Nissan Qashqai 2021 vs Hyundai Kona 2021: Choose the option with more space inside
May 24 2021,
Both the 2021 Nissan Qashqai and the 2021 Hyundai Kona are two small SUVs priced roughly the same and aiming at the same type of consumer. That consumer is dynamic, leads an active lifestyle, maybe has a young family, and is always ready for their next adventure. Or, they simply want an affordable vehicle to get around the city in that won’t cost too much and is fuel-efficient as well.
The 2021 Nissan Qashqai and the Kona can both do everything you need them to do, but the Qashqai has the advantage in terms of the performance it delivers, the versatility it offers, and the safety technologies that are available. The Qashqai is also more spacious for your passengers inside.
More space in the 2021 Nissan Qashqai
The 2021 Nissan Qashqai delivers more interior space and improved versatility over the 2021 Hyundai Kona. As a matter of fact, the Qashqai is one of the most spacious small SUVs you can buy while the Kona is one of the smallest. The Nissan features over 600 litres of rear cargo space and can hold up to 1 730 litres if you fold the rear seats. The Kona, on the other hand, only has 1,226 litres of cargo space in total meaning that it delivers far less versatility than the Qashqai. If you have an active lifestyle, the Nissan Qashqai is the best way to go.
Under the hood, the 2021 Hyundai Kona has the advantage over the Qashqai in terms of horsepower, but horsepower only matters on a race track. What matters most around the city and on the highway is torque, and the Qashqai has 147 pound-feet of torque to send to either the front or all four wheels. The Kona only has 132 pound-feet of torque.
The 2021 Nissan Qashqai also offers much more impressive safety features including the exclusive Nissan ProPILOT Assist system. This system offers a range of automated driving features as well as automatic lane-centering and adaptive cruise control with automatic braking. This system is designed to mimic advanced systems offered in much more expensive vehicles.
