As far as tech goes, Android Auto™, Apple CarPlay™, and Bluetooth® connectivity are standard no matter which trim you go with. Hyundai vehicles are built to be safe, and there are numerous standard features in the 2021 Hyundai Kona as well. These include lane keep assist, automatic emergency braking, and a driver attention monitor.
Leasing a Hyundai Kona
Now that you know how great the 2021 Hyundai Kona is, you may just want to buy it. However, leasing might be your better option. This is because there is no long-term commitment.
When your lease is up, you can just turn your car in. Or, you also have the option to buy it. With a lease, you’re in complete control.
