About the Hyundai Kona
First launched in the UK in 2017, the Hyundai Kona is a practical and affordable compact SUV that’s suited to both urban and rural driving.
The Kona shares much in common with the Kia Niro (Kia is part of the Hyundai Motor Company), with both cars being built on the same platform.
The Hyundai Kona is, however, slightly shorter than the Kia Niro - which might make the Kona more attractive in some ways if you value city nimbleness over larger proportions.
When you lease a Hyundai Kona you’ve got a choice of either a traditional petrol engine or efficient full hybrid (which never needs to be plugged in) while Hyundai also offers the Kona Electric as a separate model.
Why lease the Hyundai Kona?
Futuristic styling meets family-friendly levels of practicality with the Hyundai Kona - and it sits at an attractive price point, too, beginning at around £27,000.
There’s a choice of two different petrol engines; one a 1.0-litre unit with power of up to 115 PS or a larger 1.6-litre mill with up to 150 PS.
The full hybrid is underpinned by a 1.6-litre engine and 1.32 kWh battery, gets power of 141 PS, and can return in excess of 60 miles to the gallon.
All variants are front-wheel drive and you can choose between manual or automatic transmissions.

Hyundai Kona Frequently Asked Questions
The Hyundai Kona is available to lease with either a traditional petrol engine or full hybrid powertrain. The regular petrol engines are either a 1.0-litre unit or a larger and more powerful 1.6-litre mill. The full hybrid powertrain is underpinned by a 1.6-litre engine and small 1.32 kWh battery and is capable of returning in excess of 60 miles to the gallon. It’s a self-charging hybrid so never needs to be plugged in.
If you’re looking to maximise fuel economy, you’ll want to lease the full hybrid Hyundai Kona rather than the regular petrol model, as you can enjoy up to 60 mpg with the hybrid compared to a max of around 48 mpg with the 1.0-litre petrol. The Kona’s CO2 emissions run from a high of 146 g/km with the larger 1.6-litre petrol engine to a low of 107 g/km with the full hybrid.
The Hyundai Kona isn’t a particularly quick car and is better suited to customers looking for comfort and practicality. The full hybrid has power of 141 PS and takes a leisurely 11.2 seconds to accelerate from 0-62mph. The fastest variant is the 1.6-litre petrol Kona with 150 PS, which can sprint from 0-62mph in around 8.9 seconds.
All versions of the Hyundai Kona come with a 466 litre boot which expands to 1,300 litres with the rear seats folded flat. While some rivals, including the Kia Niro, have slightly bigger boots, the Kona’s luggage space is still generous for the class and it can carry more than the Honda HR-V or Skoda Kamiq. Back seat space is impressive, even for taller passengers, and the current Kona’s proportions have been much improved compared with previous generations.
Which model you opt for will depend on how the vehicle is going to be used. But there are a few things to consider. The hybrid version of the Hyundai Kona has a higher asking price than the regular petrol model and will be more expensive to lease. However, potential fuel savings may help to balance out some of that extra cost, particularly if you’re a high mileage motorist.
I had a great experience and good customer service from Garry Rahman, from the moment I enquired for a car quotation to delivery. He is professional, respectful and answered all my questions very patiently. There was no pressure to take a decision in haste which I really liked. He explained all my options clearly and made the entire car buying experience smooth and hassle free. I definitely recommend Garry to anyone who is looking to buy a car. Thank you Garry.
Efficient and professional team
This is the third lease company I’ve used, but in terms of the ordering process, the communication, the documentation and the speed of delivery I would have to place Select first for customer service. I also secured a great price (for a Hyundai Tucson) as well as having the flexibility of not needing to pay a deposit, which made the deal very attractive. However, I’m fully aware that you can’t truly judge a car leasing company until the end of the contract when the car is being returned, as that is what genuinely separates one leasing company from another. On that basis, my rating is based on the relationship to date. The delivery of the car itself was one area where I have experienced a superior service from another lease company. The company in question would deliver their cars on a transporter so the cars were delivered to my house in immaculate condition with something like 20 miles on the clock. The car I received a few days ago was driven about 100 miles to my home, on a rainy day in December, so it was handed over to me dirty. A relatively minor point.
