When comparing Hyundai Kona trim levels, distinguish the powertrain designation from the equipment package. Premium is an equipment configuration offered with the gasoline, front-wheel-drive 1.0 DCT. Check the individual vehicle’s fitted features against your priorities, such as seat comfort, parking assistance and phone connectivity, since the version name alone does not establish its equipment.
