Hyundai Announces Pricing for 2019 Kona

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Oct. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Hyundai Motor America has announced pricing for its 2019 Kona, starting at $19,990 for the SE model. For the 2019 model year, Kona’s safety equation is enhanced by standardizing key Hyundai SmartSense™ safety technologies for a more sophisticated driving experience. The 2019 Kona is on sale now. 

The new standard Hyundai SmartSense safety technologies (listed below) on the Kona add additional protection for drivers and passengers.
