Hyundai Kona EV

To compete with the growing number of electric vehicles hitting the market, Hyundai has swapped the Kona SUV’s gasoline engine for an electric motor and battery pack to create the Kona Electric. The swap has resulted in a compelling electric vehicle, with an engaging driving character, zippy performance, and up to 258 miles of all-electric driving range. Styling differences include a unique grille and wheels, but the Kona Electric’s unique looks still turns heads like the regular version. Rival EVs such as the Chevrolet Bolt, the Tesla Model 3, and Kia Niro EV offer similar functionality, but the Hyundai’s starting price and unbeatable warranty makes it one of the smarter choices in the segment, earning it an Editors’ Choice award.
