2022 HYUNDAI KONA

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage title and identifies the primary damage as “SIDE.” The visible evidence supports the SIDE damage classification: extensive missing and deformed components are present on the right rear side. The salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The 2022 Hyundai Kona has severe collision damage concentrated on the right rear side. The complete right rear passenger door is missing, leaving the door opening and interior components exposed. A large section of the right rear quarter panel around the wheel arch is also absent, exposing inner body surfaces and mounting points. The side sill below the rear door opening is bent and torn, with creasing, scraped paint, torn edges, and an irregular open section. The right rear wheel-arch trim and adjacent cladding are missing. Detached white-painted body panels and black trim components are lying across the rear seating and cargo area, and at least one of the white panels is visibly bent and creased. The vehicle would require extensive body-panel, structural-area, trim, and interior-related repairs. A thorough physical inspection should also assess the exposed mounting points, side-sill structure, wheel-arch area, suspension, wiring, restraints, and alignment before purchase or repair planning. According to the VIN decode, this is a South Korea-built 2022 Hyundai Kona SUV/MPV with front-wheel drive, a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and seating for five. The decoded safety equipment includes front, side, and first- and second-row curtain airbags, electronic stability control, traction control, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, forward-collision warning, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, and a rear-visibility system.
