Nimble with great range

Bought the 2021 ultimate edition of the Kona EV - I have been very satisfied with the day to day performance of the vehicle. The seats are comfortable, the audio system is pleasant and the driving range is more than what I was looking for.

Great little commuter!

I have yet to be displeased with my Kona. I wanted a great little electric commuter and I got a great little electric commuter. No complaints, failures or issues after 1 year! I know a lot of people with MUCH pricier cars who wish they could say the same.

Best Car

The Kona EV is such an amazing vehicle. It is so fun to drive. Very comfortable seating, love how it feels like you're driving an electric vehicle but isn't too techy that it's confusing. I've been getting anywhere from 280-315 miles on one charge (depending on how smoothly I drive it). Definitely test drive this car and you will fall in love!

Loving My Kona!

This car is the most fun, economical, and peppy car I've owned. It has excellent acceleration & the regenerative braking adds miles to your battery. Charging is simple and try PlugShare to identify where to charge ahead of time, but the system provides your charging options right on your screen.

I really like this car.

Electric car may not work for everyone but it really meets OUR needs. This is the best car I’ve ever driven. Gas is how much now? The convenience of plugging the car in when needed is great. We have done trips of 235 miles to a destination that has a charger available. Chargers are easy to find but require more planning than a gas car for a trip.

Best vehicle I have ever owned!

Super fun to drive and I save so much money on gas, love how fast it acceleration is on this ev, more power then other priced evs and mine goes 312 miles per charge! Great turn radius and because the vehicle weighs so much the drive is very solid even in windy conditions.

Great value in an EV

300 miles on a charge, very sporty and fun to drive, affordable (cost the same as a new Toyota RAV-4) but without having to pay for gas, oil changes, transmission repairs. Only costs pennies to charge at night in my garage and I'm not burning fossil fuels.

Excellent ride

Other than one serious reliability issue, my Kona ev has performed flawlessly. I love the nimble handling, and the efficiency of its engineering - from its range to its energy management to its cute looks.

Zippy City Car

This car is great to drive around town with the regen breaks most of the time you don't even have to break. Behind a slow car? You can press the accelerator pedal to easily pass them to get to your destination. Overall this car is awesome to save and not spend money on gas and to reduce your carbon footprint as well.

Hyuandi 2021 Kona EV

Overall i would give my experience with this car a 3 out of 5. I enjoyed driving the car and it is a good looking car but at the end of the day the unreliability and the time in the shop impacted my experience and my decision to purchase another Hyundai.

What a GREAT car

I was hesitant at getting an electric vehicle but I am SO GLAD I took the plunge and bought one. Not having to go to the gas station, wait in line, get out to pay and ALL the other things about that I don't have anymore. Gas prices are going thru the roof and my car costs me about 15 bucks in electricity each month. I charge is at home and am loving is!!!

Car is nice and fun to drive, but range is poor

The Hyundai Kona Electric is nice and fun to drive. It's quick and handles well. However, the range is very poor and nowhere near what is advertised. At full charge, the gauge says I should be getting 260-270 miles. This is the range that is advertised and what the dealership communicated. However, I'm getting closer to 160 miles for a full charge. Needless to say, it's very disappointing.

Great car

I've had many very good cars. 3 BMW 5-series, 2 Volvos, 3 Hondas, etc. but this is a truly interesting and excellent car to drive and feel good about driving. The published range is 250 miles per charge but in good weather 300 miles is likely. I do not have a high speed charger at home but just plug into a 110v outlet. There are high speed chargers free to the public within 1/2 mile of my house. We mostly use the car around town but my wife took it on a 180 mile round-trip. When she returned she still had another 90 miles available. When we travel more that a few hundred miles, we either fly, take a train or perhaps will just rent a car short term.

Kona

The car has a smooth ride, pick up is very good and not a problem getting on the highway. Definitely need a Level 2 charger at home as anything less would not be adequate. The sensors that keep you in lane are excellent

I love my Kona 100% Electric Car

I just plug it into my regular outlet to charge it. This is somewhat slow, but I don't drive the car everyday anyway. If I want faster charging, I plug it into my electric dryer outlet to charge it overnight.

Kona EV review

I feel the Kona EV gives you a lot compared to other full EV's out in the market. However there are some things that could use attention from Hyundai as the competition in the EV market is only getting tighter.

Fun car that's smart!

I really love my KONA electric. It's smart as the dickens and super easy to understand. It's agile, completely fun to drive and has a great range. I consistently get more mileage than the posted average. Very happy with my purchase.

Great car

This is the second Kona EV that we leased. That fact says that we like the car enough to continue to enjoy it. I would recommend it as the best overall ev package on the market. The only annoyance is a lack of a light in the glove box.
