The 2024 Hyundai Kona is here with a brand new design and more performance and features. The upcoming Kona will offer more refined engine options starting from a 1.6L turbo-four and a 2.0L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder. We assume that the hybrid model will follow after the ICE-powered models. The upcoming Kona will start selling in the global markets later this year and full specifications will follow after the launch.
Specifications: Engine, 0-100 Kph, Top-speed & Performance
The 2024 Hyundai Kona will offer two powertrain options. The base model will pack a 2.0L naturally aspirated inline-four engine that will make 147 horsepower paired with a CVT auto transmission. The sportier N-line model will come with a 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that will make 195 hp and 265 Nm (195 lb-ft) of torque. The N-line Kona will come paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch auto transmission. The base model will be able to accelerate 0-100 kph in under 8 seconds while the performance-spec N-line model will offer an acceleration from 0-100 kph in under 7.0 seconds and will offer a top speed of over 250 km/h.
Hyundai has also revealed a hybrid model that will feature a 1.6L turbo-four hybrid engine that will make 139 hp of power. The 2024 Hyundai Kona will offer a longer wheelbase compared to the current model with 2.3 inches long. The SUV will offer a spacious and roomier cabin with a more minimal design and large cargo space.
