Meet the All-New 2026 Hyundai Kona At Wheaton Hyundai!
The 2026 Hyundai Kona is a small SUV that feels big in every way. It brings fresh energy to the road with its stylish design, smooth handling, and smart technology. It’s the kind of vehicle that fits right into life in Nanaimo, BC—easy to drive around town, yet strong enough for longer island trips. With the Kona, Hyundai has made comfort, efficiency, and fun all come together perfectly.
Stylish Movement With a Powerful Engine
The 2026 Kona delivers a choice of two engines, each tuned to suit different driving styles. The standard 2.0-litre MPI 4-cylinder engine makes 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque, giving the Kona a calm and confident feel on city streets. Those looking for more excitement can go for the available 1.6-litre turbocharged engine with 190 horsepower, offering faster response and a lively ride. The Kona stays fuel-efficient with an average of 7.5 L/100 km combined, making it ideal for everyday use. Whether it’s a quick drive to work or a weekend along the coastal roads, it performs beautifully while staying easy on fuel.
Room for Life’s Little Adventures
Inside the Kona, everything feels thoughtfully designed. It seats up to five people, and every passenger gets a sense of space and comfort. The seats are well-cushioned, with options for soft cloth or upgraded leatherette upholstery. Cargo room is generous, with 723 litres available when the rear seats are up and an impressive 1,803 litres when they’re folded down. That means there’s plenty of space for groceries, luggage, or even a few surfboards for a beach day in Nanaimo. The Kona manages to stay compact on the outside but roomy on the inside, giving drivers the best of both worlds.
Smart Inside, Fun to Drive
Hyundai has packed the 2026 Kona with modern technology that makes every drive smoother and more enjoyable. The large 12.3-inch touchscreen stands out as the centrepiece of the dashboard, offering quick access to media, maps, and settings. The AM/FM/XM/MP3 audio system with six speakers fills the cabin with clear, balanced sound. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, and the wireless charging pad keeps phones powered up without any cords. Heated front seats, ventilated seating options, and a heated steering wheel make winter mornings a little warmer. The fog lights, keyless entry, keyless ignition, and power door locks all add convenience to everyday driving. Everything feels easy to use and nicely put together, making the Kona’s interior a pleasant space to be in.
Designed to Protect Every Moment
The 2026 Hyundai Kona comes equipped with thoughtful safety systems that quietly work in the background to keep everyone protected. It features Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, which can detect pedestrians and cyclists, and Lane Keeping Assist that helps the vehicle stay centred on the road. Blind-Spot Collision Warning and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist make parking lots and lane changes safer. The Driver Attention Warning helps detect signs of fatigue, while High Beam Assist automatically adjusts the lights for better visibility at night. On higher trims, drivers can enjoy a Surround View Monitor and Parking Distance Warning, giving extra confidence in tight spots. All these features come together to create a sense of calm and control behind the wheel.
