New 2026 Hyundai Kona for Sale in Escondido, CA

Discover the Versatile 2026 Hyundai Kona SUV

Taking on the treacherous freeways and busy streets around San Marcos requires an SUV that is quick, agile and ready for anything. The 2026 Hyundai Kona is a stylish subcompact SUV ready for all your adventures. With four available trims - SEL Sport, SE, Limited, and SEL Premium - you can find the right Kona to match your lifestyle in Escondido and beyond. Whether commuting to work in Vista or taking a weekend trip to Oceanside, the Kona delivers a comfortable and connected driving experience.







Efficient and Responsive Performance in the Hyundai Kona

The Kona offers two engine options to get you anywhere you need to go in San Diego County. SE and SEL Sport trims come equipped with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 147 horsepower. More power comes in the higher Limited and SEL Premium trims in the form of a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with an output of 190 horsepower.

Both engines are paired with a smooth-shifting Continuously Variable Transmission or eight-speed automatic transmission, depending on the trim.

The Kona is available with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive to suit your driving preferences. In Poway, where road conditions vary, the available all-wheel drive system provides enhanced traction and stability for confident handling. And with Drive Mode Select, you can choose between Normal, Sport, and Snow modes to optimize performance based on the conditions.

Spacious and Well-Equipped Interior

Inside the Kona, you'll find a spacious, well-appointed interior ideal for everyday driving or longer trips. The SUV comfortably seats as many as five travelers, with generous headroom and legroom. Cloth or H-Tex upholstery, depending on the trim, provides a premium look and feel. Heated front seats, available on select trims, offer added comfort during chilly mornings in Kearny Mesa.

The Kona has convenient features to enhance your commute. Keyless entry and push-button start make it easy to get in and go, while automatic climate control keeps you comfortable no matter the weather in Ramona. A 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility keeps you connected and entertained on every journey.

Advanced Safety Features for Peace of Mind

Your safety is important to the Hyundai Kona. That's why it comes with an impressive array of advanced safety features. Lane following assist, blind-spot collision warning, rear cross-traffic collision-avoidance assist, and Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go are just a few of the technologies that work together to help keep you and your passengers protected. These features provide added peace of mind in Carlsbad, where traffic can be unpredictable.

The Limited trim takes the stress out of driving on the 5, with highway driving assist and navigation-based smart cruise control with curve control. These systems use cameras and sensors to help keep you centered in your lane and maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, even on curvy roads in Rancho Bernardo and El Cajon.
