PS ours has the 1.6 petrol engine carried over however the Turbo has been removed and replaced with an e-motor - not both eek apologies

Just discovered this channel, and you guys are fantastic to watch! I love the more human and down to Earth approach - a nice change from someone just reading out stats from a script for 10 minutes.

@PlanetautoUK 2 месяца назад

High praise indeed - thank you, we’ve a fun new Swift video coming out this evening with road adventure to follow, also please shout out the channel from the roof tops 😀 that way we can get more and more vehicles, have a relaxed day

@therealkrisjenner 8 месяцев назад

Very suave - I am quite a fan of this new design. I much prefer the body coloured side cladding on this N line compared to the other trims.

@PlanetautoUK 8 месяцев назад

Yes, it’s well appointed - and who doesn’t love light bars, hope alls good Kurtis

The Kona certainly seems to have grown up. Excellent road trip. I used to occasionally go to the British Library in Wetherby with work, but haven't been for over 25 years.

@PlanetautoUK 9 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoyed it, @Ambienfinity - keep an eye out for part two! Ooo, haven't been to the British Library - what's it like? *A

@@PlanetautoUK Oh the BL is worth a visit -- they used to keep all the newspapers there, huge place. Looking forward to Part 2! It seems like a nice smooth ride and a good mix of practicality and style -- I like the Mercedes-style digital instrument cluster, too.

We’ll add it to our road trip stops thank you Ambien 😀 yes it’s great they’ve kept functionality but made it modern.

Hyundai proving again how far they & Kia have upped the anti these past few years ! There's a price to pay literally for all the tech going in to new cars these days but it's taken the cars out of every day people's reach ! Most cars now are pcp or leasing deals but that's how life in general is heading. Great review of a what is another car Hyundai have brought to the market place to take on the bigger brands .thanks for that planet auto 🚘 🎉

@PlanetautoUK 9 месяцев назад

Sad thing is, everything’s more expensive now 😵‍💫😵‍💫 and yes, Hyundai and Kia have come out with some fantastic motors recently. Glad you enjoyed it, @davidmarshall5596 - part 2 coming soon. *A

Don’t you Brits understand that pcp deals you actually pay the full cost of a new vehicle for the time you have it plus a profit to the pcp provider. No free lunch

@George-iy8dd 6 месяцев назад

Excellent job as usual guys. Which is better, this or the Honda ZR-V?

@PlanetautoUK 6 месяцев назад

Thank you George, they’re very similar however weirdly the Honda is NCAP 4, looks wise both different but as pleading, Honda more traditional looks, I d say economy better with Kona, not that much in it though, as ZRV has Civic powertrain that’s a winner - both enjoyable to drive. Hope this helps

@xrhst0s2114 9 месяцев назад

Hello is it ok to drive it on highway 140kmh for long distances like 100km and how much the fuel consumption reaches when the battery is dried out?

@PlanetautoUK 9 месяцев назад

Sadly, we have no clue - we cannot drive that fast here! Up to 70mph - which is the legal limit in the UK - it did well (112/113kmh) however, you do expect it to be less economical at higher speeds though. It was perfectly fine long distance - likely, with no battery you could expect 35-40mpg and we got up to 75mpg at points travelling at 60-65mph (37-40kmh) Hope this helps - thank you, @xrhst0s2114 *A

Shame just as you said the tyre noise was noticeable you ended that part abruptly thus preventing the viewer from judging for themselves by listening without any commentary for a few seconds to the point you were making.

@PlanetautoUK 7 месяцев назад

We use professional Rode mics, it’s never an accurate representation - the only way to tell is for the viewers to experience it for themselves. This is why we voice it primarily.

@svcten 7 месяцев назад

I am a proud owner of the new Kona. Tyre noise, as you know, is variable in relation to the road surface. On a good surface, its as quiet as a mouse.
