Love my Hyundai EV

My first EV and it is much more than I expected. The quality & build is excellent. The power is instantaneous and has a range of over 300 miles on a full charge. It is the perfect commute and around town vehicle.

Best car I've ever owned or even driven
by Mattsburgh

I love this car and routinely get around 300 miles of range in local and city driving, about 225 on the highway. Have had zero issues in a year and a half since purchase and has needed no maintenance other than tire rotation. Electric is the way to go!

Love it - only minor complaint is that there is no dual climate control. Otherwise lots of nice features and conveniences. Excellent pickup and power.

Practical, fun to drive
by CPF5

The only cons are that the low resistance tires don't grip too well on wet roads, the back seat is tight, and the heater fan puts a significant drain on mileage. Everything else I love about the car. Since the back seat is mostly used by the dog and I use the heated seats rather than the fan, the cons are not a big deal. If you drive a lot, I recommend a 40 amp charger so you can charge overnight with no problem: 6 to 8 hours.

Such a fun little SUV!
by Becky D.

I am in love with my Kona! It has all the small vehicle feel with the SUV capability. The only thing I wish it had is a push button open for the cargo area. But there is nothing else I would change! This is excellent value for such a fun vehicle!!

electric cars are the future, this is my first
by peterb

I want to reduce my carbon impact, use less petrochemicals. this is my first electric. after a few days, I would say that this is positive. the 110 charging does take longer than I imagined it would.

Coolest Car I've Ever Owned
by PatriotsFan
from Rhode Island
on Wed Aug 21 2019
Kona EV has exceeded all my expectations with comfort, range, and technology. While it's EPA mileage is 258, I've been getting 300+ per charge (though that will go down in winter). Only complaint is lack of trunk room when back seats are up, but that's a small complaint compared to all the positives.

Impressive range and great power
by BlueKonaEV
from Lakeland, FL
on Sun Feb 16 2020
Bought my Kona Electric 6/28/2019 in Maryland and drove it down to Central Florida where I live. 7.5 months and 21500 miles later I'm still as impressed with the car and it's range as I was on the first day. I'm getting over 300 miles on a charge except for higher speed road trips.. I still get about 250 mile range at 70 mph.. Around town, range is closer to 330 miles. Power is impressive. All wheel drive would be great as it is hard to put all that torque on the road. After 21500 miles, I have not noticed any battery degradation.. I'm currently getting about 260 mile range at 80% charge.. I can say with certainty that I will never go back to an ICE daily driver..

Fun,sporty commuter car
by Hali in Cali
from Belmont Ca.
on Mon Apr 20 2020
Does exactly what i need for 50 miles daily commute.
Free charging at work, great torque for freeway merging.great mileage. Low center of gravity makes this little hatchback handle pretty well IMHO.
Rear seating is a bit cramped for those with a family which is not me.
She will run effortlessly at 90 mph. Zero vibration and a sweet mild jet engine sound.
My main attraction was lack of maintenance. Tire rotation at 6k. Gear box oil chang at somewhere in the 40 or 50k area ,about it.thats nice.no belts, emissions equipment, oil,filters etc.
The initia high purchase price will be offset with low maintenance costs.
