Compare the Hyundai Kona vs Hyundai Bayon
AI generated from our expert reviews
Choosing between these two crossovers comes down to size and refinement. The Hyundai Kona has a bigger boot than the Hyundai Bayon, offers more room with the back seats folded and can tow more. Inside, both cars feature physical climate control buttons that are a joy to use. When you use the screens, the Kona's display is sharp and responsive, whereas the Bayon's setup is not super responsive, even if it remains nice to use. Out on the motorway, the Kona gives you little wind and road noise, but those sounds are not as well suppressed in the Bayon. If you tackle country lanes, each car has light steering that leaves you with little sense of how much grip your tyres have.
