I love driving this car!

This car is the perfect size for me. More space in the garage compared to wedging my 2011 Sonata in there. Handles well, comfortable ride, it's great to finally have Apple CarPlay and a backup camera. I like the automated safety features, although the front collision avoidance is a little aggressive at times, at least for me. I can't really rate performance since I keep it in Eco mode all the time. I'm sure in Sport mode it would be peppier off that starting line, but I don't need that. I'm a great candidate for an EV, since I don't drive a lot and they're usually short trips. I've been able to survive using the included 110-volt "granny" charger most of the time, with occasional stops at a public charging station. I appreciate that Hyundai provided a free adapter for the Tesla charging network, although many stations are restricted to Teslas only.

Mostly a very good car

Good power, high efficiency, good enough range for me. The only problem is the driver seat headrest that pushes my head forward and down. Still looking for a fix.

Love my Kona EV!

I have had my Kona EV for over a year and I am very happy with it. It is just big enough to carry my elderly mother’s walker and my mother can get in and out easily. For one year, I only charged at home with a regular outlet and it was slow, but fine for my driving needs. Now I have a level 2 fast charger and that is amazing. I live in the Pacific Northwest, so finding chargers while on road trips is easy.

Smooth but powerful ride

I fell in love with my Kona the minute I took it for a test drive. I love the way it accelerates without hesitation. It is so quiet my husband is still amazed after 18 month. We take a 140 mile trip about every three weeks and I have no problems. It is a smooth ride on the highway. Setting the Cruze control and steering assist makes it so easy. I would never go back to a gas powered car and my Kona is just the perfect size and price for us.

Love my Kona EV

This is my second three year lease of the Kona EV. Good quality car. Would like it to be more sturdy when driving over bumps and dirt roads. And increase range to 400 miles would be great!!

Love this car. Good range. Responsive.

This is my second Kona EV. I had an accident in the first and I wanted the same car. If I could have afforded it I would have gone with the ionic 5 but this car was a good compromise. I do wish I'd gotten the next level up though as it has some features that I am missing in this one. Over all I love owning an EV. I've had this one for two years and had one service, which was free and just a tire rotation. If you are coming from the gas world you will be very happy with the lack of maintenance. The range is good though I find the miles listed are not completely accurate. For example I regularly make a trip to see my family which is a roundtrip total of 154 miles. The range given when I start is about 300mi. I get back with approximately 80miles of range listed. So there's a difference there of about 66 miles (give or take short drives while there visiting, maybe 5 miles or so tops). If I was taking a road trip I would plan my stops accordingly.

A Starter with some features

Hyundai NA (HBA) was running an ad when we were shopping EV’s January 2024. Besides the good looking ad, there was 250kwh of free charging on Electrify America (EA) network. This attracted us not only the free charging but the pricing strategy from HNA. Overall the buying experience was good from the dealer, the free charging was setup, and managed to use it twice. Then without notice the charging was taken away. Calls to HNA and EA were met with denial. I would caution any buyer if HNA offers a seemingly bait and switch tactic to attract buyers. There also a reason the price point can be made with omission of options.

Best Car I've Ever Owned

I have never been happier with a car purchase than I am with my Kona EV. Every issue that has arisen has been the tiniest of complaints (e.g., I wish the driver's seat slid back an extra inch or two for my legs, and I wish it had automatic walk-away locks) that really don't take away any of the joy I have in owning and driving this vehicle. It handles like a dream, quick, responsive, and fits 4 full-sized adults comfortably.

Our second Kona

There isn't much about this vehicle I don't like. Decent range (although our 2021 had better range). It's comfortable. Nice to drive. And great safety features. We've had issues with the app and Bluelink. And I wish there was an actual storage box under the middle arm rest and not just empty space.

First experience with an electric car (so I can't compare to others)

As with all new cars, this one does not accomodate a normal upright seated posture; they are all only geared for severe slouching. I have to use lumbar supports, in addition to the "lumbar cushion" in the chair (doesn't get anywhere close to my lumbar area). If you don't slouch, you already have encountered this problem. The most notable bad thing about the car, though, is that the rear view camera does not automatically go off when the car is put in drive, and if a car is approaching you from behind, it will BRAKE and potentially result in an accident. My understanding is that this is not specific to this vehicle, but it is a DRAMATIC safety error. I have mentioned it at the dealer but I doubt they even mentioned it to the manufacturer.
