2027 Hyundai Kona: Big Personality in a Compact SUV

The 2027 Hyundai Kona brings a fresh mix of style, versatility, and everyday capability to a compact SUV segment that keeps getting more competitive. A refined cabin, capable engine options, and a full suite of driver assistance technology make this small SUV an easy choice for daily life. At Big Island Hyundai, we think this year’s Hyundai Kona lineup makes a strong case for itself.

Power and Performance

Under the hood, the 2027 Hyundai Kona pairs a standard 2.0-liter engine generating up to 147 horsepower with a smooth Intelligent Variable Transmission for confident daily driving. An available turbocharged engine bumps output to 190 horsepower and pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission and paddle shifters for a sportier feel. Both setups stay composed rather than harsh.

All-wheel drive is available across the lineup for extra grip in a variety of driving conditions. Drive Mode Select™ lets you adjust throttle response and driving characteristics to match the moment, whether you are running errands around town or navigating a rainy morning commute.

Tech and Interior Features

Inside, the 2027 Hyundai Kona centers around a 12.3-inch touchscreen paired with wireless Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® compatibility, so your favorite apps stay within reach. Available Bluelink® connected car technology adds remote start, vehicle status alerts, and over-the-air software updates, while available Wireless Device Charging™ keeps your phone topped off without another cable.

The cargo space is generous for a small new Hyundai SUV, offering 25.5 cubic feet behind the rear seats and 63.7 cubic feet with them folded down, plenty of room for beach gear or road trip supplies. Standard USB-C charging ports front and rear, plus a rearview monitor with parking guidance, round out the everyday convenience.

Safety Features

Every 2027 Hyundai Kona comes backed by the Hyundai SmartSense® suite of active safety technology, standard across the lineup. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist™ and Lane Keeping Assist™ help you react to hazards and stay centered in your lane, while Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist™ and High Beam Assist™ support tight parking lots and nighttime drives. Driver Attention Warning and Safe Exit Warning add further peace of mind on longer trips.
