The 2027 Hyundai KONA continues as a thoughtfully refined, carry-over model that hits the sweet spot for Sioux City shoppers who want big versatility in a right-size SUV. Backed by a proven platform and smart updates to standard and available features, KONA makes everyday driving feel easy, whether you’re merging onto I-29, navigating downtown Sioux City parking, or heading out toward Stone State Park for the weekend. Our local research and customer conversations tell a consistent story: small SUVs win when they deliver confident power choices, intuitive tech that you’ll use every day, generous cargo capacity for active lives, and safety features that don’t require you to climb the trim ladder. The 2027 KONA checks all four boxes with a standard 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, available AWD with generous ground clearance, and Hyundai SmartSense driver assists across the lineup—plus tailored upgrades that let you build your perfect compact SUV.
KONA’s powertrain lineup gives you the final say on how you like to drive. Choose a smooth, efficient 2.0L Atkinson-cycle 4-cylinder paired with an Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT) for a relaxed, fuel-conscious commute. Or select the lively 1.6L Turbo-GDI 4-cylinder matched to an 8-speed automatic for stronger acceleration and passing confidence on Highway 20. Front-wheel drive is standard, and an available Active On-Demand AWD system adds all-surface traction without sacrificing everyday ease. With AWD, KONA swaps in a multi-link rear suspension for additional composure on uneven pavement and gravel county roads, and it adds a Snow mode to the Normal and Sport settings found on Drive Mode Select. Steering is crisp and light thanks to column-mounted motor-driven power steering, and the tight 34.8-foot turning diameter helps you slip into those tighter spots around the Marketplace or Historic Fourth Street. Braking hardware is robust for the class—ventilated front discs up to 12.0 inches, plus standard ABS with EBD—and the body’s high-tensile-steel unibody keeps things solid, quiet, and secure. Whether you’re tackling everyday errands or planning a weekend away, KONA blends agile responses with everyday usability.
Open the door and the 2027 Hyundai KONA feels modern, organized, and intentionally designed. The standard 12.3-inch touchscreen runs an intuitive interface that responds quickly and pairs seamlessly with your phone using wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. From there, the cabin is full of practical upgrades: dual front and dual rear USB-C ports keep devices powered, and available wireless device charging tidies up daily cable clutter. Step up to SEL Premium for H-Tex trimmed seating and power-adjustable driver comfort, or go Limited for ventilated front seats, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and user-selectable Ambient Lighting now focused on the top trim for 2027. The standard dual-level cargo floor and wide hatch opening make loading groceries, strollers, or sports gear simple, and the flat-folding 60/40 rear seat opens up a generous 63.7 cubic feet when you need it. It all adds up to a cabin that’s smart without being complicated—right-sized for Sioux City life.
KONA’s standard safety list is one of the strongest in the small SUV class. Hyundai SmartSense equips every 2027 KONA with Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist that can react to vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists, plus added capability for junction turning and direct oncoming detection. Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Following Assist provide gentle steering support to help keep you centered, while Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist help with those tricky merge and parking-lot moments. Available upgrades include Parking Distance Warning (front, side, and reverse) with contour guidance, a crisp Surround View Monitor for 360-degree visibility, Blind-Spot View Monitor that projects a camera feed into the cluster when signaling, and Remote Smart Parking Assist that can help maneuver KONA into—and out of—tight spaces. From school runs to weekend errands around Sioux City, KONA empowers confident driving with features you’ll use every day.
