Do you know the Korean formula? In the automotive industry, it consists in offering a very well-assembled, reliable product, complete with a fairly long warranty, and then including as much equipment as possible for the price. Even if this variant is a basic model, the Hyundai Kona Essential is replete in technology... and that includes giving you all-wheel power.

Oh, and it's a lot of fun to drive as well. Although like with the Kia Seltos, you have to aim for the turbo engine to have the best fun behind the wheel – and that will cost you a few bucks more.
