Compare the Hyundai Kona vs Jaecoo 7
AI generated from our expert reviews
If practical demands lead your decision, the Jaecoo 7 has the upper hand, offering a larger boot than the Hyundai Kona as well as the ability to tow heavier loads. Point either car down a twisty road and you will find light steering that gives you little confidence or idea of how much grip your tyres have. Both cars also come with intrusive driver assistance systems that bong away and can be quite distracting. When you reach the motorway, however, the Jaecoo 7 suffers from more road noise than you would like, whereas the hybrid Kona proves a comfortable cruiser with little wind and road noise.
