2026 Chevrolet Trax Vs. Hyundai Kona Specs: Performance

Although both models feature small yet powerful, fuel-efficient engines, the turbocharged engine in the 2026 Chevrolet Trax produces significantly more torque than the standard engine in the 2026 Hyundai Kona. Additionally, the six-speed automatic transmission in the Trax provides traditional shifting, providing a better driving experience than the CVT paired with the base engine in the Kona. For an additional cost, the Kona offers a more powerful turbocharged engine, but it comes with a fuel-economy penalty.
