My mom's car has been super unreliable so I showed her the 2024 Kona. I explained all of the features to her and she's sold. We're going to give Hyundai time to work out the kinks and for the exact spec my mom wants to be in stock near us. Our second hand car, an Armada Platinum, has a lot of the same features that the new Kona has (360° cam, heated/cooled seats, adaptive cruise control) but isn't practical for the short commutes my mom makes. It's mainly used for highway driving or long distances. At $33k for a Limited FWD, I think it's a good deal compared to some of the newer rivals such as the Chevy Trax or Honda HR-V. The Kona 1.6T doesn't have an underpowered 3 cylinder like a lot of new cars (Trax, Envista, Escape, Bronco Sport, etc.) My mom's car has a 270 horsepower 2.0 turbo 4 cylinder so it will be a significant drop in power but also weight. Some features people may consider gimmicks are Smart Parking Assist (a.k.a. smahtpahk), Highway Driving Assist, and the motion activated liftgate. Those things definitely come in handy when you least expect them to. In my general area, we have issues with people parking too close to our car so Smart Park will definitely come in handy.

Think Hyundai missed the chance to make this a really fun little crossover with RWD, or at least AWD with a rear torque bias. Of course all that would hurt the range (as would sticky tires) and for the most part make this thing not really road trip worthy. As a Texan the 258 mile range (assuming its driven in eco and the weather cooperates) simply isnt enough to inspire confidence taking it outside the city.

Don’t park your Hyundai Kona EV inside because it could catch fire Hyundai is recalling more than 80,000 EVs over battery fire concerns The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued a recall for 2019-2020 Hyundai Kona and 2020 Hyundai Ioniq electric vehicles after over a dozen battery fires were reported. The agency is also warning owners against parking their vehicles near their homes or any flammable structure. An electrical short in the Kona’s lithium-ion battery cells increases the risk of fire while parked, charging, and driving, NHTSA said, adding, “The safest place to park them is outside and away from homes and other structures.”

I've taken a Kona EV 8700 miles in 12 days worth of driving, covering as much as 1400 miles in one sitting. With an EV, the whole trip is just a bit slower, I think the "EV Penalty" is something like an additional 25-30% time on top of what the bare driving time would be. Though honestly, for what the Kona costs these days, the Ioniq 5 is a vastly superior vehicle in every possible way, and it drastically shortens charging times.

@@0hypnotoad0 I think once the infrastructure and technology matures most of the cons of EV ownership will go away, but I dont know if it will ever be physically possible to match the fill-up and go time of current ICE vehicles. The biggest issue (for me personally and millions of others) is the fact I bought a condo about 12 years ago and will have it paid off within 3 years...but I have no ownership of the covered parking I use, and I know ar least one neighbor has inquired about installing a charger in their parking space and it was denied. Charging at home overnight using your own electricity plan is the one perk of EV ownership I consider essential, and with housing costs in my area...selling my condo and moving to the burbs would be a money loss proposition. For that reason alone, EV ownership is not in my near future. Apartment dwellers are in an even bigger predicament...there is a chance I'll be able to install home charging in the future, but apartment dwellers will likely be out of luck.

Biggest Disadvantages when comparing to the Chevy Bolt 2022 competitor are: Slower level 2 charging at home is exactly 7.5 hours to 9hours and 15 minutes to go from 0% to 100% full , (so it's that much slower) and of course the 6 inches less rear leg room for your growing kids if you have any, or routine passengers in the backseat, where 6 inches less leg room is huge, but on the plus side for the KONA, you get a superior multilink rear suspension and and better efficiency potential with 4 levels of regenerative braking, which the 2022 BOLT and EUV BOLT don't offer. The KONA is significantly faster with more range on DC fast charging over the bolt, and you get a better remote Climate Control and other goodies for just 10.00 a month subscription VS the free Chevy Bolt remote app, which for the 2022 model years, should offer at least remote climate control.

That low speed whirring is a huge turn off for me. It should be possible to disable it. There are lots of quiet gas engine cars (Lexus ES350 for example) that you can't tell are running from outside the car, and have no pedestrian collisions on record. That pedestrian alert feature is such an annoying gimmick I would not consider buying one of these even if I had the ability and desire to do so otherwise. I could probably find the speaker and unplug it a la ABS sensor though, but I guarantee that isn't simple to get to and it might void the warranty and might even come back to haunt me for insurance purposes, even ones not related to pedestrian incidents.

I've got a Kona EV here in the UK a couple of months ago and there is a button to the left (or right in the UK) of the steering wheel to disable the virtual engine sound. You need to turn it off each time you start the car though. On mine the speaker for it is under the hood, it's even labelled "VESS" (Virtual Engine Sound System), although I can't see it in the video at 4:28 so maybe it's been moved in the newer Konas.

EVs of today have several limitations, like range and charging infrastructure, so Toyota probably wants to wait and iron those kinks out first. Toyota's first EV is likely to be a purpose-built EV, like the Prius is a purpose-built hybrid. The technology will then trickle down to other models. These days you can buy almost every Toyota car with a hybrid drivetrain.

Toyota was the first to prototype an EV with a 200 mile range in preferred conditions.The thing about Toyo is that it has always been hesitant to adopt new tech until proven reliable. Instead they release in iterations, small samples. Yeah, I know Toyo quality has been dropping, but that is their logic. ICE is tried and true, and the defacto tool of transport - having universal support. EV relies on mercantilism atm. Toyo will dip their toes eventually when the time is right.

I like the look of the pre-refresh better. I especially don’t like the body color fenders. The original designer made them matte gray for a reason. The new front is nice, but I still like the dimpled front better. I also like the previous wheels better too.

I think the pedestrian safety thing is WAY overblown with those EV noise makers. I have been around plenty of ICE cars that are so quiet when you're coasting down the street that you cant hear the engine at all. You hear the tires crunching road debris and the air movement around the car way before hearing the exhaust. Plus, there are plenty of hybrid electrics that turn off the engine randomly and they dont make these silly noises. I honestly think this whole noise maker thing was a ploy by ICE car makers to make people hate electric cars, because I have driven a couple where I couldnt stand the noise.

Well idk about that, it’s a matter of preference. Some people wanna hear their cars and some don’t. Think about it, with ICE cars some people add aftermarket exhaust (which is annoying to some) and other people prefer stock/quiet which is boring to some people. It really just depends on the person. But the noise certainly was not added to make people hate electric cars lol that’s absurd. Automakers are all putting in their bid to be a major player on the EV market and they wanna move units at all costs.

I would stay away from any Hyundai product like the plague.. In my experience the only thing worse than the reliability of Hyundai is the way Hyundai treats their customers. I own a 2017 Hyundai Sonata PHEV, which experienced hybrid system failure on i95 (nearly causing an accident) on Aug 31, 2021. Two months later, during which time the Hyundai dealer made two unsuccessful repair attempts, I picked up my car only to have Hybrid system failure occur for the third time before I even made it to the first traffic light. The service center then told me the car (under warranty) needs a new battery pack, which I have been waiting for over the past FIVE months. The car has been out of service for SEVEN months and Hyundai has refused all buyback attempts. I bought a new Rav4 Prime in Feb…..If I ever get my Hyundai back it will be sold…

The biggest differences between the SEL and the limited are going to be the heads up display, heated and ventilated front seats, heated steering wheel, full on navigation and leather. But with the state and federal taxes refund you could save anywhere between $5500-$10k with rebates

Don't buy the Limited and it's already less expensive. Electricity is much cheaper than gas, and the more gas prices go up the faster you will recoup any price disadvantage.
