The 2026 Hyundai Kona introduces the brand-new SEL Sport and SEL Premium trim levels. These updated configurations provide standard wireless device charging and aggressive black exterior accents. Explore our updated subcompact SUV inventory below or visit our Muncie dealership for a test drive.

The SEL Sport: Efficiency Meets Bold Styling

For the 2026 model year, Hyundai has completely overhauled the Kona lineup, officially dropping the previous SEL and SEL Convenience trims. In their place, buyers will find the aggressively styled SEL Sport. This new configuration is designed for Indiana drivers who want head-turning aesthetics while maintaining the incredible fuel efficiency of the standard 2.0L Atkinson engine, which delivers up to 35 highway MPG.

From the outside, the SEL Sport immediately stands out with exclusive 18-inch black-painted alloy wheels, gloss black outside mirrors, and a matching gloss black rear spoiler. Inside the cabin, Hyundai has heavily upgraded the standard convenience technology. The SEL Sport now features heated front seats to combat chilly Muncie winters, front auto up/down windows, and a highly requested wireless device charging pad to keep your smartphone powered without messy cables.

You can browse our local Muncie Hyundai Kona inventory to see the aggressive stance of the new SEL Sport in person.

The SEL Premium: Turbocharged Power and Luxury

Drivers seeking higher performance will want to upgrade to the new SEL Premium trim, which directly replaces the outgoing N Line models. The SEL Premium swaps the base engine for a robust 1.6L Turbocharged powertrain generating 190 horsepower. It pairs this aggressive performance with larger 19-inch black and silver alloy wheels and a sleek body-color rear spoiler.

The interior of the SEL Premium focuses heavily on luxury and comfort. It introduces premium H-Tex leatherette seating surfaces with soft-touch door accents. The driver also benefits from an 8-way power driver's seat equipped with 2-way lumbar support, ensuring maximum comfort during long road trips down to Indianapolis. Furthermore, ambient LED interior lighting provides a sophisticated atmosphere during night driving.
