Different options for different lifestyles.
When you think about electrified vehicles (commonly referred to as EVs), you are probably thinking of a Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), an automobile that runs purely on electricity and uses a rechargeable battery to power an electric motor. Yet there are actually several types of electrified powertrains available on the market today, like those that combine an electric motor with a conventional internal combustion engine to create a Hybrid. Let’s begin with some terms that are frequently used when we talk about electrified powertrains:
Three main types of electrified vehicles are available on the market today: Battery Electric Vehicles, Hybrid Electric Vehicles, and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles. There also are mild hybrid vehicles and electrified vehicles powered by fuel cells. Hyundai is currently the only manufacturer to offer all major electrified powertrains in production cars.
Emission-free driving is possible with electric vehicles. Because their powertrains consist mainly of an electric motor and a battery, they don’t require much maintenance. Electric vehicles vary in range, but some batteries last for up to 500 km. You should have a charging station close by if you want to go fully-electric.

Fully-electric vehicles such as the Hyundai KONA Electric and IONIQ Electric don’t use any combustible fuel and driving is emissions-free. Because there is no clutch or gears, costly maintenance is reduced, and acceleration off the line is fast thanks to instant torque. That smooth and fast acceleration makes them a dynamic and exciting drive. Depending on the model, Hyundai offers electric vehicles with a reach from 311 to 484 km.
the following factors are important to you.
Fuel-efficiency is no longer enough for you. You want a car that doesn’t even need an exhaust pipe.
Commuting, shopping, and other short trips make up most of your overall driving time.
You are willing to install a charging station at home, have one on the street nearby, and/or at your place of employment.
A Hybrid, or Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), is equipped with both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor. Depending on the driving situation, cars like the KONA Hybrid switch seamlessly between the electric motor and the conventional engine, sometimes utilising both at the same time. A regenerative braking system charges the battery by using the electric motor to decelerate the vehicle and recuperate energy. This stored energy then powers the electric motor to support the engine in acceleration, reducing fuel consumption as well as CO2 emissions.
the following factors are important to you.
It’s better for the environment, it saves money at the petrol station. And it makes you feel good.
Whether you live in a rural area or take frequent road trips, the Hybrid gives you the flexibility you need.
The Hybrid battery charges automatically while you are driving. You will never have to plug it in anywhere.
The all-new KONA Hybrid uses electric power to help you go farther on a litre of petrol. All without you having to charge a battery or change your driving habits. Its petrol engine and electric motor work together to deliver excellent fuel economy and lower emissions.
the following factors are important to you.
Emissions are a major concern for you, and you want to do everything to reduce your carbon footprint.
Maybe you live in a rural area, or you frequently drive long distances without being able to charge.
