It's not easy to drive through a segment as busy as small diesel SUVs, but the Hyundai Kona has a lot of tricks up its sleeve. To begin with, this is one of the few crossovers that is comfortable and fun to ride. Weakness? Delivery at low rpm of the 1.6 CRDi turbo diesel engine, which affects recuperation and consumption.

La Hyundai Kona managed to stand out in a very crowded segment such as small SUV: merit design and content.

city

In city la Hyundai Kona can count on a good answer from suspensions on pits and on cobblestones but lack of body recoil at low revs engine 1.6 turbodiesel forces you to use the gearbox too often.

In parking spaces, limited rear visibility due to large pillars and a not very wide rear window is compensated by the presence parktronic и television camera rear. The wheel arches and gray side bumper strip are not made of raw plastic, but in the event of a "touch" when maneuvering, they are less of a concern than the corresponding bumper.

Outside the city

La Hyundai Kona the subject of our road test is one of the smallest SUV more agile when cornering: glued to the asphalt, thanks to its good tuning, it offers attractive behavior. IN Speed the six-speed manual has a convenient lever when feeding steering (very sensitive in normal driving) I would like more rigidity at high speeds.

Le performance? In line with what the competitions offer (max speed 193 km/h and 11 seconds on "0-100"). The 1.6 diesel engine - lively correct (as long as you downshift, given the not exceptional recovery) but not very supple below 2.000 rpm - behaves opposite to the 1.0 three-cylinder petrol engine (not very lively, but in can offer a powerful boost any mode).

шосе

Comfortable in grooves, quiet, stable when changing direction at high speeds and with a powerful braking system that guarantees a high level of perceived safety: driving Hyundai Kona in motorway a pleasure, it looks like a car of the highest category.

However, not so convincingautonomy: The Asian manufacturer claims a mileage of 1.020 km, but only with a skillful driving style can you stay above 800 m above sea level. engine at 130 km / h, it also “spins” a little (2.500 rpm): many rivals are content to stop at around 2.000.

Life on board

Don't be fooled design original and with a long hood: despite not overstated external dimensions (length 4,17 meters), Hyundai Kona offers plenty of legroom for rear passengers and trunk large (361 liters, which becomes 1.143 when the rear seats are folded).

Dashboard - ergonomic and complemented by one of the systems infotainment more intuitive on the market - it's built with care (great build, good materials) and the quality of the finish is almost more noticeable in the edge details than in the areas visible to passengers.
