I haven't found any other reviews that mention braking as a problem. Is the stopping distance actually as long as Which? says? If so has it been improved in the 2020 model (since their review is for the older version)?However, should you need to do an emergency stop, the Kona Electric takes rather a long distance to come to a halt - fully 40.2 metres when stopping from 62mph. That's too long.
