Explore the features of the new KONA Electric.
Exceptional electric performance.
The new 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(*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.

Electric driving technology.
The carefully matched components of the electric powertrain have been engineered to provide excellent driving characteristics and a practical everyday driving range. The specially designed platform enables a space-saving integration of the battery packs without compromising roominess.
Smart technology for intelligent driving.
Maximise your range while driving with KONA Electric’s regenerative braking systems which let you charge the battery by using the electric motor to slow the car.
-
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.
-
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.
-
1-paddle mode.
It is also possible to actively brake the car using the paddle shifter. Simply pull the left paddle shifter and hold. You can slow the car to a complete stop in this way without pressing the conventional brake pedal.
-
Hold.
Pull the left paddle shifter and hold to activate maximum strength recuperative braking. It is possible to stop the car in this way – without using the conventional brake pedal. Charging strength is the strongest in this mode.
-
Smart regenerative braking.
The smart regenerative braking system utilizes the on-board radar sensor to automatically control the level of recuperative braking to react to the traffic ahead. Additionally, it also detects if the KONA Electric is driving up or downhill and adjusts accordingly.
Charging
Charge fully over night or top up on the go.
Depending on your grid connection at home or the type of fast charging station you have access to, the new KONA Electric offers various possibilities and plug types for charging.

39.2 kWh battery.
For the 39.2 kWh battery pack, charging from 10-100% SOC when connected to a home wall box or public AC charging station, takes 4 h 20 min using the 10.5 kW triple phase on-board charger (OBC) and 6 h using the 7.2 kW single phase OBC.
-
Programmable charging.
The new KONA Electric’s advanced battery management system gives you complete control over when and how you want to charge it. Pick a time that best fits your schedule and budget, with clear overview of remaining charging time.
-
Charging time reservation.
A few taps is all it takes to save money. Use the Charging Time Reservation function on the centre screen to program start and stop charging times to make the most of off-peak electricity rates and wake up to a fully charged battery.
-
Charging limit.
Set a Charging Limit – for example 50% – to take advantage of a fast-charger station in the city for the drive home – and then fully charge the battery at home while you’re sleep to take advantage of low electricity rates at night.
Convenience
Practical and versatile.
The new KONA Electric is designed for maximum practicability and convenience: Take it for a trip and take advantage of the generous boot capacity of 332 litres. Or switch on the optional heated and ventilated seats for more comfort on the road. And clever features like a rear-view monitor and head-up display make getting there safer and less stressful.
