Peak torque delivery starts at only 1,700 rpm and holds through 4,500 rpm, for low-RPM responsiveness in everyday driving conditions.

Currently driving my 2nd Kona, a 2022 Limited FWD. Leased a 2019 prior, and would definitely lease again next year a 2025 Kona Limited. I love the self-park feature! I can see myself freaking out neighbors by standing in the driveway, while the Kona parks itself into the garage. Probably get AWD (still living in NJ) but don't think EV on my horizon at this point. Inside is fantastic! Hope I can afford the payments next year, or else we're looking at buying out my current lease. If dealers keep adding junk fees and markups, I'm done!

I'm getting used to it, but agreed. I wish it was a bit more premium feeling like it should in order to give a good vibe about the vehicle you are about to step into. I wish it was a digital screen key being that it's the top trim, would be nice too if it had some sort of indicator light showing after using remote starter from indoors that the vehicle is indeed on or not.

@thecalendarninja 8 ай бұрын

I am assuming Hyundai is trying to get us to really use the BlueLink app on our phones instead of the key fab, since it shows the details. I guess it does feel a bit more luxurious and premium when someone sees us controlling the car with our phone instead of a key.

@mjc8248 7 ай бұрын

@thecalendarninja Bluelink is pretty much sealed the deal for me. I have an aftermarket solution similar to bluelink in my soul, and it wasn't cheap or as functional as the factory option. The tech is why I got the 24 limited with every option available.
