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

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.

A blast to drive and great range

We absolutely LOVE our new Kona EV. It is so much fun to drive. My wife and I fight over who gets to drive it. The ride is smooth, but the acceleration is pulse-quickening. The range is excellent. The entertainment system is easy to use and sounds great. Lot's of great safety features, too. It is a sharp looking car. We always get asked about it by strangers in the parking lot.

The electric car the U.S. needs

Great car for the price point with the federal rebates. Quick and responsive with enough features to feel ultra modern. Hyundai's past track record with cars has not been that great. In fact when doing my research I had originally passed up the Kona EV. However after researching the ionic 5 and its reviews I gave hyundai a shoot and I am so glad I did. In fact I bought a his and hers for me and my wife and it's hard to drive our dino fuel truck now that we a accustomed to one pedal driving.

Sleek & Powerful

I was hoping to get this car in Minnesota, but they are not for sale here. By a stroke of luck I was able to obtain one from Planet Hyundai in Denver after someone backed out of a purchase! I had it delivered to Minneapolis and I absolutely love it! More powerful HP than the gasoline version and it makes no noise when activated. With the Federal Tax rebate of $7500, it was the same price as the gas version I had initially considered. I have not one complaint! I also love the iPhone app called Blue Link where I can remote control many settings.

Great electric car

Great little electric car. It is faster than my WRX! It is fun to drive, too. I like it has a 258 range and plug is in front of car to charge. The interior is comfortable and love the Android auto. I would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to buy an electric car.

Waited several years for an affordable ecar

I have been waiting for the market to begin saturating with ecars for over 5 years. I am a climate reality trained leader and know that fossil fuels lead directly to climate change. I support the move to clean energy and my money where my mouth is. I love this fun little zippy and affordable car.

Kona Review

We bought the Kona electric as a short term replacement car but really like it and plan on keeping it for a long time. It is not as flashy or as fast as my Ludicrous Performance Tesla Model S but it is still great compared to any ICE vehicle. The battery gauge is amazingly accurate. (Tesla and others are overly optimistic) Range is good. Charges with Electrify America or EV Go but mostly we use Level 2 in the garage.
