A big adventure is no small feat. And Kona packs plenty of style and versatility in its compact SUV body. Plus it gives you the confidence to experience more with intelligent safety features that look out for you. So be spontaneous and keep exploring this great, wonderful world. Kona is ready to go. Here’s a nice bonus: For those long, adventurous trips, Driver Attention Warning helps you stay focused on the road by monitoring your driving habits. If it detects drowsy or inattentive driving, it alerts you with a sound cue coupled with a warning message on the instrument panel.
