Redesigning 2024 Hyundai Kona for the Following Year

Some sources say that the 2024 Hyundai Kona would experience big changes. It usually means a redesigned plan on the way. The subcompact SUV is said to undergo significant changes that may change the entire layout and design of the vehicle although the extra details are still unknown. But if you are into the Kona, be prepared for the completely redesigned outcome.

The Exterior Redesigned Update

Hyundai doesn’t seem ready to reveal their next plan. The prototype vehicle has been spotted several times, but the vehicle has always been heavily covered. But from the spy shot pictures, it’s likely that the 2024 Kona will still be coming with the funky lighting – which is also available on the existing model. Big triangular headlights can be found toward the bottom area of the front fascia and there would be a thin light bar that is spotted under the hood directly. The front fascia is definitely getting an update to get 2 air intakes, which would be housed within the triangular element.

The camo is also applicable to the back, but it should still be coming with rounded rear end. The exhaust outlets would be moved to underneath the rear bumper. There have been photos of the Kona EV (designed for 2025 model) which seems to share similar elements to the regular model. However, the EV seems to have bigger front grille and it doesn’t have any opening. You can’t find exhaust outlet on the back. Hopefully, Hyundai is going to update the taillights, make the body lines shaper, design more prominent fenders, and basically create a better refined look.

Powertrain and Performance

There is no information about the powertrain either, so the best thing that is available about the 2024 Hyundai Kona is only predictions. The base trim would likely be coming in four cylinder unit with 2.0 liter capacity that generates 147 hp. This arrangement is underpowered, so many people expect Hyundai would upgrade it. Hopefully, Hyundai would be considering the four cylinder turbo unit with 2.0 liter capacity or the four cylinder unit with 1.6 liter capacity – both are more powerful.

There is an expectation that Kona would get the electric version. This one would also get significant upgrades. The current model is running on a single (electric) motor and a 64 kWh battery pack, generating 201 hp. This SUV is currently able to cover 258 miles, but for the 2024 model, the numbers may add up.

Q and A

Q: When should we expect the Kona to arrive?

A: The vehicle is expected to be ready at dealerships before 2023 ends, so it’s going to be close to the end of the year.

Q: What about the price?

A: The price depends on the redesign work. Because we don’t know the extent of the changes, we can’t really predict the future price for the Kona.

Q: What are the main competitors to Kona?

A: Kona has to face rivalry against other similar subcompact SUVs, such as Toyota Corolla Cross, Nissan Kicks, Chevy Trailblazer, Honda HR-V, and Mazda CX-30. We should hear more about 2024 Hyundai Kona once it is available.
