Hyundai has revealed specification details for the new Kona crossover, which gains a hefty design overhaul this year
will arrive in March with new technology and ICE, hybrid and EV powertrains to keep it competitive in the saturated crossover market.of 2021, the 2023 Kona features a shark-nose front end adorning a wraparound LED lightbar, or what the Korean firm calls 'Seamless Horizon Lamps'. The forthcoming EV variant will use a visually different pixelated version of this.
The reborn crossover also has a clamshell bonnet, wheelarch cladding and a 19-inch wheel design bespoke to this particular model. EV variants will use a slightly different front bumper with a skid plate in lieu of the usual radiator grille, while combustion and hybrid cars add contrasting black wheel arch cladding. All cars use active air flaps to enhance aerodynamic efficiency.
The hybrid variant pairs the 1.6-litre engine with an electric motor for a combined output of 139bhp and 261lb ft. Kia could not comment on specific details of the electric variant or which powertrains the UK will receive, however we suspect the EV variant will use the same powertrain as the current Kia Niro.
