Compare the Hyundai Kona vs Lexus LBX
AI generated from our expert reviews
In the Hyundai Kona, taller drivers will find little issue with space, whereas leg space in the Lexus LBX is fairly cramped, particularly for taller drivers. In the back, taller passengers in the Kona have plenty of legroom and headroom, and it is not too cramped for three people side by side. By contrast, tall passengers in the LBX will be rubbing their hair on the roof lining, and fitting three across the back is a challenge. Fitting a child seat is really easy in the Kona without having to move the front seats forward, but pretty tough in the LBX, though both cars have ISOFIX mounting points that are easy to get to. For luggage, the Kona has a bigger boot with no lip to slide items over, whereas the LBX has a deep lip. The Kona can also tow more and provides more room with the back seats folded.
