More space in the Kona, and I find the Opel confusing with an oddly high step-in.

I feel very safe driving the Kona. I’ve been driving since I was 24 and I’m 76. I’ve had many brands — BMW X3, BMW X5, Ford, Peugeot, Renault — all very good brands, but the Kona seduced me and I don’t want to change; it’s just that the 2026 version isn’t coming into Argentina.

The Kona is an SUV that delivers, especially in terms of driving comfort. It's noticeably easier to get into and settle into as you get older. Less feisty than the MG4 but slightly more economical.
