Hyundai Kona
The Hyundai Kona gets a significant mid-cycle update for 2022. The front end looks sharper, while the interior boasts a more modern appearance. The available turbocharged 1.6-litre engine is now more powerful, while the Kona Electric returns with the same specs. The big news this year is the high-performance Kona N, which can go from 0-100 km/h in just 5.5 seconds thanks to a turbocharged 2.0-litre engine producing 276 horsepower.
