Exceptional electric performance.

The KONA Electric delivers exceptional electric performance and a generous driving range of up to 484 km. And when you do finally have to plug in, fast charging returns its battery from 10% to 80% state of charge in just 47 minutes. 1, 2

Performance

High power. Excellent range. Thrilling acceleration.

Nobody ever said that electric mobility had to be boring. Lightning-quick off the line thanks to 395 Nm of torque delivered by the all-electric powertrain, this sporty SUV is seriously fun to drive – accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in only 7.9 seconds. Available with two different powertrain versions, you can pick your power and preferred range: the 39.2 kWh battery with up to 305 km driving range. Or the 64 kWh version that delivers up to 484 km range on a single charge(1).

Just as there is a range of factors that affect the fuel efficiency of an internal combustion engine (ICE), the total electric driving range will be affected by the size of the battery, your driving style, the outside temperature, any passengers you are carrying and more.

      Adjustable regenerative braking.

      Braking is optimised to get the most out of the recuperative braking system, helping KONA Electric maintain a healthy state of charge (SOC). The driver can easily adjust the level of regenerative braking through the paddle shifters behind the steering wheel.
    2. Graphic illustrating the adjustable recuperative braking functionality in the Hyundai Kona Electric.

      Recuperative braking levels.

      Level 0: Recuperative braking is not in operation and the battery is not being charged. Level 1 to level 3: With each level higher, the car decelerates more using the electric motor, increasing the charging strength at the same time. The higher the level, the more the car slows and charges the battery when you take your foot off the accelerator.

        Safety

        Cutting-edge safety and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems.

        Because nothing’s more important than the safety of your loved ones, we gave the KONA Electric an upgrade. With Hyundai Smart Sense, our cutting-edge Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, it has been updated with the very latest safety and driving assist features for added peace of mind.

        1. Blind Spot Collision-avoidance Assist (BCA).

          Using two radar sensors in the lower rear bumper, the system warns you of traffic in the blind spot area. Should you set the turn indicator in such a situation, it will sound an acoustic alert and brake to prevent collision.

        2. Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA).

          When reversing out of areas with low visibility, the system not only warns the driver if vehicles approach from the side – it also applies the brakes automatically.

        3. Lane Following Assist (LFA).

          The KONA Electric features Lane Following Assist (LFA). When activated, it keeps the car centred in its lane at speeds between 0 and 200 km/h on highways and city streets.

        4. Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go (SCC w/ S&G).

          More safety and less stress. Maintains a set distance to the vehicle ahead, automatically reducing or increasing speed to a pre-set limit. In “stop & go” traffic, the set distance is maintained.

        5. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with pedestrian and cyclist detection (FCA).

          Sensing the road ahead with radar and a camera, the FCA system automatically brakes when it detects sudden braking by the car ahead, or pedestrians and bicycles on the road.

          Safe Exit Warning.

          This clever feature helps avoid accidents by detecting vehicles approaching from behind and displaying a warning in the cluster and outside mirror as well as sounding an audible warning.

          The KONA Electric remembers if the rear doors were opened before you drove off. When you finish your drive, a message then pops up in the cluster accompanied by a warning tone to check the rear seat.
        4. The Leading Vehicle Departure Alert (LVDA) of the Hyundai Kona Electric.

          Leading Vehicle Departure Alert (LVDA).

          This clever feature for city driving alerts the driver when the vehicle in front departs from an idle state, like at a stoplight or in a traffic jam.
