I’m very happy with how the process went from my initial inquiry to after my car was delivered. Once I had made my selection online, I received a friendly phone call from Rory Turner, who was extremely knowledgeable about my car and the whole process, and he talked me through the necessary documents for the finance, etc. Rory sent regular updates on the progress of my application. It was an easy and pleasant experience. Great to deal with a real person!

Hyundai Kona Electric Hatchback
Download vehicle brochureThe Hyundai Kona is a popular compact crossover that’s available in a number of different guises, from a traditional-fuelled engine and a hybrid to a performance ‘N’ variant. But it’s the award-winning Kona Electric that really maximises efficiency, helping to drive-down your fuel bill.

Hyundai has been a highly regarded brand for many years now. It’s also navigating the road to electrification with apparent ease, with the likes of the impressive Ioniq 5 leading the way, and the sporty Ioniq 6 not far behind.
The larger electric SUV, the Ioniq 9, is also here. But there’s a smaller crossover that’s hoping not to be forgotten about: the Kona Electric.
It’s into its second generation now and has plenty going for it. Hyundai aims to attract those wanting something compact, agile, but also practical, without breaking the bank.
Petrol and hybrid models are offered too, but it’s the engineless one we’re interested in today. The Kona Electric first appeared around nine months after the petrol version’s initial launch in late 2017.
But when the second-generation model arrived in 2023, the electric version took priority – unlike the original, this has been designed from the ground up to be an electric car. So, is it any good?
