The all-new 2018 Hyundai Kona compact crossover SUV is scheduled to make its global debut on June 13.
 |
| In the past 2 months, Hyundai has started releasing information and teaser images, even providing some news sites with paparazzi-like images showing the complete exterior of the all-new 2018 Hyundai Kona. |
 |
| The Hyundai Kona features a "Cascading" grille design. The Kona's dual headlights are described by Hyundai as improving visibility, with LED daytime running lights located above the LED headlights. The separate design of the lights also creates a distinctive identity for the car. |
 |
| In addition, the Hyundai Kona 2018 also comes with a muscular hood with sporty embossed lines. This design helps emphasize the distinctive and SUV style of the Hyundai Kona 2018. The car has a high chassis and plastic strips surrounding the wheel wells as well as the front/rear bumpers. In addition, the black roof contrasts with the exterior paint color. |
 |
| Meanwhile, behind the slim LED taillights, a rather steep windshield and a true SUV-like underbody panel. Inside, the 2018 Hyundai Kona is equipped with a touchscreen above the central air vents, and a traditional analogue dashboard. |
 |
| There is currently no information about the drive system of the Hyundai Kona 2018. According to some rumors, the Hyundai Kona 2018 will use a 1.0 and 1.4-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder gasoline engine. In addition, there is a 1.6-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder diesel engine. In addition, Hyundai is also developing a fully electric version of the Kona 2018. |
 |
| The engines will be paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic. Front-wheel drive will be standard equipment for this small crossover. Meanwhile, full-time 4-wheel drive is only optional. The Kona will be in a competitive segment with other models such as the Ford Ecosport or Chevrolet Trax... |
 |
| According to the plan, in mid-June, Hyundai will officially launch Kona in Korea. Notably, the Vietnamese representative, Hyundai Thanh Cong, also invited domestic media to Korea to witness the Kona launch ceremony. It is very likely that Hyundai Kona will be brought to Vietnam if it receives positive feedback from the press and customers. |
