Had mine for 4 weeks now and still ‘running it in’. 520 miles on it and trying my damnedest to keep the revs under 3k. Once I’ve done 1000 miles, I’ll start having fun with it.
It's closer to the T-Roc R than the Puma ST. Then again it slots nicely between the two. More power than the Puma, way cheaper than a R. I'm very happy with my Kona N.
Its a crazy car for sure. I was actually shopping for i30N, but when I drove Kona N - it was clear to me I wanted it more. The duality of the car is so unbelievable just like she described it. Normal small SUV and then with the N button - it is a propper angry racer. Love every minute of behind the wheel of mine.
South African models are specced a little better. All UK specs plus full leather and a sunroof. Dail up your launch control to 3500 rpm, hit NGS and hold on tight. Will do 0-100 kmph in 5.1s. Nice review. Appreciated.
I have seen so many reviews on this Kona N and i must admit after selling my fk2 honda civic type r i miss the hooligan element. and this might be my next test deive the trouble is im coming from a mercedes benz e 350d as in my profile picture, thanks for the upload. love your accent yorkshire lass,
