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.

Lithium-ion polymer battery.

The Kona Electric’s lithium-ion polymer battery has a lower memory sensitivity and excellent charge efficiency compared to conventional batteries.

Electric motor.

The 64 kWh battery is paired with an electric motor which delivers 204 PS (150 kW). The 39.2 kWh battery comes with an electric motor delivering 136 PS (100 kW).

Performance

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 500 km range on a single charge.

Long range: 64KWH battery

Enjoy maximum power and range.

With the 64 kWh battery, you get a truly impressive range of up to 500 km* – and with a power output of 204 PS and 395 Nm of torque – plenty of oomph, too. And thanks to clever way the battery pack is integrated into the overall design, you don’t have to compromise on interior space.

This sporty SUV is seriously fun to drive. The 39.2 kWh battery version delivers a top speed of 155 km/h. – accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in only 9.9 seconds.

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.

Charge fully overnight or top up on the go

The new KONA Electric offers a range of charging options to suit your grid connection at home and the types of charging stations you have access to throughout the day.

You choose how to charge

Domestic charging cable

KONA Electric is equipped with an in-cable control box charging cable that you can plug right into a normal wall socket. This charging cable is intended for emergency use only.

Charging time to 10% to 100%:
39.2kWh battery: 17 hours / 64kWh battery: 28 hours

Home charging station

Many drivers of electric vehicles choose to have a wall-mounted charging point installed at home for faster charging vs. a normal ‘trickle charge’ wall socket. These units are fused independently from the household circuit.
POD Point is Hyundai’s preferred partner for domestic charge points, please contact local dealer for further details.

Charging time at 7.2kW:
39.2kWh battery: 6 hours / 64 kWh battery: 9 hours 15 minutes

Charging cable for AC charging
stations

The charging cable connects KONA Electric to public AC charging points. This cable can also be used to connect to a home wall box. Depending upon the service provider, public AC chargers can have
a range of outputs.

Rapid charging

For the fastest possible recharging, KONA Electric can be charged at direct current (DC) rapid charger stations.

Charging Time at 100kW (10% to 80% SOC):
39.2kWh battery: 47 mins/64kWh battery: 47 minutes

Charging Time at 50kW (10% to 80% SOC):
39.2kWh battery: 48 mins/64 kWh battery: 64 minutes

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.

Cutting-edge safety and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems

Nothing’s more important than the safety of your loved ones, so we gave the new KONA Electric an upgrade with advanced driver assistance features from Hyundai SmartSense.
 

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.

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.

Lane Following Assist (LFA).

The new 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Intelligent Speed Limit Warning (ISLW)

Recognises road speed signs and displays the speed limit in real time in both the navigation system display and instrument cluster.

ECall

eCall alerts rescue services and provides them with the car's location in the event of a serious accident. The system can also be deployed manually if required.

Rear Seat Alert.

The new 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.

Driver Attention Alert (DAA)

This standard feature has raised safety and convenience to a new level by continuously observing and analysing driving patterns. When a pattern of fatigue or distraction is identified, the DAA system gets the driver’s attention with an audible pop-up message suggesting a break.
