Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Hyundai Kona than in the FIAT 500X, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Hyundai Kona offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the FIAT 500X, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Convenience
The Hyundai Kona requires fewer stops at the gas station than the FIAT 500X, making it more convenient to drive.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The FIAT 500X is somewhat more expensive than the Hyundai Kona.

Dimensions
The FIAT 500X is a little narrower than the Hyundai Kona, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. The FIAT 500X is slightly shorter than the Hyundai Kona, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The FIAT 500X has a larger turning radius than the Hyundai Kona, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The FIAT 500X has a little less horsepower than the Hyundai Kona.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the FIAT 500X transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Hyundai Kona.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the FIAT 500X and the Hyundai Kona. The FIAT 500X has significantly less cargo capacity than the Hyundai Kona.
