Hyundai Kona was first introduced last year. It has now adorned with an additional body kit that leverages the theme of Iron Man!

Hyundai Kona Iron Man Edition, as the name might suggest, is inspired by everyone’s favourite hero – Iron Man. The line-up of the Kona Iron Man includes five different variants. On the US market, Hyundai Kona Iron Man is announced to be priced at $30,550 (around Rs 21,39 lakh) for the low-end variant. The price goes up to $31,950 at the top-spec variant, equivalent to 22.37 lakh. Apart from the official price tag, you must have to pay an additional fee of $1,045 as the destination charges.

First debuted at the 2019 San Diego Comicon festival, the Kona Iron Man is only produced in a limited number. This version receives the body kit that reminds you of Marvel’s superhero, for example, the new LED DRL inspired by Iron Man’s face mask. The body of this special edition takes clues from the armour of the Iron Man: the exterior of the car gets the matte grey finish with red inserts that is similar to the colour of Iron Man’s armour. Not only creating a strong correlation to the Kona Iron Man, but this colour palette also makes the Kona appear more mysterious and futuristic.

Hyundai Kona Iron Man Edition has various details that take inspiration from the Kona 

Along with the new car paint, the Kona also gets an Iron Man decal on the rooftop. At the front bonnet, a cool V-shaped that bears Marvel’s badge adds more character to the body of the car. Another cool Iron-Man-related element you can find is the 18-inch alloy wheels with the Iron Man logo put on the centre cap as well as the Iron Man badge on the tailgate.

Inside the vehicle, the Iron Man theme is strongly put out. It has the Iron Man-inspired gear knob, Iron Man them for the head-up display and Iron mans-styled graphics on the central console, not to mention the Iron-Man seat. And the interior comes harmonious with the exterior in terms of colour use. Again, the interior is dominated by black and spiced up with stylish red trims on the air vents, gear knob housing.

The powertrain of the Kona Iron Man includes a 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine and a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The power could be transferred to either the front or all wheels. This option has shown that this special edition is more than the redesigned body and that it comes with a justiciable engine setting.

Hyundai Kona Iron Man Edition is delivered to the dealership, ready for sales. In the meanwhile, Hyundai Motor India is working on the electric vehicle
