The Kona isn’t the most spacious car of this type, but neither is it particularly cramped. Taller adults will find rear headroom gets a bit tight, and there’s less space than in the Ford Puma, Volkswagen’s T-Roc or the Kia Niro EV.
The boot is average, at 374 litres, although unlike some rivals, the hybrid model doesn’t lose any luggage space. The Kona Electric’s boot is a bit tighter, at 332 litres, and is outshone by the 451 litres you get in an E-Niro. You can fold the rear seats down on all models, though, which opens up room for larger items.
There are plenty of homes for odds and ends, with a pair of cupholders, a cubby hole in front of the gearstick and a big storage box under the centre armrest. The Kona Electric gets a large storage tray under the centre console.
