Hyundai Kona 2024
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Emily Agar had this to say at the time: The Hyundai Kona Premium Extended Range offers a great amount of passenger comfort and space but its ongoing costs are a bit more expensive for the class and its low safety rating is surprising given its strength in that category in the past.

The Hyundai Kona SUV competes with similar models like the Toyota RAV4, Kia Sportage and Subaru Forester in the Under $40k category category.
The 2024 Hyundai Kona carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1600 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Hyundai Kona is also known as the Hyundai Kauai (Portugal) and the Hyundai Encino (China) in markets outside Australia.

Should I buy a 2024 Hyundai Kona Hybrid or a Kia Seltos Sport+?
CarsGuide tested the Kona Hybrid late last year (you can check out the review and video here)Â and came to exactly the same conclusion: That the car was great around the city, but lacked a bit of overtaking oomph at highway speeds.
This will not be a problem for many owners who will possibly never need to overtake on a country road, but for those who do, perhaps there are better choices out there.
Your comparison with the petrol Captiva is a valid one, too. On paper, this car had plenty of urge, but the power was all stacked way up in the higher rev ranges and required some forward planning when overtaking.
