Engine Options, AWD and Performance at Altitude
The Kona offers two engines:
- 2.0L four-cylinder (SE, SEL Sport): 147 horsepower with a CVT automatic. Tuned for smooth, efficient daily driving.
- 1.6L turbocharged four-cylinder (SEL Premium, Limited): 190 horsepower with an 8-speed automatic and paddle shifters.
Colorado Springs sits above 6,000 feet. Non-turbo engines lose power in thin air, while a turbocharger helps make up for it. If you often drive Ute Pass to Woodland Park or head into the mountains, test drive the turbo.
HTRAC all-wheel drive is available on every trim. Front-wheel drive delivers the best fuel economy. All-wheel drive delivers more confidence in snow and gravel. If you are shopping for a new Hyundai Kona in Colorado Springs, ask to drive different trim levels. You will feel the difference in a single loop around the Chapel Hills area.
