Great update for 2nd version Kona.
This is my 2nd Kona, my first was a Kona N-Line, my current model is a SEL. I was impressed with the redesign of the Kona, but there are a few issues that I think could use some changes. First off, my model came with a roof rack and crossbars. For several months, I complained about a banging noise during highway driving. I finally realized that the crossbars were the culprit and I removed them and the noise went away. Secondly, after driving my first Kona N-Line with the turbo 1.6 I was disappointed with the 2024 engine in my SEL. It's slow off the line and takes much longer to get up to highway speeds. Don't get me wrong, I love the look and feel of the new model and the wraparound display. The seats are very comfortable and visibility is excellent. I think a boost in horsepower would be a big improvement and if crossbars are included with the roof rack, they need to make sure that wind noise is eliminated. I know from experience that Hyundai takes feedback seriously, and years ago they improved the seating in the Sonata after we said that it needed to be improved. I'm a diehard Hyundai customer and will continue to buy or lease from Hyundai.
