2022 Hyundai Kona Richmond VA

The Kona subcompact SUV has been one of Hyundai's most popular models since its 2018 release. Now in the 2022 model year, the Kona is getting a makeover that enhances its features even more! This small and sporty vehicle has been lengthened a bit, offering increased legroom for the backseat. Its exterior also has a sleek, redesigned look with a new grille design, and improved suspension adds to the Kona's natural agility. The 2022 Kona is available in 4 trim levels, the S, SE, N-Line, and Limited. The Kona N-Line is a new sport-tuned model for 2022, with aerodynamic design features, and N-Line badging inside and out. The Hyundai Kona offers all the style and comfort of an SUV, without the extra bulk! Read on to discover the Kona's new features for 2022.

The 2022 Hyundai Kona seats up to five passengers, with a 60/40 folding backseat. Legroom has been increased in the second row for 2022, and the rear cargo area offers 19.2 cubic feet. The central console is elegant and sleek, with a touchscreen display that seems to float above the dash for an airy feel. In the new N-Line trim, the interior feels distinctly sportier, with metal gas and brake pedals, black sport seats with red stitching, and N-Line badges throughout. Features of the 2022 Hyundai Kona include LED running lights, an 8-inch touchscreen with smartphone integration, and heated side mirrors. Additional premium features include leather interior, heated seats, and a sunroof.

The powertrain options vary among trim levels of the 2022 Hyundai Kona. The base-level option is the 2.0-liter inline-4, offering 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. A continuously variable automatic transmission takes the place of the 6-speed automatic from previous years, which improves the Kona's fuel efficiency. The second option, standard on the N-Line and Limited trims, is the 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-4, producing 195 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. The extra boost of power paired with a  seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission enhances the Kona's performance, and its ability to maneuver around tight corners and weave nimbly in and out of traffic. Front-wheel drive is standard across the board, but all-wheel drive is available for all Kona models, to add that extra grip.

The Hyundai Kona receives an updated safety package for 2022, with more available features than ever before. Some standard safety features include cruise control, and forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking. Additional safety features include blind-spot monitoring, safe exit warning, lane keep assist, drowsy driver detection, and much more. The advanced cruise control feature can even bring the car to a complete stop when necessary. As far as entertainment, the Kona features an infotainment touchscreen of either 8 or 10.25 inches with wireless smartphone integration. Hyundai BlueLink connectivity is also available, which allows you to access a multitude of additional apps.
