Hyundai Kona Electric Long-Term Review: The Final Verdict

Our time with the Hyundai Kona Electric has finally come to an end and in this video journalist Olek Novak provides his final verdict after six months and 5000km at the wheel.

In today’s view, Olek takes us through his final two hits and misses from his time with the car, focusing on issues such as the speed limit assistance and the driving experience.

The entry-level Kona starts at $54,000 before on-road costs putting it on the more affordable end of the EV spectrum but making it a very expensive Hyundai small SUV.

Competing with cheap Chinese offerings like the more affordable BYD Atto 3 and also more mainstream options like the Tesla Model Y, can the Kona make a case for itself in Australia?
