NEW 2024 Hyundai KONA Hybrid - What's different? Comparison with existing model.

[@AlanMacdonald-on6nd]

Kona is a massive improvement, fantastic review Tish

Impressive that they're finally starting to get the pronunciation correct in the UK. She correctly pronounces the name with two syllables and not three. Hyun-DAY is correct (not hi-un-dai). Well done and great review.

So there are new ones in the U.K. I have been watching Korean and Australian reviews in anticipation of this arriving. You actually covered what to me is an almost unique selling point - space for a spare wheel. So many cars assume nobody gets a puncture these days. Although it rarely happens the last time it did for me it caused a 3 hour delay while the car was transported to a tyre centre on a recovery vehicle. That happened mid day on a weekday. Imagine getting a bad puncture at 22:00 on a Sunday. One comment about the video. We know what the old Kona is like. There is a 2019 reg one for £15K in the car dealer next to work if I want to look at one. The new one seems to be a big improvement without anything being worse. I recently watched a review of the Volvo EX30. Lots of people said they were interested until they saw the Tesla like dashboard.

but shouldn't you be comparing N-line with N-line... that's a bit unfair!

[@stephen8604]

Did you notice how opening the older hatch was just as effortless and opened faster than the electric one on the new model?

[@scraverX]

In Australia you don’t need to ‘spec up’ to get the spare wheel. Sure it’s a compact spare but it’s there.

[@hermesliteratus882]

Tish is everywhere on every EV channel, very impressive.

What's her OF?

[@wendyhopkins2902]

As a owner of the mk1 Kona , it was to much of a wait for the mk 2 version, so my next new car is the Kia Ev 😊 Niro

[@DJAYPAZ]

I just looked at the estimated wait times the hybrid in Australia. It’s 5 months. That’s too long.

[@sachah2400]

Niro hybrid in Australia is 10k overpriced, nice car but slow sales due to its price.

[@DJAYPAZ]

@@sachah2400 It is the same with Honda, about $10K over priced for their competing hybrid.

[@Dreadpirateflappy]

@@DJAYPAZ I was told up to 8 months when I enquired. just insane.

[@DJAYPAZ]

@@Dreadpirateflappy Thankf for replying. That’s nuts.

[@conogrady9254]

I kneeded to see this...another holesome video. Thanks Tish!❤🤭😉😏

[@LiamLane]

Does the electric booth come with the top automatic spec

[@suxaryk]

Cupra formentor 1.5 vs kona 2024 1.6 ?

[@Reddylion]

Hyundai 👍

[@sansabark]

4355 mm long. If only there was a unit of length that was bigger than a millimeter. 🤷‍♂️

[@techpappee]

What's different- *everything* except the name. Hence new model 😉

[@forresg500]

I not sure about new front although i like other profiles of var and interior I thibk new car is way over priced I gpt top spec kona hybrid dec 22 for around 29k which is still expensive for size of car New top fpec now is aroubd 37k!!!

[@MrDuncl]

I guess you are talking about some kind of $. Yes there is bound to be a premium for a brand new model and discounts on the old ones to clear them. I am seeing the same with the Toyota C-HR although it might be 2024 before the new ones are in showrooms.

[@frenkihunter7523]

1 major reason why you shouldn't buy a 2024 Kona. The reason is the weak 1.0 T-GDI engine, no hybrid. High consumption of over 11 liters/100 km during a test drive of 20 km around the city. 🤦‍♂ The "older model" Kona drove under 5 liters /100km. ✌👍. All other engines, especially with hybrid technology, are great for consumption. So for me, only hybrid!

Can't afford a new pair of jeans...???
