Hyundai Kona Electric - Ep 10 - Pushing it hard in corners

[@SOPM2007]

I love how your speedometer becomes "transparent" when exceeding the speed limit ;-D Enjoyed that ride a lot!

[@BatteryLife]

I have no idea what you are talking about ;)

[@stalwarttony1384]

Yes true

[@joonapuro8055]

Remember to order the "youtuber" pack to have this feature :D

[@antiocoluca]

Da schehf? I was thinking, I wonder nowadays where is that dude that covered in flames so well. Did not expect this

[@theelectriccarchannel1497]

Man I want to test drive one of these cars when they become available in the USA. Thanks for sharing!

[@BatteryLife]

The Electric Car Channel It is awesome!

@@BatteryLife Hyundai Kona Electric has landed in North America last week, for our neighbours to the north. Heh.

[@scottstephenson9312]

Thanks for the great video. It reminds me how much I miss living in rural Germany. Clean, well-marked, and well-maintained roads, and zero trash at the roadside. I hope in ten months l you will get to test drive the new VW ID and make videos.

[@BatteryLife]

Scott Stephenson Thanks. I think the Neo will be a big deal.

[@oykkh29]

Battery Life i Will order the VW id

[@JasonPleaner]

I have been a Tesla Model 3 man through and through. But your videos are convincing me that I want a Kona! Can't wait to test drive one when the come to Australia.

[@BatteryLife]

Jason Pleaner Droving wise the Model 3 Dual Motor is way better. Charging and Infrastructure too. But expensive and I am not a fan of the only Tablet Control in the car. I love the Instrument cluster of the Kona.

[@plaw9999]

Sat in one yesterday. If you are 6 feet tall or more, you wont fit Frodo in the back seat behind you. too small, otherwise it's nice.

[@FutureSystem738]

Jason. Australia doesn’t get lane follow assist, (so no “poor man’s autopilot”) just the totally useless lane keep assist. The rear seat is also useless unless you have short people in the front. Finally, the car really struggles to get the power on the ground, and torque steer is horrible on any kind of uneven surface. Then of course there is charging network, and speed. The Model 3 is just streets ahead in so many ways.

[@plaw9999]

Don't think Hyundai will loan you anything again.

I can only be in a good mood of being with you, you laugh funny😂😂

[@BatteryLife]

Leo Hedegård Thank you!

[@THBakker69]

This is how I drive mine, when not using SCC

[@be236]

I like your extra written comments/notes in the video with corrections or other info after the driving video. Nice to read.

[@BatteryLife]

Glad you like it

[@be236]

@@BatteryLife so have you returned Kona Electric ? If so, do you miss it? Have you driven and compared it with a Nissan LEAF yet?

[@BatteryLife]

@@be236 I only had it for 3 days. The Leaf is ok, but Chademo plugs are rare here.

[@eugenedurnin8344]

Great video, in fact, another great video and thank you. I am interested in your observation that the car has winter tires on it. Where I live in Vancouver, Canada most cars coming new from a dealer are equipped with “All Season Tires” and many of these are also made for use on snow. Are the tires for the Kona summer and winter only. Thank you. Gene

[@BatteryLife]

Eugene Durnin Thank you. The Kona comes with only Summer tires. Winter tires are up to you. No M+S tires.

[@alexandreesquenet3736]

Say ok; it is ok ^^ Lol the guy doing auto stop ^^

[@matpat2636]

Can you confirm which winter tyres it's fitted with? Thanks. Fun video BTW

[@BatteryLife]

mat pat I mention this in my live stream video. Episode 00.

[@matpat2636]

@@BatteryLife Great. Thanks. I will look it up.

[@oykkh29]

Nice video chris. Will u order one?

[@BatteryLife]

arlandanights Sadly no, too much money.

[@klausnull5336]

Kann es sein dass die Leistung auf 130kW reduziert wird wenn der Akku nicht ganz voll ist ??

[@paulaxford6754]

Is regen kW indicated anywhere on the dash other than the bars indicator at the left of the speedo? How did you obtain the readout at the left?

[@BatteryLife]

Paul Axford In the instrument cluster there is only the Power/charge segment display. But in your middle screen (AVN) under EV, you can have a readout how much power everything in the car needs. Here in this video you can see it on the right indicated with a Minus.

[@paulaxford6754]

Battery Life thanks, see that screen. It seems to have quite a delay compared to the bar graph but at least gives a more precise idea of the regen of brake pedal vs fixed levels.

[@rubenmalaga]

[@martink.9442]

31 kWh. Mal den Akku kräftig durchgepustet.

[@BatteryLife]

Martin K. Geiler finde ich 145 KW Entnahme, über 400 Ampere bei dem Akku!

[@klausnull5336]

@@BatteryLife eigentlich müsste es doch bis 150kW gehen. Kann es sein dass ab 85% Akku die Leistung reduziert wird ?? bei 70% sind es nur noch 130kW. Kann das ?

The planet is fucked, there's no point in trying to save it. WE NEED A NEW ONE.
