Great compact EV

We have really enjoyed our first year of driving the Kona EV. The car is fun to drive and has good safety features such as lane assist and blind spot monitoring. We charge the battery to 80% of capacity and get 280 miles of range. (220 or so in the winter)

Fast fun

This car is fun to drive. I have to remind myself to not be too obnoxious as I sprint past other cars. The perk of not having to deal with gas prices and lines right now is another thing I try not to crow about to less fortunate friends.

Would do it again in a heartbeat.

Fun and practical. Low operating cost. Comfortable and quiet. A promotion by Hyundai caused me to consider the KONA EV instead of a Subaru Outback. The availability of a lease was the deciding factor.

Love this car!

I love this vehicle!! This is my first electric vehicle. I thought I would be losing power and speed but I was very wrong. This car excellerates just as fast as other similar sized gas powered vehicles I have had before. It is quiet, smooth riding and roomy enough for my 2 large dogs!

I am a retired nurse

This car fits in our garage, our budget, and our parking on the street needs. 1 the service department at the dealership is across the bay, almost an hour away. that is an inconvenience is that the dealership and surface area is across the bay

I love this car!

I love my electric car, especially now when the gas prices are so crazy! It is very reliable, comfortable, and I enjoy driving it. I get many compliments on it. I like that there are no oil changes to worry about.

Great looking car and great for the environment

Love this car! We've had it for a year and it's been a great experience. We get a lot of compliments on how it sounds and what it looks like. Like any EV, you have to get used to planning for long trips on where you need to charge and when to stop. But for daily driving, it's the best. Def get a home charger if you can bc the trickle charge at home isn't ideal. It's not a huge con bc fast chargers are readily available but would ideally love to be able to charge at home quickly.

One of the best EVs out there!

The Hyundai Kona EV is one of the best EVs out in the market. Stylish, fun to drive, loads of features, comfort, practicality, and on top of it all, the acceleration is more then enough for a daily driver. Has all of the safety features that you would want, and they are very easy to turn off if you don’t. Small compact design, but still can hold 4 people comfortably, the back seats fold down, so you can carry a decent amount of items in the vehicle. I moved from one place to another, and all it took was couple trips in the Kona!! I am absolutely thrilled to have a Kona EV as my daily driver, and would recommend everyone to check it out, you would not be disappointed.

One of the Best!

The Kona EV is an easily overlooked gem. Small and peppy, it provides a great ride and excellent efficiency with a great interior and excellent technology. The stereo is great for the segment. The seats are top notch and the cooling feature works amazing. It’s a fun car to own and we enjoy driving it.

car is amazing, should have been around a hundred years ago

Do not understand how cars like this could have been overlooked..by now (the 1st electric cars are over a 120 years old) should be the only transportation out there..might have been fully solar powered by now and have batteries that would last for days,,but polluting the air and the oceans is more important

Awesome Purchase

The Kona EV is our favorite vehicle. We use it for local trips and it is a delight to use. I am so glad we jumped into the Electric Vehicle pool choosing the Hyundai Kona. It was the best choice for our family.

Love my Kona!

Perfect size for me and so fun to drive. Love the safety features and extras (cooling seats are the best!) Good range. With gas prices what they are these days, I have even more reasons to love my EV.

Love the car

I love the car and it has proved extremely reliable for the first year! No regrets. I am leasing the car and look forward to driving it as long as possible. With the newer vehicles coming out with more battery life 300 to 500 miles so far, I believe I am curious what will happen over the next 2 years with the Hyundai's. Also, sometimes I wish I had a CD player in the car :)

I love Jose (my Kona EV)/

I give Hyundai a 10 on everything. This is the first Hyundai I have owned after a lifetime of German cars. The quality is excellent and I have had ZERO problems. I give the company a lot of credit for designing and building a top-of-the-line car .

Overall a Great Vehicle

This really is a great car. The ultimate package has everything you'd want and more. And once you have some of those features; you won't want a vehicle without them. Only complaint is the stock Nexen tires are Horrible with a capital H. I replaced mine after the first road trip in the rain.

Great small car with a ton of pep!

The EV market is still relatively small and the affordable EV market is even smaller. The Kona EV is a great little car that looks great, drives well and has all the items you want/need in a new car.

Further than expected

This is a vehicle you fall in love to. The way it feels driving is amazing. It is very responsive. Quietness when you are in the interior. It is difficult to drive a different vehicle now. EV made possible having great power with economy and confotability.

My 2021 Electric Hyundai Kona

The Hyundai Kona Electric fits all our needs. Great for runs around town and good for road trips (we have done two). The interface the the phones (I have a Samsung, my Wife has an iPhone) works seamlessly when wired. Like all electric cars, it has great acceleration and the extra weight of the battery glues you to the road. Very comfortable seating. I would only fault its ride (short wheelbase-bouncy) and minimal storage behind the front seats.
