Just ordered my Kona Hybrid having test driven a few other hybrid cars this week. The Kona comes out tops for handling, comfort, included “extras” and fuel efficiency (on 20 to 25 mile runs, which will be typical for me).
I really hope I’m as happy with it when I get it.

Hi new to this forum. Managed to go look at the HEV Kona last Saturday and drove it away on the Wednesday. The exact spec and colour sitting in the show room. I absolutely love the car. It’s full of great gadget’s and safety features. The HUD is magic. Still getting my head around all of them but what a lot of car for the price.

Hi, I have had my EV Kona, which is 2 years old, for 2 weeks and I am loving it. I did so much research before deciding on this car. Looking forward to doing plenty of driving having recently retired and I am impressed by the spec and also the range of this car. It is also good to know this forum is there to answer any questions.

Hi,
now had my Kona HEV Premium for over a year.
Best car I have ever owned.
Sports mode is wickedly fast and hugs the road so well.
I agree with the amount of 'gadgets' the car has. Finding new things all the time.
The ONLY weakness for my car is it does not have Adaptive Cruise Control, yet it has Forward Collision Control.
Is it possible to upgrade the software to add Adaptive Cruise Control?

Just gone over the 1000 miles in ours and very pleased with it. I find all the alarms and other noises a bit overwhelming but nice to have the all-round safety it gives. It even tells me when the traffic in front has moved off, just in case I might have fallen asleep, lol. Getting 65 mpg around town according to the display but a manual check showed it to be 62 mpg.
