Honest John Awards 2019: Hyundai Kona Electric awarded EV of the Year
EV of the Year - Hyundai Kona Electric
Hyundai's electric Kona has taken the title of EV of the Year at the Honest John Awards 2019. With its impressive real-world range, affordable price tag and desirable crossover packaging, it's no surprise that Kona Electric has already sold out for the next 12 months. It's exceedingly popular with our readers, beating competition from the Jaguar I-Pace and Nissan Leaf.
Dan Powell, Managing Editor of HonestJohn.co.uk said: “The Hyundai Kona is a true electric game-changer. Sensibly priced, easy to drive and capable of covering up to 279-miles on a single charge, Hyundai has delivered the electric crossover that car buyers want. Over the past 12 months the Kona’s popularity has soared with our readers and powered its way to the top of electric car table.”
