Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat may find themselves a little more cramped in the Hyundai Kona than the Mitsubishi Outlander. The Hyundai Kona offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Mitsubishi Outlander, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Hyundai Kona as you will with the Mitsubishi Outlander, 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 Hyundai Kona will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Mitsubishi Outlander.

Dimensions
Since the Hyundai Kona is much slimmer than the Mitsubishi Outlander, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the Hyundai Kona, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Mitsubishi Outlander.

Handling
The Hyundai Kona has a smaller turning radius than the Mitsubishi Outlander, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Hyundai Kona has a little more horsepower than the Mitsubishi Outlander.

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

Utility
The Hyundai Kona has less seating than the Mitsubishi Outlander, making the Mitsubishi Outlander the better choice, if you need to chauffeur many passengers. You'll be able to fit about the same amount of groceries in the Hyundai Kona as you will in the Mitsubishi Outlander.
