The second-generation Hyundai Kona has been 'taken to the next level', with multiple powertrain options and vastly improved practicality
The Kona EV will be offered with two powertrains: the Standard version has a 154bhp motor and 48.4kWh battery , while the Long Range model retains a 65.4kWh motor but with its output raised by 13bhp to 214bhp.

All three powertrain variants will be offered with an N Line trim featuring sporty styling elements – but there are currently no plans for a new version of the high-performance Kona N, with the firm instead focused on the forthcoming Ioniq 5 N.

The ICE and HEV versions will arrive in the coming months, with the Kona EV due to reach the UK in late summer.UK pricing and specifications have yet to be finalised, but it is understood petrol models will start from around £22,000, rising to around £35,000 for the EV.“The interior really shows what we mean by ‘upscale’.
