Hyundai has announced pricing and specification for the new Kona Play trim level, which is available to order with immediate effect.

The Hyundai Kona Play includes 18-inch alloys and a choice of premium paint finishes, on top of the SE specification that Play is built upon

The Kona Play is priced at £18,355 and joins the i10 Play and i20 Play in combining plenty of standard equipment based on the SE specifcation, but adds 18-inch alloys and privacy glass and metallic or pearl paint options at no additional cost to the asking price. The car is equipped with an 1.0 T-GDi three-cylinder engine which powers the front wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox.

The SE specification that Play is built upon includes a 7-inch touchscreen, DAB radio with Apple and Google compatibility, rear parking sensors with rear-view camera, cruise control with speed limiter, Bluetooth, air conditioning and a leather steering wheel and gear lever. Safety features include Lane Keep Assist, Driver Attention Alert, Hill Start Assist and Downhill Brake Control. A space saver spare wheel is also fitted as standard.

Customers have a choice of 7 colours, with no additional charge for metallic or pearl paint finishes. Colour choice includes Acid Yellow, Blue Lagoon, Chalk White, Lake Silver, Phantom Black, Pulse Red or Tangerine Comet.

Ashley Andrew, managing director, Hyundai Motor UK said, “the i10 and i20 Play have been incredibly popular since their introduction only three months ago and with Kona Play offering the similar mix of high specification equipment at a low price, we expect the demand for Kona Play to be just as strong as the other Play models”.

The car comes with Hyundai’s standard five-year unlimited mileage warranty, roadside assistance package, five-year annual health check, and 12-year anti corrosion warranty.
