    Thinking of buying the 2021 Hyundai Kona Essential?

    We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Hyundai Kona Essential for sale by us right now. Buying the 2021 Hyundai Kona Essential is a big decision; here is the information we have.

    Before you sign for the Kona

    A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

    The numbers in plain words

    Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder; drive: front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    Fuel use is rated 7.9 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 24 litres. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $36.75 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    Space, size and seats

    It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.

    Best uses

    It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

    Rent it for a week first

    Rent first, buy later: a week with the Kona answers the big questions. Drive the Kona on your commute before you commit to it. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

    Money matters

    Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.25 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $122.50 at our price setting.

    Year and trim

    Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

    Simplot and the Kona

    Simplot is about 2,985 km from our Toronto location: the car is picked up in Toronto, or delivered on request. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Simplot.
