Comparison Review

Comfort
The Chevrolet Trailblazer offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the Hyundai Kona. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Chevrolet Trailblazer and the Hyundai Kona.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Chevrolet Trailblazer as you will with the Hyundai Kona, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Chevrolet Trailblazer will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Hyundai Kona.

Dimensions
The Chevrolet Trailblazer is about the same width as the Hyundai Kona. When looking at overall length, the Chevrolet Trailblazer takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Hyundai Kona.

Handling
The Chevrolet Trailblazer has a larger turning radius than the Hyundai Kona, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Chevrolet Trailblazer has a little more horsepower than the Hyundai Kona.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Chevrolet Trailblazer transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Hyundai Kona.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Trailblazer and the Hyundai Kona. The Chevrolet Trailblazer has less cargo space than the Hyundai Kona, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
