Kona is a blast to drive and super-economical

Love the size and features, a bit more road and vibration noise than my other car (Subaru Outback), but understandable based on its size. Best report I can provide is that I've had ZERO costs for maintenance (consisting of only rotating the tires) over the past two years of ownership and my estimated cost savings in gas is $750-$1,000 for that period of time.

Fun to Drive except in Winter

I love the Kona except in the snow. The front wheel drive does not give sufficient traction or control particular on even modest driveway inclines. I hope to at least partially address this issue by installing snow tires next winter. On value for money, the (since discontinued) federal $7,500 rebate made the purchase decision easy to make. The failure of the energy control system was disappointed and hard to get identified and rectified though it was fixed after months of waiting.

Fun and economical car, poor customer support

I love my Kona's zippy acceleration, one-pedal driving and missing ICE. However, I've found the customer support poor.

A good EV for the money

Given the price I paid, for a KONA SEL EV, this car was a very good purchase. This car needs a more efficient heat pump. It works OK, but it eats really eats kWh. Hyundai should silence the alert noise when the vehicle is stopped. It would be so nice if the cabin noise generated by the car was minimized or better yet, was eliminated. I've been to the dealer with problems, and I think the dealer's diagnostic capability needs improvement. Too bad Hyundai has dropped the KONA EV except for the base model, which has a minuscule battery. I hate the retro look on the Ioniq5 so I wouldn't buy one.

Great Car, a couple of bugs

Overall, I really like the car. There are a couple of things I think could be improved, particularly when it comes to warnings in the car.

Kona EV review

I like the car itself. However, I have had issues with the car since I bought even going back to engineering with no solution except drop it off for over 6 months. If I wanted to buy a car and leave it at a dealership that doesnt do any work I would've went somewhere else. My car still reads -56 days and counting a service is due i have to reset my maint clock after every service. My car wont start if I schedule the climate control and some other issues.

Love it so far.

The Kona EV is smooth and efficient. We loved our previous gas-powered Kona, and this EV is just as good with easy charging and super quiet.

Reliable and Cost Effective

An excellent first choice for those who are new to electric vehicles and/or are looking for a reliable, but budget friendly car.

Love the ride! EV is a game changer

Once you get past the range anxiety and start to understand how to manage miles and charging, EV is a game changer! I love the ride. CarPlay is mandatory for me and works well. The key fob is enormous! It’s like one of the restroom keys at a truck stop with a 2x4 screwed to it. For an efficient company, that’s an oversight.

Kona Electric is a fun, stylish, versatile vehicle

The latest iteration of the Hyundai Kona Electric manages to improve on the driving experience of the older model in almost every way. It's easy to drive with extremely useful, user-friendly cockpit software that keeps the driver informed without being obtrusive or annoying. It keeps the powerful torque of the older Kona Electric, but softens the acceleration curve enough to avoid the spin-outs that would happen with the older Kona. The small increases in outer dimensions yield a noticeably larger interior cabin and trunk area, including a small front-trunk area best for things like battery jumpers and the free adapter for Tesla chargers that Hyundai shipped to all Kona owners. The only downside is that the older Kona handled like an SUV-shaped car, while the newer Kona is definitely a small SUV, feeling top-heavier and a little less nimble than before. It still handles very nicely and the low center of gravity makes it feel extremely stable; drivers unfamiliar with the older Kona probably won't know what they're missing. Overall, it's a wonderful vehicle that I have enjoyed driving in the 1+ years I've had it.
