The Iron Man is one of the most loved comic book based super hero. And Hyundai too is a fan we guess. And that is because the Korean carmaker unveiled a Hyundai Kona Iron Man edition at the ongoing San Diego Comicon festival in USA. The Hyundai Kona Iron Man Edition will have a limited run and the production will begin in December 2018, with the first car hitting the streets in early 2019. The 2019 Hyundai Kona Iron Man edition has a unique light signature up front which includes a custom LED daytime running lamps that quite resemble the facemask and the eye shape of the Iron Man suit. The Iron Man suit was one of the key design inspirations for the Kona.
