1. Yes. We have a 2021 Hyundai Kona Ultimate.

1.6 liter turbo, 7 speed dual clutch transmission, 18 in alloy rims, pop up display, leather interior. We like it very much. The only downside is that most of the interior surfaces are hard plastic.

We’ve only got about 13,500 miles on it, even though it was five years old last month. I’ve been obsessive about maintenance. We’ve changed oil every 6 months — 10 times so far. The highest mileage between oil changes was 2015 miles. The lowest was 232 miles!

The dealership only switched from semi synthetic to full synthetic oil about a year ago; always Quaker State. I’d prefer a different brand, and full synthetic from the start, but we’ve had zero problems so far. Admittedly, 13,000 miles isn’t much.
