What does a used Hyundai Kona cost in Canada?
These ranges are built from current average asking prices on CarGurus.ca across Canada, year by year. They cover the bulk of the market: a very high-kilometre car will sit below the range, and a nearly new, dealer-certified one at the top or above it.

Which Kona generation should you buy?
2018 to 2023: small and fun
A small crossover with a 2.0L, or a 1.6L turbo that makes it quick. The 2022 refresh improved the tech and styling.
2024 and newer: bigger
The second generation is roomier and much more modern inside.
Kona pros and cons
What owners like
- Fun to drive for its size
- Lots of features for the money
- AWD available
What owners complain about
- Tight rear seat and cargo area on first generation
- Firm ride
- Road noise
What should you check before buying a used Kona?
- 1.6L turbo: drive it in traffic and feel the dual-clutch transmission for hesitation or jerks at low speed.
- Kona Electric: if you're looking at the electric version, confirm the battery recall work was done.
- All years: test AWD and the screen, read the full Carfax and run the VIN for open recalls.
Those are the Kona-specific items. The general checks for any used car are in my pre-purchase inspection checklist, and before any money moves, run a lien check.

A Kona is a good small crossover if you want something cheap and fun. A 2022 or 2023 refresh is the one to get.
