What's New for the 2027 Hyundai Kona?
The 2027 Hyundai Kona continues into the new model year with its distinctive styling and modern layout intact, carrying over with very few modifications. The notable revision for 2027 is the removal of the automatic engine stop/start system on the baseline SE trim.
What Are the 2027 Kona Trims & Features?
The 2027 Kona lineup is structured across four main trim options: SE, SEL Sport, SEL Premium, and Limited.
Offering a well-rounded set of standard features at an attractive price point, the Kona SE comes equipped with a large 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen display compatible with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto®.
Embracing a bolder, sportier attitude, the SEL Sport features 18-inch black alloy wheels and gloss-black trim details. Passengers benefit from heated front seats and dual-zone automatic climate control, while drivers can take advantage of an integrated wireless smartphone charging station.
The SEL Premium trim delivers improved performance thanks to an upgraded turbocharged engine, complemented by a power driver's seat with lumbar support, ambient interior lighting, and durable H-Tex seating surfaces.
Positioned at the top of the range, the Limited trim delivers refined sophistication. Notable equipment includes ventilated front seating, an immersive eight-speaker Bose premium sound system, a hands-free Smart Liftgate, a fully digital 12.3-inch gauge cluster, and a surround-view camera system.

How Much Horsepower Does the 2027 Kona Have?
Under the hood, the standard Kona features a 2.0-liter MPI four-cylinder engine producing 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque, paired with an Intelligent Variable Transmission that helps maximize fuel efficiency. Those seeking enhanced acceleration can choose higher trims equipped with a 1.6-liter, turbocharged GDI four-cylinder engine delivering 190 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive comes standard, and Hyundai's all-wheel drive is available on all trim grades.
What Safety Features Does the 2027 Kona Include?
Peace of mind comes standard thanks to Hyundai's SmartSense suite of driver-assist technologies. Standard safety highlights include Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection, Driver Attention Warning, Lane Following Assist, and Blind-Spot Collision Warning. The range-topping Limited trim further upgrades driver awareness with an innovative Blind-Spot View Monitor.
