New Hyundai Kona HEV Review | Better Than A VW T-Roc?

[@deansawyer3575]

A great no nonsense enthusiastic review.

[@BuckleUpShow]

Thanks for watching, Dean, and we hope it was useful!

[@alexko40]

A Great Review overall. I liked it a lot especially the fact that you are doing a very detailed presentation of the cars reviewed. After that "i am following" you ... Keep up the good reviews. You are helping a lot..

[@BuckleUpShow]

Much appreciated! Thanks for watching!

[@deanlatimer2323]

Mine arrives in 2 weeks! Not this model because im allergic to red, but the top of the range ultimate hybrid. hes correct..just under 35 k.cant wait

[@BuckleUpShow]

Excellent choice, we hope you like it!

[@hovelad]

Great review. One of the best for this car I have seen.

[@BuckleUpShow]

Thank you! Hope it was useful 😊

[@forresg500]

I getting kona hybrid ultimate with lux pack in 2 days. Looking forward to getting!!!!!! Shame you only get head display on Ev now

[@BuckleUpShow]

Thanks for watching

[@scraverX]

In Australia the N-line gets a secondary contrast spoiler and we get a compact spare and jack in all trims.

[@BuckleUpShow]

Interesting! Good to know how trim levels are treated in other markets!

[@PersonManManManMan]

Great Video!!!!

[@BuckleUpShow]

Glad you enjoyed it Thanks for watching!

[@tedrik1346]

Disagree with your color opinion..that's cyber gray and beautiful..blends in nicely with the black cladding.

[@BuckleUpShow]

And that why most manufacturers offer more than one colour choice

[@tedrik1346]

@@BuckleUpShow agreed..I'd like to think I have better taste! Lol

[@RusselKanattuReneesh]

How does the light flash like that

[@BuckleUpShow]

Like what?

[@scraverX]

That's a quirk of 'filming' LED's with a digital camera.

[@markwilson7881]

The lower light position at the back is reminiscent of a PT cruiser! But overall styling looks great.

[@BuckleUpShow]

That's probably the only similarity I'd be able to draw between the styling of the two cars 😅

[@Rafiq07]

Odd title, but it's a good watch. Very well made review, easy to understand, and has plenty of useful information.

[@BuckleUpShow]

The puma is the best selling car in the segment, it becomes the defacto one to beat

[@TMoney76]

It’s a beautiful looking car. How does it stack up against the Ford Puma?

[@BuckleUpShow]

We've not had a Puma on the channel yet for a full review, but that should be a bit more fun to drive as it's slightly smaller. You can get the Kona with a 1.6 turbo 4-pot though which makes it pretty lively!

[@McCrazyFish]

I love this facelift of the Lamborghini Urus

[@BuckleUpShow]

Yes, the Italian team absolutely smashed this latest Lambo 😅

[@runawayronnie]

Commentator says the lights are nicely positioned. Eh? They're positioned at the extremities of the car, they replace the bumpers ! Looks to be an incredibly stupid position to me. Does any other manufacturer position their lights there? Certainly wouldn't want to park a Kona in your average UK supermarket car park. If I were Tesco, I'd start stocking up Kona front and rear light units. 😃

[@BuckleUpShow]

Most people are able to park their car in Tesco without crashing into things. That sounds like a ‘you’ issue.

[@-Vanity]

@@BuckleUpShow HAHAHAHA literally

[@briandempsey2696]

Obviously you have trouble parking

[@beautyofnature4890]

Great video very helpful..can you please tell me what is the average real world mpg

[@BuckleUpShow]

High 30s in mixed driving, 44 mpg if you're steady on the motorway

[@beautyofnature4890]

@BuckleUpShow that's really bad mpg if you saying about hybrid version..because I have honda jazz hybrid which is doing over 60 mpg

[@BuckleUpShow]

Ah apologies, we posted a review of the 1.6 turbo Kona on Sunday which those figures relate to

[@beautyofnature4890]

@BuckleUpShow no problem thank you for your reply

[@beautyofnature4890]

Do you have any idea ..how many miles per tank hyundai kona hybrid get ?

[@mokurt2529]

Troc feels more plush and imo has a better exterior design. Besides that kona wins on pretty much every aspect.

[@BuckleUpShow]

The T-Roc definitely has safer, more conventional, styling. If that floats your boat, there's not much argument, but you definitely can't deny the amount of kit you get as standard on the Kona is impressive!

[@meanwhileme4128]

Can I get this car on motability? Currently driving an MG hybrid its crap drinks fuel like nobody's business 30mpg and the electrics are crazy especially the Sat Nav which is often struck dumb and Radio finding stations is impossible avoid this MG crap heap!

[@meanwhileme4128]

And the ride is appalling on the MG!

@@BuckleUpShow Thank you very pleased I stumbled upon your excellent chanel, only in the MG insurance courtesy vehicle because Our Hyundai Ionic hybrid was stolen, which raises questions about security with Hyundai keyless vehicles in my mind including of course the Kona have youbany info on Hyundai security record, evidently stealing these vehicles is big issue in the USA!

[@BuckleUpShow]

Vehicles produced in the USA were produced without immobilisers for a couple of years towards the end of the 2010s. Thankfully this wasn't the case in the UK!

@@BuckleUpShow Didn't prevent my Ionic being stolen do you have info on Hyundai keyless being stolen in UK I would like a Kona but not if its likely to be stolen !
