The Hyundai Kona ({{langx|ko|현대 코나}}) is a subcompact crossover SUV produced by the South Korean manufacturer Hyundai.{{Cite web|last=Rogers|first=Cameron|date=August 24, 2020|title=Hyundai Kona Prices, Reviews, and Pictures {{!}} Edmunds|url=https://www.edmunds.com/hyundai/kona/|website=Edmunds.com}} The first-generation Kona debuted in June 2017 and the production version was revealed later that year. It is positioned between the Venue or Bayon and the Tucson in Hyundai crossover SUV line-up. The battery electric version called the Kona Electric (or Kona EV) was first launched in South Korea during the first half of 2018 and rolled out gradually worldwide afterwards.

Naming

The Kona is named after the western district of the island of Hawaiʻi.{{Cite news|url=https://motoringjunction.com/car-news/hyundai-kona-creta/ |title=2018 Hyundai Kona Unveiled; Smaller Than Creta |date=2017-06-17|work=Motoring Junction|access-date=2017-06-20|language=en-US}} The company stated the name "reflects the lifestyle of modern customers", in line with its "progressive design" that it adopts.{{Cite web|last=Panait|first=Mircea|date=2017-04-03|title=2018 Hyundai Kona B-SUV Is Named After A Hawaiian District|url=https://www.autoevolution.com/news/2018-hyundai-kona-b-suv-is-named-after-a-hawaiian-district-116631.html|access-date=2020-12-11|website=autoevolution|language=en}} The Kona naming also continues Hyundai's tradition of naming crossover SUV models after famous travel destinations, including the Creta, Santa Fe, Tucson and Veracruz.{{Cite web|title=Hyundai Motor Company Australia {{!}} Hyundai Australia|url=https://www.hyundai.com/au/en/hyundai-info/news/2017/04/hyundai-motor-reveals-kona-as-hawaii-inspired-name-for-new-compact-suv|access-date=2020-12-11|website=www.hyundai.com|language=en}}

The vehicle is marketed in Portugal as the Hyundai Kauai, as Kona is too similar to cona, a slang word for the female genitalia in European Portuguese.{{cite web|title=Hyundai KAUAI |url=https://www.hyundai.pt/automoveis/kauai/ |website= Hyundai.pt |publisher=Hyundai Portugal|access-date=9 January 2018|language=pt}} It's also sold in Iceland where the word kona means woman in Icelandic. Like Kona, Kauai is a place in Hawaii.

In China, the vehicle was sold as the Hyundai Encino.{{cite news|script-title=zh:2017广州车展：北京现代ENCINO正式亮相 |trans-title=2017 Guangzhou Auto Shot: Beijing Hyundai's Encino revealed |url= http://auto.ifeng.com/guonei/20171117/1100887.shtml |access-date=9 January 2018|work=Phoenix Television|date=17 November 2017| language = zh-hans|quote={{lang|zh-hans|北京现代旗下全新小型SUV车型——ENCINO(海外版车型为KONA)正式亮相。}} [Beijing Hyundai's new compact SUV -- Encino (overseas version named Kona) is officially unveiled]}}

For the North American market, the Kona was launched at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November 2017 and was available at Hyundai dealers in the first quarter of 2018 for the 2018 model year.{{Cite web|title=KONA - Hyundai Newsroom|url=https://www.hyundainews.com/en-us/models/hyundai-kona-2018-kona|access-date=2020-12-11|website=www.hyundainews.com}} Engine options offered are 2.0-litre 4-cylinder Atkinson cycle engine capable of {{cvt|147|hp|PS kW|0|abbr=on}} and {{cvt|132|lbft|Nm kgm|abbr=on|sigfig=3}}, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

The Kona is either not sold or only sold in low volumes in markets where the simpler Creta is offered, such as Latin America, India, and Russia.
