Hyundai Kona Electric

The Hyundai Kona Electric is a compact electric SUV for city driving and shorter trips, sold in two trims, the GL and the GLS.

Its 39.2 kWh battery gives a claimed 305 km on the WLTP cycle, and it uses 15.0 kWh per 100 km by Laxmi Intercontinental's figure. It charges through a Type 2 AC inlet or a CCS2 DC fast-charging port in the nose. A 100 kW motor with 395 Nm of torque drives it through a single-speed gearbox, and paddles behind the steering wheel set how strongly regenerative braking slows the car and recharges the battery.

It is 4,205 mm long with a 5.3 m turning radius, so it slips through narrow lanes and turns tightly in car parks. Its boot holds 332 litres (VDA), or 1,114 litres with the 60:40 rear seats folded. Both trims have a rear camera with parking sensors and push-button gear selection; the GLS adds comfort features such as heated and ventilated front seats.

The Hyundai Kona Electric is distributed in Nepal by Laxmi Intercontinental, with prices starting at Rs. 59,96,000. Compare the trims in the variants table below.

Hyundai Kona Electric Pros & Cons

Pros

  • The 395 Nm of torque arrives instantly, so the car pulls strongly up steep hills from a standstill.
  • Paddles set how hard regenerative braking slows the car, saving the brakes and adding charge on long descents.
  • Both trims have hill-start assist, which holds the car on steep slopes while you move your foot to the accelerator.
  • The battery is covered for 8 years, protecting the costliest part of the car.
  • A CCS2 port takes DC fast charging, and a Type 2 inlet takes AC charging at home or on the road.

Cons

  • The 39.2 kWh battery is small, with a claimed 305 km WLTP, so longer trips need planned charging stops.
  • Rear legroom is 848 mm, so tall adults will feel cramped in the back on long drives.
  • The GL has no heated or ventilated seats, which only the GLS offers for hot and cold weather.
