The 2023 Hyundai KONA SUV comes in only 1 body type: SUV. The KONA SUV is available in 4 different trim level options: SE, SEL, N Line and Limited. The SE is the base trim level option, while the Limited is the highest, most expensive configuration.
Unfortunately, there aren’t many changes or upgrades in the 2023 Hyundai Kona compared to the 2022 model.
The horsepower and gas mileage are the same and they come with options for AWD, just like the 2022 model did.

The 2023 Hyundai Kona N-line is our recommended trim level. You get 18-inch wheels, wider tires, and this trim is longer than the others.
The gas mileage is slightly lower than the other trims, but when it comes to torque, performance, and handling, N-Line does it better. The horsepower is higher, with better Torque @ RPM than the other three trims.
