the International car show awarded the Hyundai Kona as the best new small SUV
« on: January 14, 2019, 09:45:13 pm »
I saw today that the International car show awarded the Hyundai Kona as the best new small compact SUV in the show. It also got a great review from J D Power a few months ago. This is rather impressive, it looks like a fun SUV to drive, especially in the Winter.

Has anyone out there bought one that would give us there option on the Hyundai Kona?  I am rather enthusiastic about it because you can get a turbo version of it, the other small SUVs on the market seem a bit under powered.

All opinions are welcome  :)

Saw it on the news today too and was pleasantly surprised.

I see quite a few of them on the road and they look pretty good in funky colours.

Uh, which international car show ? There's a lot of them.

FWIW, the Volvo XC40 won the European Car of the Year in 2018.

I see a lot of these around. Looks like a hit, at least locally.

I don't mind the look of them really.
