Hyundai has one of the best reputations when it comes to electric cars – it has a fair bit of experience after more years than most making them, and its models tend to be among the most efficient on the market.
The Hyundai Kona has long been an EV favourite, but the latest model answers all the criticisms that we – and owners – had of the old car. So now there’s more range, more tech, more quality, more style and more space. It’s a car we rate highly.
This week’s electric car deal of the week is for a Kona with the bigger of its two batteries. With 65kWh you’ll have a maximum claimed range of 319 miles and it’s now available through Leasing.com for just £228.35 per month on a two-year deal with a £3,040.20 up front payment. Mileage is limited to 5,000 miles per year, but up that to 8,000 (which is 1,000 miles a year more than the UK average) and you’ll only pay an extra £20 a month more.
The deal is for the entry-level Advance model, which is still nicely equipped with twin 12.3-inch screens for the driver display and infotainment, plus keyless entry and start, smart LED lights, cruise control, 17-inch alloy wheels and Vehicle to Load (V2L) technology that allows you to power anything with a three-pin plug from the car. What’s more, the cars on this deal come with the Comfort Pack as standard adding heated front & rear seats, heated steering wheel, privacy glass and a wireless phone charger.
