New models - Hyundai - KonaHero-themed Hyundai Kona suits upRed metalwork and stark styling a marvel as Hyundai Kona Iron Man Edition rockets in28 Feb 2019 HYUNDAI Motor Company Australia (HMCA) will import a themed Kona variant, with design elements and equipment nodding to Marvel Comics’ Iron Man franchise.
Suitably named Iron Man Edition, Hyundai will offer just 400 units to Australian customers, priced at $39,990 plus on-road costs.
That puts the special edition atop the Kona range, with the full-time line-up priced from $23,500 for the base Go, up to $39,000 for the top-dog Highlander.
The Iron Man Edition uses Hyundai’s flagship 130kW/265Nm 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine mated with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and an all-paw driveline.
Distinguishing it from the regular Kona, the themed small SUV features a bespoke matte grey paint with ‘Iron Man red’ touches, unique 18-inch alloy wheels, ‘Iron Man’ emblems on the front guards and projected through the puddle lamps, and a redesigned bonnet with a Marvel logo.
The superhero theme continues in the cabin, with red stitching on the shift lever and leather seats, with ‘STARK Industries’ and Iron Man masks stitched onto the backrests.
A special welcome animation appears on the instrument cluster and head-up display, and the 8.0-inch touchscreen display loads an Arc Reactor-themed graphical user interface.
Hyundai Motor Company Australia chief executive officer JW Lee suggested that the Kona has always featured unique and “expressive” styling.
“The Kona range has always had a strong identity with its expressive styling and choice of vibrant exterior colours, but the Kona Iron Man Edition takes this a step further with its audacious Iron Man inspired looks and tech equipment.”
“With only 400 cars coming to Australia, the Kona Iron Man Edition will be a unique ownership experience, combining the Kona’s style, technology and performance with a slice of superhero fun!”
Standard kit includes rear park assist, tyre pressure monitoring, LED head-lights with dusk sensing and static bending, a power driver’s seat, a smart key with Iron Man mask detail, climate control with automatic defog, sat-nav, DAB+ radio, Apply CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, a Krell eight-speaker audio system, roof rails and a 4.2-inch TFT cluster.
Safety equipment includes radar and camera-based autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot warning, driver attention warning, automatic high beams, lane-keep assist and rear cross-traffic alert. ![]() Read more8th of February 2019 ![]() Hyundai updates Elantra range-toppersFacelifted Hyundai Elantra Sport, Sport Premium check in from $28,990 plus ORCs22nd of January 2019 ![]() Hyundai reveals new multi-collision airbag techFuture Hyundai and Kia vehicles to receive newly designed multi-collision airbags9th of January 2019 ![]() CES: Hyundai unveils augmented reality windscreenNavigation data, driver-assist systems projected onto road with new Hyundai tech8th of January 2019 ![]() CES: Hyundai struts out Elevate walking carRough terrain-ready Hyundai Elevate concept aimed at emergency response service3rd of January 2019 ![]() CES: Hyundai teases first Ultimate Mobility VehicleHyundai goes way off the beaten track with unusual four-legged Elevate robotic EV10th of December 2018 ![]() Hyundai adds sporty N Line grades to i30 line-upSR out, N Line in as Hyundai’s critical i30 small car gets a pre-Christmas workoverAll new models![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Kona pricing
