2027 Hyundai Kona For Sale In Olympia

If you're searching for a 2027 Hyundai Kona for sale in Olympia, you've landed on one of the more practical small SUVs on the market right now. We work with drivers across the South Puget Sound every day, and the Kona keeps coming up as a favorite among buyers who want a roomy cabin, real safety tech, and a price that won't blow up their budget.

Before you commit, contact our sales team and we'll walk you through what's changed and what hasn't for the new model year.

Why the 2027 Hyundai Kona Is Worth Buying

People notice the Kona's styling first, but the substance underneath is what actually closes the deal once they sit inside. The rear seat fits adult passengers without complaint, cargo space swallows a real grocery run or a weekend's worth of gear, and the 12.3-inch touchscreen still pairs with physical buttons and knobs, so you're not fumbling through menus at a stoplight. Every trim comes with driver-assist features built in standard, not tacked on as pricey add-ons.

The safety credentials back this up. The Kona is one of seven Hyundai models to earn a 2026 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ award, joining the Palisade, Tucson, Santa Fe, Sonata, IONIQ 5, and IONIQ 9, which is unusual company for a vehicle at this price.

Hyundai also backs the Kona with a 10-Year/100,000-Mile Powertrain Limited Warranty, a 5-Year/60,000-Mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty, a 7-Year/Unlimited-Mile Anti-Perforation Warranty, and 5-Year/Unlimited-Mile Roadside Assistance. That's a lot of coverage for a vehicle in this price class, and it's part of why so many Olympia drivers cross-shop the Kona against the Honda HR-V, Toyota Corolla Cross, and Subaru Crosstrek before landing on Hyundai anyway.

What's New for the 2027 Hyundai Kona

The 2027 Kona is a carryover year, and we'd rather tell you that plainly than dress it up. The lineup still runs four trims, two engine choices, and the same core technology package that made last year's model successful. Two changes are worth flagging before you buy.

First, Idle Stop and Go (ISG) has been dropped from the SE trim, so that entry-level model no longer automatically shuts off the engine at stops. Second, Ambient Lighting is now exclusive to the Limited trim. SEL Premium and above used to include it, but for 2027 you'll need the top trim to get that feature. The engine lineup and the SmartSense safety suite carry over unchanged. Units are arriving now, and we can give you a current read on what's on our lot when you reach out.

Hyundai's 2027 Kona pricing runs from $25,500 for the SE with front-wheel drive up to $34,035 for the Limited with HTRAC all-wheel drive, before destination and any options. Adding HTRAC runs $1,500 on every trim, so you can work out roughly where your configuration lands. Figures move throughout the year, so check current offers with our team, or browse our new vehicles inventory for what's actually on the lot right now.

If you're financing, our credit application makes it easy to get pre-approved, and we're happy to talk trade-in value at the same time.

Explore the 2027 Kona Trim Lineup

Each trim builds on the one below it, so picking the right Kona really comes down to which features matter most to your daily drive.

SE

The SE is the entry point, and it's better equipped than you might expect. It runs a 147-horsepower 2.0L four-cylinder engine paired with an Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT) and front-wheel drive, and it rides on 17-inch alloy wheels. You get LED headlights and taillights, body-color mirrors and door handles, a rear spoiler, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A 4.2-inch gauge cluster and Smart Cruise Control round things out, and SmartSense safety tech is standard. Remember, the 2027 SE no longer includes Idle Stop and Go.

SEL Sport

The SEL Sport adds a layer of comfort and convenience over the SE. Expect 18-inch alloy wheels, heated front seats, dual automatic temperature control, a wireless charging pad, and a power driver seat. It keeps the same 147-hp 2.0L engine, IVT (Intelligent Variable Transmission), front-wheel drive, and 4.2-inch gauge cluster as the SE.

SEL Premium

Step up to the SEL Premium and you get a meaningfully different driving experience. It swaps in a 190-horsepower turbocharged 1.6L four-cylinder engine making 195 lb-ft of torque, paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, with front-wheel drive standard and HTRAC available.

You'll also find 19-inch wheels, a power driver seat, a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, H-Tex seating, and a color-matched rear spoiler. One thing to note: ambient lighting isn't included on the SEL Premium for 2027, since that feature moved to the Limited trim only.

Limited

The Limited trim is where the Kona gets genuinely upscale. It adds ventilated front seats, an eight-speaker Bose audio system, a sunroof, Hyundai Digital Key 2 Touch, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and Highway Driving Assist. You also get a Surround View Monitor with a 360-degree camera, Remote Smart Parking Assist, Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist, parking sensors, and Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control. Ambient lighting is exclusive to this trim for 2027.

Standout Features Across the Kona Lineup

Every 2027 Kona, regardless of trim, comes with a 12.3-inch touchscreen supporting wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus USB-C ports in both rows so nobody's fighting over a charging cable on a road trip. Standard SmartSense features are included across the board: Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with pedestrian, cyclist, and junction detection, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Following Assist, Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go, Driver Attention Warning, Safe Exit Warning, Rear Occupant Alert, and High Beam Assist. All 2026 Hyundais included seven standard SmartSense features, and that safety-first approach carries into the 2027 lineup.

For buyers who want more capability, HTRAC AWD is available on every gas-powered trim. That matters here in Olympia, where wet roads and hilly, stop-and-go commutes toward Tacoma, Puyallup, or Chehalis are just part of daily life behind the wheel. HTRAC sends power to the wheels with the most grip, which gives you more confidence during a rainy South Puget Sound commute than front-wheel drive alone would. The turbocharged 1.6L engine available on SEL Premium and Limited also gives you a noticeable step up in responsiveness if you're regularly merging onto I-5 or climbing the hills around Olympia.
