Hyundai Kona live images surfacing on the internet

MANILA: One of the much-awaited cars from the South Korean automaker, Hyundai has now made its official appearance on the internet. After the release of teaser images from Hyundai, Kona was also spotted on the roads of Madrid by Carscoops ahead of its official debut which is set to happen on June 13. So, now we have a clear idea of the unique design language of the upcoming Kona.

The front of the Kona features the company’s signature cascading grille, twin headlamp setup and LED DRLs positioned just above the headlamps. Hyundai has ditched the conventional design and has come up with something fresh, unique and appealing.

The back is somewhat inspired from the elder sibling, Tucson and reflects the bold styling and twin tail lamp setup. Most of the parts of Kona are borrowed from i20 and i30 with an all-wheel-drive system also on cards.

Considering the power mills of Hyundai Kona, a 1.0-litre and 1.4-litre turbocharged engines are expected. Both these engines are a part of the i20 and i30 lineup.

The cabin details are yet not revealed by Hyundai and according to the manufacturer, it will have premium amenities and conveniences wrapped in luxury. One of the key features will be a heads-up display that will reflect the real-time driving information in both day and night. Once launched, the Hyundai Kona will lock horns against the likes of Renault Captur, Nissan Juke, and the upcoming Volkswagen T-Roc.
