Compare the Hyundai Kona vs Volvo EX30
AI generated from our expert reviews
If you need space for passengers and luggage, the Hyundai Kona holds clear practical advantages over the Volvo EX30. Taller passengers have plenty of legroom in the back of the Kona, whereas rear kneeroom in the EX30 is tight, and fitting a child seat in the Volvo will probably mean pushing the front seat forward. The Kona also provides a bigger boot, along with more room with the rear seats folded. Its dashboard features buttons that make it quick and easy to adjust settings on the move, unlike the EX30, where running controls through the central screen can be frustrating. However, the Volvo EX30 is more powerful than the Kona. The Volvo is also remarkably comfortable over road imperfections, with no crashing or thudding over potholes or speed bumps, whereas the Kona jiggles about and can feel like it is never quite settled over poor road surfaces.
