  1. Kia Niro
    Hi all as title. I have a e-niro 2 on a lease which is up in august. We are looking at the new NIRO 4 vs the new shape KONA Ultimate. Underneath a very similar offer for obvious reasons. Just wondered if anyone has experience of both? The KONA seems to have a little more tech (3D parking...
  2. Hyundai Kona
    Hello everyone, In the next 30 days I'm due for a service and I've just booked it using Hyundai's online service. I own a 2020 Kona 64kw and it has just under 35k miles. I was shocked to see that the 40000 miles / 4 years service was £576.96 vs the 30000 miles / 3 year service at £86.98. Does...
  3. Hyundai Kona
    Hi all. I currently have my kona in having the charge flap replaced. I've been given a kia niro (old shape) while it's in and I'm aware it's basically the same but bigger. Since driving the niro, I've noticed the heating seems to be much warmer than in my kona. 19c in the kona doesn't...

    We've just returned from our road trip to Northern Spain and I thought it might be useful to share our experiences and pick out some of the lessons we learnt about charging in this part of Europe. For the record our car is a 2019 Hyundai Kona 64 Kw with 49k on the clock and a range of 250 miles...
  6. Hyundai Kona
    So my 8 month old Kona 150kW Premium 64kWh has been driving me mad due to the fact I cant rely on it to charge and be ready the next day. I have an Easee One home charge point, and several times over the last few months the charge failed, and either triped the breaker on the home point, or just...

    What do the OS,OSE,OSI mean for a KonaEV? Google doesn't help
  8. Hyundai Kona
    Thought it might be a good idea to make a thread where everyone can post updates they've found, info from dealers, and changes in the new model. At the minute I'm trying to find out whether those of us who are waiting, can update the colour when the list is released, since many of us have had...

    I have been reading loads and loads of recent posts about flat 12v battery problems. Someone - can't find the post - said that it needed only a small cheap 12V lead acid battery to "Jump" the flat battery to get the car started. (Sort of battery used in computer Uninterruptable Power Supplies)...
  10. Hyundai Kona
    I'm curious if anyone else out there is dealing with a Hyundai Kona that is a (potential) lemon and how they handled it. I purchased my 2019 Kona EV Ultimate new in Aug 2020. It has 8,300 miles on the odometer presently. During its two fast years, it has had the battery replaced twice (the...
  11. Hyundai Kona
    I've only had the Kona 5 weeks now and did our first long range trip over the past week. The car performed really well and averaged 4.9 miles per kw over a 550 mile trip with maybe half at 65mph on motorways and the rest A and B roads. Biut on Thursday a weird thing happened. I switched on...

    Yesterday I had a strange experience with the Soul (or maybe I'm going bananas...). On a long trip, done about 90 miles in very reasonable 1h30min, I park at a services for longish wait. I'm certain I glanced at the SOC and that was reading 62%, which is very much in line with my expectations...
  13. Hyundai Kona
    Hi, i have some issues regarding my Hyundai Kona MY2021. I’ve actually done 20.000 km, always charging below 80% (except for 4-5 times) and never discharging bellow 20%. I’ve only done 6-7 charges in DC, the rest in AC (5kW) and my SOH is 96,4%. I’ve not seen many Konas go below SOH 100% for...

    If your electric vehicle is a couple of years old you may need new tires. What tires should you put on your EV? Are there tires made for EVs? How will it affect the range of your EV? In this video (and in the description of the video) I give you the information that I found, let you know which...

    The Hyundai Kona Electric shares a lot of technology with the Kia Niro EV, but it is not exactly the direct cousin. The Hyundai Ioniq Electric is similar to the Niro EV in an important aspect, more than the Kona Electric is. If you want to find out why, as well as find out how the Ioniq compares...
  16. Kia Niro
    I like my Kia Niro EV (e-Niro in Europe) and it is a great car, but considering the price paid, the fact that Kia did not install hood struts is a bit strange; Hyundai did the same thing in the Kona and the Ioniq. In this episode I solve the problem in my Niro EV with hood struts that I bought...
  17. Hyundai Kona
    Hi, I've very recently bought a Kona and love my first electric car, however, it seems to make a strange noise up to just above 5mph as I accelerate. It's not the speaker. I've sent a video to the dealer and they have also had it in but say they can't hear anything. Is it me, or are they...

    Electric cars require very little maintenance as compared to gas cars, but did you know that you can save money by doing two really simple things yourself, at home, and have less of an impact on the environment? My Kia Niro EV, or e-Niro in Europe, makes it easy for me to show you how to replace...

    About to pull the trigger on a eNiro 4 for £430 a month over 48 months. I also have the option of a Kona Premium 64 for £420 but only 36 months, both on lease. Would you say these are good deals? The eNiro felt like a lot more car for the price but I am not sure if I should go for the lower...

    The Kia Niro EV has a weak point that has bothered me since purchasing the car on May 6th 2019, the reverse lights are useless. I found a solution and created this video to help others. If you have any questions, please let me know.
