Love my Kona!

The joy of never having to fuel up is amazing! Then there is practically no maintenance ever! The Kona is a pleasure to drive. It has plenty of power, plenty of room for groceries or lawn chairs, or luggage in the back.

Great lease value, nice car

Car is fun to drive, has all the features I need, we are delighted. The headlights on the base trim model are a bit underpowered, and I hope in the future they offer a larger, more family -size EV, this is tight for four people as a daily driver. But for the car it is, it's great value and quality.

Fun, zippy little car!

I have only had my new Kona EV for a month, but so far I am totally pleased with it. It is a very solid, fun to drive little car. I wanted a small and zippy car and the Kona is perfect. This is my second pure electric car. I am totally sold on the quiet, fast acceleration, and low maintenance of an all electric car. Particularly pleasing is getting over 300 miles per charge so far. Before my previous Bolt EV, I owned a Hyundai Santa Fe. I have been very impressed with both the value for the money and the reliability of Hyundai vehicles.

Great EV!

I'm very impressed with this EV. It's stylish, comfortable and fast. Everything operates as advertised. Well priced and with great battery range. It also has amazing acceleration and is very nimble. Remarkable interior size and nicely styled cloth seats. A good sized cargo area, plenty of space for groceries or sports equipment. This is our 6th electric vehicle and it ranks 2nd overall. Ranking: Audi E-tron, Hyundai Kona, Chevy Bolt, Chevy Volt, BMW i-3 and Ford C-Max.

Value EV that checks all the boxes

Impressed with the Fit, Features, Finish and Range of my Kona EV. I would be hard pressed to match its value with the other EVs currently available. This vehicle is affordable and has all the must have features/electronics expected in today's high tech EVs. The dealership experience was a plus.

Good range, nice car to drive

I bought the Hyundai Kona EV SEL and I've had it two weeks. I've had two other EVs and this is by far the best. The range seems to surpass the promised 258 miles. The build quality is solid, the suspension is firm and the car handles well. The brakes grab a low speeds. Overall, I'm impressed and happy with my purchase.

Best car I've ever owned

I love this car. It's comfortable and fun without being flashy. More important, it's super safe. This sounds like I'm making it up, but it's the literal truth that the very first time I had my family in the car, the front collision avoidance system kept us from slamming into a deer. It jumped out in front of my car, and the car slammed the brakes for me. My wife and I both got out of the car, expecting to see damage, but nothing. Suddenly, my wife had much less of an issue with the monthly payments, lol.

2021 Kona EV

Like safety features. Saved on car insurance because of them. To make driving an all electric vehicle feasible it must have a high driving range before requiring a battery recharge due to lack of charging stations. The Kona EV does this.

Fun car, great performance and range

We bought a Toyota Rav4 XSE a couple of years ago and the gas mileage has just gotten worse and worse and the dealer doesn't care--we are only getting 2/3rds or the rated mileage. Some of that may be due to short trips up and down hills from our home, so we decided to get the Kona for daily driving. The experience has been great, it's fun, great range (as good or better than rated despite our hilly surroundings) and the dealership made it so easy to get the EV incentives.

Absolutely love it!

The Hyundai Kona EV is amazingly stylish, fun to drive, and goes the distance I need. It has a price point that is affordable for anyone who wants to step into the electric market. The 270-mile range is fantastic, and even with running heat, and any of the other many functions the range doesn't fall much below 180-miles. You have to be willing to take thirty minutes at a supercharger when you are going long distances and plan accordingly, but that can be a fun part of the trip as well. It forces you to stop and have lunch or dinner when you are traveling, which is a nice break on a long trip.

Great car, but far from perfect.

Some inherent bugs. Brakes sometimes freeze, especially when in cruise control. Rear view camera should have birds eye view and the colors on the screen are confusing and inaccurate. Great mileage - better than advertised. Should have USB ports in rear seat.
