The wife and I came home with a new Kona Ultimate. We trade a CX-3 ion on it. The CX-3 was an OK car but the Kona is a great car.

Best of luck with it, what is your favorite part of it ? I am still amazed of the backup clarity and screen !

The well laid out interior and good use of space. That was my biggest problem with the CX-3. I literally couldn't fit in it.

You over 6 foot?

Blessings and Peace

5 foot 10 inches. My shoulder was against the door pillar when I had the seat adjusted.

Welcome to the forum. Lots to glean for sure.
At 6'2 I agree with the fit & room in the Kona vs others I tested.
The Mazda was nice but definitely not comfortable for long haul (drives or ownership).

I'm 6'8 with plenty of room in mine !

Congrats and great choice!

My gf and I actually test drove the Kona immediately after test driving a CX-3, on a whim. We went to a Mazda dealer to test drive a Mazda3 hatch, tried out the CX-3 while we were there, and were so impressed we opened our minds to the subcompact CUV category. Then I mentioned that if we're looking at them, we should check out the Kona... and there happened to be a Hyundai dealership next door.

Long story short, after having driven the CX-3 moments before driving the Kona, the Kona is better in literally every way (unless you really have an issue with its styling.)

Love to see that folks are trading in their CX-3's for these, haha!
