What's the Difference Between the 2020 Hyundai Kona vs the 2019 Hyundai Kona?

When comparing two different vehicles, buyers around Los Angeles are usually looking at different makes and models of the same or different years. However, sometimes buyers want to look at the same vehicle with notable differences in model years. In comparing the 2020 Hyundai Kona and the 2019 Hyundai Kona, most of the model-specific features remain the same, but there are a number of notable differences.

A Fan Favorite Subcompact Crossover

Fun, quirky and stylish, any model year of the Hyundai Kona is a popular option among consumers around Redondo Beach. While the 2019 Kona introduced an all-electric model and added more standard safety features, the 2020 Kona reshuffled its trim levels and offered an available adaptive cruise control. That said, you can't go wrong with either model year. The Kona features more intuitive technology features than its competition with smartphone integration and a color display flat screen. An easy to navigation infotainment system with intuitive features that are second-nature to Long Beach drivers impress potential buyers of the Hyundai Kona.

Consistently Satisfying Performance

Between the 2020 and 2019 model year of the Hyundai Kona, a pair of capable powertrain options were available to buyers and lessees. The Hyundai Kona can be had with the following options:

• A 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that gets 147 horsepower mated to a six-speed automatic transmission
• 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that gets 175 horsepower mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission

Same Look, Better Safety

As the years pass, Hyundai recommits itself to making every model in its lineup safer to keep up with evolving technology and new industry standards. Both the 2019 and the 2020 Hyundai Kona are well equipped in terms of standard safety features. The main difference is the introduction of adaptive cruise control in the 2020 Hyundai Kona Ultimate trim level. This feature allows the Kona to maintain a fixed distance between you and the vehicle in front of you for safer driving.
