Even More Fun That I Expected
I replaced a much-loved 2014 Ford Fiesta ST (somewhat modified for autocross) and a 2017 Kia Soul Turbo with a single vehicle, the 2022 Kona N. I have been very pleasantly delighted with this vehicle's capabilities and love its high limits. It is fast, handles exceptionally well, rides well, handles cargo and passengers well, and basically is a blast to drive. The gas mileage is better than I expected, especially on the highway, and the driving modes make it easily adaptable to whatever conditions I encounter. I LOVE the exhaust sound and enjoy scaring the neighbor's cats from time to time with a loud downshift burble or two. There are significant blind spots at the A-pillars, but they just take some getting used to. Ditto for the rear view, though the blind spot monitor helps an lot. the rear window gets dirty easily and the wiper only cleans the center portion, but this is a very minor annoyance. All in all, I have no real complaints about this vehicle. The DCT works as well as any automatic I've ever driven, though I pine for a manual transmission. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone.
