What's New for the 2027 Hyundai Kona?
The 2027 Hyundai Kona enters the new model year maintaining its bold styling and adaptable footprint, carrying over with minimal revisions. The primary change across the lineup is that the entry-tier SE trim no longer features engine stop/start technology.
What Are the 2027 Kona Trims & Features?
Hyundai offers the 2027 Kona in four well-equipped trim grades: SE, SEL Sport, SEL Premium, and Limited.
Serving as an accessible and value-packed foundation, the Kona SE comes standard with a vibrant 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen featuring wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto® smartphone integration.
Stepping up to the SEL Sport adds athletic character with 18-inch black alloy wheels and gloss-black exterior highlights. Interior comfort and utility also see notable upgrades, including heated front seats, dual-zone automatic temperature control, and a wireless smartphone charging pad.
Moving up to the SEL Premium trim adds a more potent turbocharged engine and refined cabin appointments, including durable H-Tex seating surfaces, ambient interior lighting, and a power driver's seat with lumbar support.
At the top of the lineup, the luxurious Limited trim offers upscale amenities throughout. Occupants can enjoy an eight-speaker Bose premium audio system, ventilated front seats, a hands-free Smart Liftgate, a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, and a surround-view camera system.

How Much Horsepower Does the 2027 Kona Have?
Standard power for the Kona SE and SEL Sport comes from a 2.0-liter, MPI four-cylinder engine that generates 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque, paired with an Intelligent Variable Transmission to maximize efficiency. Higher trims upgrade to a 1.6-liter, turbocharged GDI four-cylinder engine producing 190 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque, mated to a responsive eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard equipment, while all-wheel drive is available across the entire model lineup.
What Safety Features Does the 2027 Kona Include?
Every Kona comes equipped with the Hyundai SmartSense safety suite, providing an advanced array of driver-assist technologies. Standard confidence-inspiring features include Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection, Blind-Spot Collision Warning, Lane Following Assist, and Driver Attention Warning. For enhanced visibility during lane changes, the top-tier Limited trim includes an innovative Blind-Spot View Monitor.
