- Hyundai has released pricing for the new 2024 Kona, which starts at $25,435.
- Prices are up significantly for the turbocharged N Line and Limited models, which now start at $31,985 and $32,985.
- There’s also a Kona Electric, but we don’t know how much it will cost yet.
The new 2024 Hyundai Kona is bigger than its predecessor, and so is its starting price. The new model starts nearly $2000 higher than before, with the base SE coming in at $25,435, a $1960 increase over the smaller 2023 Kona. Hyundai says the 2024 model will arrive at US dealerships this summer; The Kona Electric, also redesigned for 2024, will arrive later in the fall and we don’t yet have a price for the EV.
The SE and $26,785 SEL models both come with a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter inline-four that produces 147 horsepower and is paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission. There’s a bigger price increase for the top trim levels, the N Line and Limited, which come with a more powerful 190-hp turbocharged 1.6-liter inline-four engine. The N Line is priced at $31,985, a $2800 increase over last year, and the Limited starts at $32,985, a $2700 increase from last year. The turbo model swaps the previous seven-speed dual-clutch automatic for a traditional torque-converter eight-speed automatic.
Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is a $1500 option across the board. As before, the FWD model has a torsion beam rear suspension while the AWD model has an independent multi-link setup.
The only notable optional package is the $2200 convenience package available for the SEL that adds features including a digital gauge cluster, heated front seats, wireless charging, a power driver’s seat and several driver assistance systems. There are also some extra-cost paint options including a $450 two-tone color scheme for the N Line available in red, white or gray with a black roof.
We’ve yet to drive the new 2024 Kona to see how it stacks up against the old model from behind, but stay tuned for our review soon.
