2020 Kona EV

Fun to drive, fuel efficient (EV), great sound system, good looking car especially the two-tone color (black and white). Exactly what I was looking for. Model I purchased also has cloth seats...I don't like leather.

Single car household with EV.

Excellent EV, fun to drive, good range. Installed a top to put skis and bikes. I've taken the car to skiing trips and to the wilderness areas. Cheap to operate, even when purchasing electricity the price is much lower than gasoline. I charge from a regular outlet, and borrow a level-2 charger from a neighbor once in a blue moon when I am driving a lot. I'm glad I don't have to visit gas stations. I'm glad I am not spewing NOX in my neighborhood. Live in a small town. Range is an issue for long multi-day trips. However, we are a single-vehicle household and with this car we satisfy 97% of our needs. (For the remaining 3% I just rented a car or borrowed from a relative).

Car runs great....

This car is a great little SUV... Driving the car is a lot of fun. The motor has plenty of power... Enough room for groceries... There seems to be enough leg room in the back seats. Those seats easily fold down for more space to carry big items..

Fantastic car, dealer experience not so much

Great car, except for the factory tires which did not have the grip for the amount of torque the car has (were replaced at 3000 miles). Dealer experience for routine maintenance is underwhelming. Since it still qualifies for FTC, this should be on everyone's short list for their first EV

Fun to drive

In 50 years of driving, the Kona Electric Ultimate is my favorite car - pushing aside my first love, an '83 Saab Turbo. Not only is it the most responsive car I have had, the one-pedal driving approach makes it the easiest, too. The Heads-Up Display is a great feature, condensing all crucial info right in front of me.

Best EV for price

Best EV in its class. Looks like a regular car, reliable electric drivetrain and no overcomplicated door handles or gimmicks. Range is also really good. I have seen up to 350 miles of range in the summer just driving around in the city. The warranty is also better than other manufacturers.

Fun to Drive

Fun to drive, nice looking car, easy to charge. I enjoy showing off this car to my friends. It fits in my garage where the electric outlet is nearby. Since I can plug it in to my household outlet, I don’t need a charging station. I top it off when it gets to 85% which charges overnight.

Lives up to its Reviews

Our KonaEV has exceeded all expectations. Great ride, smooth acceleration and nimble handling. Love passing gas stations and driving home to recharge overnight. I would say it doesn’t quite top-off at 260 miles on a full charge during cold months, closer to 240. But that was expected. Great commuter car.

A fun car hidden under a practical shell

Coming from a sporty hatchback I was nervous about switching to a car of this stature but the car quickly made me forget my concerns. No it doesn't look as sporty but it has the "go" when I need it. The technology and features on the car are light-years ahead of what I had and the infotainment screen beautiful and easy to use. The range with battery is amazing its great not having to go stand at a gas pump on cold winter days. I whole heartedly recommend this car.

2020 Kona EV is Awesome

I love the Kona EV! It's fun and easy to drive! I own the Ultimate which offers numerous thoughtful and convenient features. I can't say enough about the Kona. The $7500 tax credit alleviated the higher EV price point. After extensive research, I was determined to buy a Kona EV although I don't live in a green state. I located a Hyundai dealership online in Maryland selling to out of state customers. It was an excellent experience. It is a pleasure to own a Kona EV in alignment with Hyundai's commitment to the future of the environment.

Happy with my Kona EV

Happy with acceleration & steering response. I drive with confidence on freeways of Southern California, knowing I can safely accelerate as necessary when merging or changing lanes. And of course with an electric, there is no gasoline cost!

Love my Kona

I love driving my Kona electric. It handles beautifully, accelerates nicely and let’s me sit high enough to see easily. I prefer it to my husband’s Tesla - much easier to find the dashboard controls.

Great range and a pleasure to drive

This car far exceeded my expectations. It has an amazing range (much more than its EPA rating, especially in the summer). It is well designed and well built with quality components. This is my fourth EV (after 2 LEAFs and a Model 3), and it is by far the best I have owned.

Good small SUV EV

The Kona EV has great range, up to 300 miles, is comfortable, can carry 15 boxes when the rear seats are down, and car carry 5 passengers comfortably. The car is easy to drive, and the controls are easy to use.

Best EV I have owned

My Kona EV is everything I expected AND MORE. Love this car. Comfort and drivability are super. Outside noise is somewhat loud. Perhaps more insulation would elimnate some of the outside noise. Will Hyundai continue making this model?

Excellent choice in EV cars segment

I had a Nissan Leaf leased prior to this car. We loved it. Only issue was a limited driving range of 150 miles. So, when it was a time for that lease to up, we started looking at Hyundai Konv EV and Volkswagen ID.4. While ID.4 had more space and legroom, we felt that KONA EV was more suited for our needs. We have not regretted that decision a bit. KONA EV is a fantastic car with tons of features. Biggest surprise is the range of battery. We always get 300+ miles during local driving. On highway range seems to normally 260+ miles. In both cases that's over 258 miles of EPA stated range. We liked it so much that within a month of buying this car, we ended up buying another KONA EV. If you are in a EV market, consider this car. You won't be disappointed.

I’ll never go back to gas!

I was focused on the electric Kona because of a few things-first the price and it qualifies for federal tax rebate up to 7,500 if the vehicle qualifies) and the State rebate ($5000) and no sales tax-saved thousands here in NJ! In 2 years I spent $150 on in cabin filters and 2 tires were replaced after driving through road construction for weeks
