Hyundai has revealed that it will introduce their
new Kona small crossover on June 13. The Korean brand's subcompact SUV, which will put some pressure on the
Nissan Juke and Peugeot 2008, is starting to show some skin in
official material. Not that it matter as our own set of exclusive shots showed
the Kona in its birthday suit.
While its exterior design, highlighted by the twin
headlights that flank the brand's signature grille, and the interior layout
that's similar to other vehicles made by the company, are not a surprise
anymore, there are still no details about its technical specification.
Earlier sources indicated that there
is a good chance that the Kona will use some parts from the i20 and i30, along
with some of their diesel and gasoline engines, which will likely be
complemented by an optional all-wheel drive. Lesser versions will probably get
a manual transmission, while better-equipped models should offer the comfort of
an automatic gearbox.
