Fitment questions

Does the Hyundai Kona actually have a bonnet strut, or does it use a bonnet rod?

The Hyundai Kona uses a bonnet strut (gas strut) to hold the bonnet open, so this is the correct part to look for. It does not rely on a simple prop rod, meaning a functioning gas strut is essential for safe bonnet operation. If yours has collapsed or lost pressure, a used strut from a dismantler is a straightforward replacement.

Will a bonnet strut from a 2018 Kona fit a 2021 Kona?

The first-generation Kona ran from 2017 to 2023, but received a facelift around 2020-2021 which brought changes to the front end including the bonnet shut line area. A 2018 strut and a 2021 strut are both first-gen, but because the facelift may have altered bonnet geometry or mounting points, you should confirm with the breaker whether the pre-facelift and post-facelift struts interchange before buying.

Did the Kona facelift change the bonnet strut, or are they all the same?

The first-generation Kona was facelifted around 2020-2021, and while the bonnet itself may have been revised alongside the updated front styling, it is not certain whether the strut mounting points changed between pre- and post-facelift cars. Name the facelift boundary to the breaker and give them your registration so they can check the correct strut against your specific car.

Does trim level affect which bonnet strut I need - for example, does a Kona N Line need a different strut to a standard SE or Premium?

Trim level does not affect bonnet strut fitment on the Kona - the strut is determined by the generation and facelift period, not whether the car is an SE, Premium, Ultimate, or N Line. All of those trims share the same bonnet and strut setup within the same build period. You may find cosmetic differences around the bonnet area between trims, but the strut itself will be the same part.

Does the engine or drivetrain affect which bonnet strut fits my Kona?

No - whether your Kona has a petrol, diesel, hybrid, or electric drivetrain makes no difference to the bonnet strut. The strut is part of the front bodywork structure, which is shared across engine variants within a generation. Simply match the generation and facelift period rather than worrying about what is under the bonnet.

Can I use a bonnet strut from a second-generation Kona on my first-generation car?

The second-generation Kona launched from around 2023 onwards on a new platform with a redesigned body, so its bonnet strut is very unlikely to be compatible with a first-generation (2017-2023) car. These are distinct vehicles with different front-end structures, and mixing generations is not recommended. Stick to parts from the same generation and confirm the facelift period with the breaker using your registration.
