This is a great car if you are into EV

It has been very nice knowing our carbon footprint is so low. As long as you are willing to plan for long trips, this is a great car.

Kona SEL 2025 electric

General positive feedback. Missing modern capabilities like passenger seat electric adjustments, driver and passenger seat memory, heads up display, 360 deg camera view, electric trunk open/close, rear view mirror auto seam during night under exposure to headlights from the cars behind you, garage door remote, leather (or leather replacement) seats (instead of fabric). I know some of these features may be available on the next model up of the Kona electric, but there were none available and we could not place an order for it either. Could you open the system to accept orders and not force the customer to buy whatever the dealer has on the lot? The seats are not as comfortable as expected. An interesting and good feature I was not aware of is the automatic high beam/low beam control. The app has good features that work pretty well. It would be nice if you could make it such that the phone + the app be used as a key (to start the car and drive it). Oh, and the key is huge! Can we make smaller? Some of the evaluations below are too early to asses properly, I had the car only for 2 months so reliability, quality of build and service are too early to state a good opinion on.

A good choice for us

I suffer from peripheral neuropathy which makes driving a challenge. The single pedal driving and very responsive controls on this vehicle make a huge difference. Besides that, the car is plenty quick, comfortable and handles well. We chose to lease when we got the Kona to take advantage of the EV credit, which has since expired. A trouble-free year of motoring… color us happy!

Remarkably unremarkable!

Great speace, excellent quality, interior design is excellent Cost saving meaures -- hard plastic door cards, bare bones center console, no soft surfaces in any storage area -- are frustrating and lessen the experience.

Excellent Entry Level EV

This is a comfortable, efficient and peppy vehicle. Nice and roomy seating, easy to drive and operate, and great range. As a first time EV buyer, I found this vehicle to be easy to adjust to, once I learned how to charge it in the community and had a level two charger installed at home.

Hyundai EV Issue

Great vehicle. Did struggle at first w the BMS error codes. Only found in very few Hyundai EVs. Repairs with this can take quite some time.

Kona 2025 EV

Why haven't we had cars like this for years? It drives great and uses no gas. I plug it in when I get home from work and it's ready to go the next morning.

Overall Happy

I like it and happy with the choice. No real issues and I really like that it is electric. I just wish when fully charged it went further. Like 350 miles on a full charge.

The voice commands need to be more robust to provide dealers with a simpler training process for new customers and your new purchase setup.
