Enjoy Your Family Road Trip in the Hyundai Kona
With everything going on, it feels like summer has been put on hold. Many of us have canceled our vacations to wisely avoid crowds, flights, and risks. However, as we adapt to the current issues we’re all facing, it’s important to stay connected with our family and friends. That’s why the Heritage Hyundai Towson team thinks that this summer is the perfect time for a good ole fashioned road trip. Road trips present opportunities to visit amazing national parks, learn from historical landmarks, and bond with our travel buddies along the way. Things are opening back up and with the right safety precautions, you can enjoy the open road with your loved ones. All you need are snacks, a good playlist, a few points of interest, and the perfect vehicle to get you there. We can’t help you choose the perfect travel buddies, but we can help you select the best vehicle to enjoy the journey. To have the best possible trip, you’ll need to check these things off your list: comfort, fuel economy, safety, and technology. This sounds daunting but the Hyundai Kona checks all the boxes.
More Smiles Per Gallon
If you’re going to be covering a lot of miles, you’ll want to make the most out of every gallon. The Kona is standard with a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder engine mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC®. This powertrain produces both power and efficiency, the perfect combo for a road trip. The stop-start engine system turns off the engine when you come to a stop to conserve fuel. All of these features lead to 33 mpg on the highway, which means fewer pit stops.*
Room for More Cargo and Comfort
Road trips inherently involve spending long hours in your vehicle, so it’s important to have plenty of comfort and space to stretch out. Premium upholstery brings a level of luxury and comfort you’ll appreciate for miles to come. Everyone will argue over who gets driving duty and shotgun thanks to the driver and passenger adjustable seats. Spacious rear seats also offer custom comfort for hours of riding. Seating for up to five with split-folding rear seats makes it a breeze to load up. Automatic climate control makes sure all passengers get to enjoy the most optimal temperature, so there won’t be any arguing over one passenger being too hot and another being too cold. The more people you bring, the more luggage you’ll have, so cargo space is essential. The Kona provides the space you need and then some.
Protection While You’re on the Road
With a car full of people, it can be hard to focus on the road. Standard technology features like Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™, as well as USB and Bluetooth® connectivity, can keep the whole gang entertained on the road. The Ultimate trim-level includes premium features like built-in wireless device charging and a complimentary 3-year subscription to Hyundai’s Blue Link® Connected Car System, which allows you to pair your smartphone with your vehicle for remote operations and personal assistance services.
Stay Connected from Anywhere
No matter where your travels take you, the Hyundai Kona has the technology you need to stay in touch and on the route. You can rely on features like Electronic Stability Control with Traction Control and Brake Assist, as well as a Tire Pressure Monitoring System with individual tire indicator. Upgrades include radar-guided smart safety features, including passive systems like Blind-Spot Collision Warning and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning, as well as active systems like Lane Change Assist and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection.
We’re excited to take advantage of summer and all the excitement that the season brings. Despite all that’s going on right now, we think that it’s more important than ever that we come together and spend valuable time with our loved ones. If you’re ready to load up and explore the open road this summer, contact the Heritage Hyundai Towson sales team. We can help you find the best vehicle to see the country with your family.
