Hyundai Kauai

1st gen (OS; PT-market), 2017–2020

License plate of Portugal, Regular plates

Madrid, Spain

My first Hyundai Kauai!
For those who don't know why the Hyundai Kona was sold in Portugal as Kauai, it's because there is a similar word in their language, "cona", which is a swear word.

Did not know that you also knew about this name change! I read about it some years ago. Well, you would because you are close to Portugal, so that checks out!  :D

I'm not that close to Portugal (keep in mind that I live 500 km away from Portugal), but still, I knew about it by translating what Excalibur said here, since that info was written in Russian  =)

As a Portuguese I can confirm it  :D I's also very funny to me because it has the same meaning in Galicia..but Hyundai didn't change the name there!  :rofl:

Yeah, it wouldn't make sense to change the name of the model in Spain just because that word has the same meaning in the Galician language, that's why they didn't change the name over here  :D
