A used Hyundai Kona radiator carries a median asking price of $237, which is 28% higher than the Jeep Wrangler at $170. Supply also plays a role: Jeep Wrangler has 3,554 priced listings versus 276 for Hyundai Kona, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
Our guide covers 9 model years for the Jeep Wrangler (2017–2025) but only 4 for the Hyundai Kona (2020–2024), so the Jeep Wrangler data reflects a broader range of generations.
The Jeep Wrangler radiator is interchangeable across 19 model years versus just 8 for the Hyundai Kona — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Jeep Wrangler is 30% cheaper ($170 vs $242) — the gap narrows compared to the overall median difference.
The Jeep Wrangler has 10 known trim variants compared to 3 for the Hyundai Kona, which means buyers need to be more careful about matching the exact engine or drivetrain configuration on the Jeep Wrangler.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used radiator
- Inspect for bent or crushed fins — minor cosmetic bending is OK, but large crushed sections reduce cooling capacity.
- Check both tanks (top and bottom) for cracks, especially along the crimped seams on plastic-tank radiators.
- Confirm the inlet/outlet positions and sizes match — some models moved ports between model years.
- Look for internal blockage: shake the unit and listen for debris, or flush it with a garden hose before installing.
