2027 Hyundai Kona Trims and Pricing at Webb Hyundai Highland in Highland, Indiana

Webb Hyundai Highland | (219) 923-2277 | 9236 Indianapolis Blvd, Highland, IN 46322

What are the four 2027 Hyundai Kona trims?

SE, SEL Sport, SEL Premium and Limited. That is the whole ladder, and it climbs in a predictable way: the SE opens the lineup at a $25,500 starting MSRP, the two SEL trims fill the middle, and the Limited sits on top with the turbocharged engine. Four trims is a short list by 2026 standards, which makes the decision easier than it is on a lot of competing subcompact SUVs.

Because Hyundai still lists the 2026 Kona as the current model year on hyundaiusa.com, the 2027 is a same-generation carryover. Nothing about the trim walk should surprise a shopper who looked at a Kona last year.

What does a 2027 Kona actually cost at Webb Hyundai Highland?

Two numbers are verified as of August 10, 2026. The lineup starts at a $25,500 MSRP, and the single 2027 Kona physically on the ground at 9236 Indianapolis Blvd is an SEL Sport with front-wheel drive at $29,325. Everything between and above those two figures moves with packages, colors and incentives, so Webb Hyundai Highland will not print a per-trim MSRP chart that goes stale in a month.

The useful move for a shopper in Highland, Munster or Griffith is a phone call to (219) 923-2277 with the trim name and drivetrain in hand. The store can read the window sticker line by line, which is the only version of the price that is genuinely binding.

Which trim gets the turbocharged engine?

The Limited carries the 1.6L turbocharged GDI four-cylinder, rated at 190 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. The standard engine elsewhere is the 2.0L MPI four-cylinder at 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft. Stepping up to the turbo is worth 43 horsepower and 63 lb-ft, which is a real difference in a vehicle this size, not a rounding error.

Anyone who merges onto the Borman Expressway (I-80/94) twice a day will feel that gap on a short entrance ramp. Anyone whose driving is mostly surface streets between Highland and Hammond may never miss it.

Does trim choice change fuel economy?

Drivetrain moves the fuel economy needle more than trim badge does. Front-wheel-drive Konas are rated up to 35 MPG highway. Add HTRAC All Wheel Drive and the ratings land at 27 city / 29 highway / 28 combined, 26 / 29 / 27, or 25 / 28 / 26, depending on configuration. That is a spread of up to seven highway MPG between the best front-drive figure and the lowest all-wheel-drive figure.

So the honest sequence is: pick the drivetrain first based on how much winter driving you do, then pick the trim based on the features you want. Choosing the trim first and discovering the fuel economy consequence afterward is how shoppers end up disappointed in February.

Is the 2026 Kia Seltos cheaper trim for trim?

At the entry point, yes. The Seltos starts at $23,790 for a front-wheel-drive LX and $24,990 for an all-wheel-drive LX, so it undercuts the Kona’s $25,500 opening MSRP by $1,710 on the front-drive side. Power at the bottom of each lineup is nearly identical, 147 horsepower for the Kona against 146 for the Seltos.

The comparison gets more interesting at the top. Both peak at 190 horsepower, the Kona through its 1.6L turbo and the Seltos through its SX. On fuel economy the Kona takes the front-drive highway number, 35 against 34, while the Seltos takes the all-wheel-drive highway number, up to 31 against 29. Neither one runs away with it, which is exactly why a back-to-back drive matters more than a spec sheet.

How do I get a trim Webb Hyundai Highland does not have on the lot?

Ask for it. One 2027 Kona in stock means the SEL Sport front-wheel drive at $29,325 is the only unit a walk-in can drive today in Highland. Webb Hyundai Highland can locate additional 2027 Kona trims through its sister store, Webb Hyundai Merrillville, and through dealer trade with other Hyundai stores in the region.

That process runs faster when the request is specific. Naming the trim, the drivetrain and an acceptable color range lets the team search once instead of three times. Call (219) 923-2277 to start it, and read the full model breakdown on the 2027 Hyundai Kona page at Webb Hyundai Highland before deciding which trim to chase.
