Now the version that we've got here is the Premium SE version that means it is the top of the range. It can do up to 279-miles! Which is a ridiculous amount on 1 full charge and it's got loads of really quite fantastic features to make driving just really quite enjoyable. However, just before we get into the interior. Let's have a look at how Hyundai have demonstrated that they've thought very clearly about making this vehicle fit together. Nothing feels clunky or out of place. For example the charging port is located very seamlessly within the front section of the bonnet. Even here at the back of the KONA where most vehicles would be more than happy to whack something on and go ah that would do. Hyundai have really thought about this and added in a wrap around tail light not to mention these tinted rear-window sections.

So here we are inside the electric car and I have to say it's fantastic! It's everything I look for inside a modern vehicle. it's comfortable, luxurious but it's also very clear and very functional. For example we've got actual physical buttons on the side of the screen. That's a really nice touch because it gives you a tactile response and it means that you're not worrying about whether or not you've actually clicked on something. Then moving down we've got this very stylish very sleek centre console storage unit which reveals a USB and AUX input as well as a small wireless charging plate for your smartphone. That is a fantastic touch from Hyundai because it means that it also gives you the freedom to move around and not worry about whether or not you've changed your phone.

Then moving slightly back from that. We have a very well sized armrest storage units which could hold, I don't know, your sunglasses a bottle of water maybe a camera for example if you go on holiday. So all in all a fantastic sort of front entertainment feature unit.

But that isn't where all of the useful helpful tech stops. In fact, far from it this vehicle has a tyre pressure monitoring system to tell you the individual tyre pressure of each tyre. Not only that it's got a reversing camera. And not to mention a really really intuitive touch screen display system with Apple car play Android Auto. So that you can connect your phone and see your maps and your music as you're going along as if it was your phone. And let's not forget that all of our tech doesn't compromise anything in the back. We've still got plenty of leg room here as well as fold down seats so that your boot space can be made that little bit larger.

All in all then I think that the KONA Electric is a very impressive vehicle. With it's really quite good looks it's attention to detail and serious practicality. I mean 279-mile range, that's fantastic! I genuinely don't think that there are very many other cars on the market which would give you so much value for money.

Anyway, that's it from me.

I hope you enjoyed this video. Make sure to get in contact with our guys at Howards Hyundai. They are really friendly and we would love to have you down at our showroom so you can test drive this awesome car.

I'll see you guys soon.

Take care.

Goodbye.

  • Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

    We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

    Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

    Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.

    All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
