Overview

The 2025 Hyundai Kona Electric is a small battery-powered SUV and the South Korean brand's most affordable EV. Fully redesigned in 2024, the Kona Electric boasts sharp styling and impressive range when equipped with the top battery-and-motor combo. So fresh off its introduction, the Kona Electric carries over for 2025 with few changes, the most notable being the addition of the sporty-looking N Line trim to the lineup.

Competitors to Consider

The Kona Electric has a corporate cousin, the Kia Niro EV. These two models are very similar in what they offer in range, features and interior space, and it's certainly worth cross-shopping both. We also like the new Chevrolet Equinox EV. It's loaded with tech features and it offers all-wheel drive, which is something you can't get on the Kona Electric.

Compare all trims

We'd go with the SEL trim since it's the cheapest way to get the more powerful and longer-range electric drivetrain. Going that route also gets you upscale features like heated front seats, a power-adjustable driver's seat and a leather steering wheel.
