Every 8,000 miles (13,000 km) or 12 months

From the normal maintenance schedule in the 2027 Kona owner's manual, read November 3, 2026. I means inspect and, if necessary, adjust, correct, clean or replace. R means replace or change.

Hyundai says to never add additives to the engine oil. For oil grade and capacity, see our Kona oil type and capacity guide.

Kona replacement intervals

From the normal maintenance schedule in the 2027 Kona owner's manual, read November 3, 2026. Where both miles and months are shown, service is due at whichever comes first.

Hyundai notes the spark plugs can be replaced before their interval when other items are being serviced. Our service team can replace your cabin air filter and handle the rest of the schedule.

Kona inspection intervals

From the normal maintenance schedule in the 2027 Kona owner's manual, read November 3, 2026. The chart runs to 104,000 miles (156 months).

Hyundai says the drive belt should be replaced when cracks occur or tension is reduced excessively, and that the transmission fluid, transfer case oil and rear differential oil should be changed anytime they have been submerged in water. The fuel filter is considered maintenance free, but Hyundai says to replace it immediately if there is fuel flow restriction, surging, loss of power or hard starting.

Severe usage schedule

The 2027 Kona manual says to follow its severe usage schedule if any of its conditions apply:

From the maintenance under severe usage and low mileage conditions table of the 2027 Kona owner's manual, read November 3, 2026. Each item applies only under the driving conditions the manual lists for it.

Severe conditions in the manual: repeated short trips of less than 5 mi (8 km) in normal temperatures or less than 10 mi (16 km) in freezing temperatures; extensive idling or low-speed driving for long distances; rough, dusty, muddy, unpaved, graveled or salt-spread roads; areas using salt or other corrosive materials, or very cold weather; heavy dust; heavy traffic; uphill, downhill or mountain roads; towing, camping or loads on the roof; patrol car, taxi or other commercial use; frequent high speeds or rapid acceleration and deceleration; frequent stop-and-go driving; and engine oil that is not recommended. Hyundai also says to use the severe schedule after more than 10 years or 100,000 mi.

The Oil Life Management System

Hyundai says the Kona may be equipped with an Oil Life Management System that predicts engine oil life from your driving history. If the oil wears faster because of how the vehicle is driven, the remaining oil life alert appears on the instrument cluster before the normal replacement interval.

The system works when the recommended engine oil is used; if it is not, Hyundai says to follow the severe usage schedule. Reset the remaining oil life from the infotainment system every time the oil is changed, and if no alert appears by the maximum maintenance interval, Hyundai says to have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Hyundai dealer.
