What is the range of the 2025 Hyundai Kona Electric?
The Hyundai Kona Electric offers EPA-estimated range between 200 and 261 miles, depending on trim and wheel size. Real-world highway range at 70 mph is typically 10–15% lower than the EPA rating, and cold-weather range can drop an additional 20–30% in sub-freezing temperatures.
How fast does the Hyundai Kona Electric accelerate 0-60 mph?
The Hyundai Kona Electric hits 0-60 mph in 7 to 8.5 seconds depending on configuration — 7 seconds is the quickest of the 3 configurations we track.
How long does the Hyundai Kona Electric take to DC fast-charge?
On a DC fast charger, the Hyundai Kona Electric goes from 10% to 80% in roughly 43 minutes. At home on a Level 2 charger (240V), a full charge takes about 5–8 hours, depending on the trim. A standard 120V outlet (Level 1) adds only about 5 miles of range an hour (from EPA efficiency), so it suits overnight top-ups rather than full charges.
Is the Hyundai Kona Electric available with all-wheel drive?
Not in our data — all 3 Hyundai Kona Electric configurations we track use front-wheel drive, and we don't list an all-wheel-drive version.
How many people does the Hyundai Kona Electric seat?
The Hyundai Kona Electric seats 5.
Does the 2025 Hyundai Kona Electric qualify for a federal EV tax credit?
No. The federal Clean Vehicle Credit (IRC §30D) expired on September 30, 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act — no new EVs purchased on or after October 1, 2025 qualify. State incentives remain available: see our /deals page for current rebates in California, Maine, Colorado, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and other states. The Section 30C EV Charger Tax Credit (for home charger installation) expired June 30, 2026 — if your charger was placed in service on or before that date, you can still claim it (30% up to $1,000) on your 2026 return via IRS Form 8911.
How long will the Hyundai Kona Electric battery last?
Real-world data from EV fleets suggests modern lithium-ion EV batteries (2020+) retain roughly 85–90% of their original capacity at 100,000 miles, above the 70% capacity floor in the Hyundai Kona Electric battery warranty, and 80–85% at 200,000 miles.
What is the Hyundai Kona Electric battery warranty?
The Hyundai Kona Electric battery warranty is 10 years / 100,000 miles, with a 70% capacity floor. It covers capacity loss below that floor, and the coverage transfers to later owners. Compare it with every other EV in our EV battery warranty rankings.
