Hyundai is giving two of its hybrid SUVs a darker look with special BLK Edition variants of the Kona and Tucson arriving in showrooms this month.
Based on the Elite trim-grade of each model, the special editions add dark exterior detailing combined with additional creature comforts, including Bose Premium Audio, to set them apart from regular models — at a $2650 premium.
Both are 2WD, with Hyundai confirming it’s bringing just 750 Tucson BLK Editions to Australia. No number has been specified for the Kona.
The Tucson BLK Edition is being sourced from Vietnam, instead of South Korea like the rest of the local Tucson line-up.
Both the Tucson and Kona are at the end of their lifecycles. A new-generation Tucson has already been revealed ahead of a mid-2027 local launch, while a new-generation Kona has been spied testing.
The Kona BLK Edition is priced from $42,600 RRP excluding on-road costs (with the mid-spec Kona Elite HEV it’s based on, $39,950 RRP). Atlas White is standard, with premium paint $595 extra.
The Tucson BLK Edition is priced from $51,000 RRP excluding on-road costs (with the mide-spec Tucson Elite HEV it’s based on, $48,350 RRP). Pearl White Mica is standard, with premium paint adding $750 to the bill.
