Review

The model

Read full review

The hybrid version has low CO2 emissions on its side, but otherwise the Kona is outclassed by the many other small SUVs available to choose from at this price. The Ford Puma is more fun, the T-Roc more comfortable and the Skoda Kamiq more practical.

The trim

See full equipment

Only worth consider if you've fallen in love with the more aggressive, sportier styling. Otherwise cheaper SE Connect trim makes more sense.

The engine

See full engine specs

The cheapest way into a Kona doesn't get you blistering performance. Acceleration stops short of being frustratingly sluggish, but 0-62mph in 11.9sec isn't great for a modern small SUV.
