Kona EV review

Very happy with my purchase. I love the car and I love Hyundai's. My one issue is the adaptive cruise control. I purchased the convenience package hoping to use it and it's not available. Other than that I have no issues with the car

Kina EV 2022

Car looks great. Driving range is okay but would have been better if improved to the 300miles mark. Interior is okay but a lot of plastic. Easy to connect through bluetooth but sometimes apple play fails.

Good little city commuter

Horrible EV sound up to 20 mph. It's particularly irritating because in tight city driving it's always on. It's a whirring sound that can bring on a headache. Change the sound please or I will unplug it.

Fine

I just wanted the battery to have more range and be taken more seriously in the design. A range of 400 should be what is done and a swap should happen. Wireless Apple CarPlay also would be nice and a simple add on to get done.

Nice enough vehicle.

I'm happy with the vehicle. It has all the safety features I care for. It sits low enough for me wife to easily get in and out of (she's confined to a wheelchair. I can fit my upright bass in the car with no problem.

Mostly Awesome

Overall I love the car and I love driving it. It is great for city traffic! I wish the system had less bugs and the starting battery wasn't an issue. I would like to continue leasing with Hyundai but I definitely need to change vehicles.

good car

save money on gas, good drive, very quiet, Had sports car mode which is fun when you need some power, but the battery is broken in one year mark, that was so sad, the worse thing is the dealer took long time to find out what is the problem.

Fun to drive

I really like my Kona ev. It’s fun to drive, easy to charge, and comfortable. I would have given it 5 stars if it would have come equipped with certain features that my previous car had, but they weren’t available in either trim. They weren’t deal breakers, but would have been nice

Great drive, responsive and quick, excellent range

This is one of the best electric vehicles for the price and range. Somewhat short on storage space and Headroom, but super Zippy and responsive with excellent range. Great safety and driving features.

Kona is a very good economical car

Bought because i wanted to relive myself of gas vehicles for cost savings. Very happy with vehicle and it has lots of great qualities. Had to get it above msrp but felt it worthwhile given CA gas prices.

Excellent commuter

Great vehicle to get around the city. However, climate control affects travel range, unstable initial forced acceleration wobbles side to side. Does not compute charging stations distance and % if trying to go on a very long trip.

Drives fantastic but software and ports buggy

Purely from a driving standpoint, this car is 5 stars. Rear leg/foot room is bad and bluelink/media/ports do not always or never work (wireless charging). It struggles to deal with more than one phone connected to it. But as a single driver commuter car, especially if some of the roads demand changes in speed and cornering, this car is perfect.

Very good vehicle, lacks basic amenities available on most “top of the line” vehicles, which the limited edition is.

Fun to drive. Good leg and head room. Decent storage space. Great design. Lacks basic amenities such as passenger side electronic seat adjustments, auto tailgate functions, and driver setting memory.

A zippy car with great EV range and handling at an affordable price

This car is fun to drive, and is one the most affordable EV options while still having a great range. The Interior space is a bit cramped, and you can tell it was designed to be a gas car and ported over to EV, but it works great and is a great value for the money.

car is tiny, has no spare tire and doesnt charge very fast at public stations.

First of all, the car is way small and cant fit a full sized adult in that back seat. The trunk cannt fit a Bob Stroller without putting the seats down. not enough room for a car seat behind either front seat and actually sit in the front comfortably. THERE IS NO SPARE TIRE! A SPARE TIRE CANT FIT IN THE TRUNK OF THE EV MODEL.

Charging Wires Not Wired Correctly

It's important to have working charging in an electric car. Ours has been to the dealership twice to fix it. Even though it's free, Hyundai doesn't offer loaner cars so it leaves us without a car. Very frustrating.

Wonderful vehicle... but broke down at 1200 miles.

I purchased a brand new 2022 Kona Electric in May 2022. I had a new job that would require a lot of driving, and figured it would be smart to go fully electric, while I wanted an SUV for my family. At 2 months, and less than 1500 miles, I got a notification telling me to "CHECK ELECTRIC VEHICLE SYSTEM." I brought it into a dealership, where they did not seem to have any idea how to handle the issue. It took them almost two weeks to finally decide - the vehicle needed a brand new battery. However, the batteries are on a national backorder, and they don't know when I'll be able to get a new one. So now, despite leveraging my financial future for a brand new Hyundai, I am stuck paying for gas, driving a vehicle that doesn't suit my family, with no estimate on when I might be able to get that new car back. And when I do get it back, who knows how long it will run for this time, before requiring service again. Service that Hyundai doesn't seem to yet be equipped to provide. While driving it, I loved it. Excellent vehicle, safe, smooth, incredible comfortable. But unfortunately, I can't recommend it to anyone, and had to warn other potential buyers - UNTIL HYUNDAI SOLVES ITS BATTERY ISSUES, DO NOT INVEST IN THIS VEHICLE. Worth noting as well - Hyundai boasts world class customer care. They have great *systems* in place for customer care - I immediately got a callback, and a reference number. But past that point, it's VERY difficult to get in touch with them.

After 2 weeks of buying a brand new car it broke

After 1000 miles and 3 weeks of buying a new Kona electric , I had to take it for repair of the electric system , lots of resistance to provide a loaner ( due to covid ), it is almost a week and still did not hear from the dealer , I called once , they don’t know what is wrong yet. Don’t buy Hyundai ! I thought they are reliable cars, but I regret it.
