A 2.0-liter four-cylinder making 147 horsepower and an Intelligent Variable Transmission power the 2027 Hyundai Kona SE, which draws from a 12.4-gallon fuel tank. EPA estimates read 31 mpg combined (28 city, 35 highway) in front-drive form and 27 combined (26 city, 29 highway) with HTRAC. Its 17-inch alloys wear all-season tires.

Cloth seats, six-speaker audio and a color 4.2-inch multi-information display fill out the cabin, which also gets four USB-C ports, a haptic steering wheel that tilts and telescopes, and a 60/40 rear seat that reclines. Push-button start with a proximity key, the Hyundai SmartSense features every trim shares and a temporary spare tire are standard too.

• 2.0-liter IVT powertrain, 147 hp
• 215/60R17 all-season tires
• Six-speaker audio, 12.3-inch touchscreen
• Remote start from the key fob
• SmartSense driver aids, as on every trim

Step up to the 2027 Hyundai Kona SEL Sport and the exterior turns to black accents: 18-inch black-painted alloys, a gloss-black spoiler and heated gloss-black side mirrors. Power still comes from the 2.0-liter and IVT, with the same EPA ratings as the SE, and the trim adds aero wiper blades, privacy glass for the rear windows and black roof rails that Hyundai rates at 220 pounds.

Most of the upgrades land in the cabin. A leather-wrapped steering wheel, wireless device charging and heated front seats lead the list, and dual automatic temperature control with rear air vents is welcome in Central Florida summers. Auto up/down extends to the front passenger window, and LED interior lighting, illuminated vanity mirrors, a folding rear armrest with two cupholders and passenger seat height adjustment round it out.

• 18-inch wheels with a black finish
• Heated front seats plus heated side mirrors
• Dual automatic temperature control, rear A/C vents
• Leather-wrapped wheel and Qi charging pad
• Rear privacy glass, aero wipers, roof rails

Settle into the 2027 Hyundai Kona SEL Premium and the cabin feels a step richer: H-Tex leatherette-trimmed seats, eight-way power adjustment and two-way power lumbar for the driver, soft-touch door panels, a passenger seatback pocket and retractable rotary-style front cupholders. Outside, the SEL Premium moves to 19-inch alloys and silver lower bumper moldings, and its gloss-black heated mirrors gain turn signal indicators.

The bigger change is under the hood. A 190-horsepower turbocharged 1.6-liter with 195 lb-ft replaces the 2.0-liter and drives an eight-speed automatic, shifted by a column-mounted shift-by-wire control or the paddles. Its EPA estimates are 28 mpg combined (26 city, 32 highway) with front-wheel drive and 26 combined (24 city, 29 highway) with HTRAC, and the tank holds 13.2 gallons.

• Turbo four with 195 lb-ft of torque
• Shift-by-wire column control plus paddles
• Wheel size grows to 19 inches
• First trim on the ladder with H-Tex leatherette
• Power lumbar on an eight-way driver’s seat

Bose Premium Audio, eight speakers powered by an external amplifier, comes standard on the 2027 Hyundai Kona Limited, while its 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster gives it two 12.3-inch screens, counting the touchscreen. A heated steering wheel and ventilated front seats handle hot afternoons and cool mornings alike, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror plus user-selectable ambient lighting finish the cabin.

Convenience grows as well: the Limited’s power tilt-and-slide sunroof comes with its own sunshade, the liftgate goes hands-free with auto open, and a fixed cargo cover is included. Parking Distance Warning, Surround View Monitor, Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist-Reverse, Remote Smart Parking Assist and Blind-Spot View Monitor join the driver aids, and body-color heated mirrors with turn signal indicators and a satin-chrome beltline dress the exterior.

• Matching 12.3-inch cluster and touchscreen
• Eight Bose speakers plus external amp
• Seat ventilation and steering-wheel heat
• Power sunroof that tilts and slides
