2022 Hyundai Kona Electric Review: Long range Elite Trim | Australia's most efficient EV? |
|
The 2022 Hyundai Kona Electric is one of Australia’s most recognisable cars in electric vehicle form. This review covers the long range Elite model - so does it stack up well against the likes of BYD Atto 3, MG ZS EV, or Tesla Model 3? Price from $54,000 to $64,000 before on road costs, I cover how this compact SUV performs better than its petrol version, handling, fit and finish, and whether you should be taking a look at Hyundia’s Kona electric.
