Either you're joking, or I'm missing something. I thought this was the full electric version, not petrol, no exhaust, resonator, air filters, etc. Having said that, removing any of that stuff is generally annoying to others and has little performance gains so ...
This car is so much faster accelerating than spec. Unbelievable. Its nearly as fast as the 2022 tesla M 2 sr plus. This was testes with 6.5 sec. kona is a beast looking like a toy.
@@digisuboob no there shouldn’t. It burned of half its tires just trying to move itself away. People who buy this arent gonna care of you can turn off TC
you no nothing about the people buying this car. dont assume you know anything about anyone.. also we have an entire racing series out of hyundai excels. every car should have all its available features enabled, as the buyer is entitled to it.
Yea and an electric sedan can get to 100kmph faster than most super cars. It’s electric, hardly a fair comparison against petrol cars. Not to mention it costs almost 20k more
@@cheez1012 i used that as an example that the traction control works very well given its propensity to fry its tyres with traction off. Your comment isnt really correct. Also the Leaf with its air-cooled battery pack is a massive fail for Australia.
@@user-vk4vd7vr5t And your vague comment sounds very off topic without the explanation that I assumed you would give and did with your second reply. And I don't really see how my comment is "incorrect" either. I was just stating what I saw in the video. I don't see how the air-cooled battery pack is a fail, and I don't live in Australia to see how it's a fail either. I see more Tesla's on fire than Nissan Leaf's here in America, so I again, don't see a problem with the air-cooled battery pack.
@@cheez1012 how is it off topic? The proof that the traction control works fine is that it goes from 0-100kmh in a shade under 7 secs. That means the traction control works well. How is that off topic? Nissan Leaf battery cell failures in Australia are well documented, as are the outrageous costs for replacing the battery packs and Nissan AUs complete disregard for consumers and not warranting failures during the warranty period. You are a fool to choose a Leaf over any other EV
Exciting stuff starts at 3:04
3:26
🤯 OMG....How this EV burnout like that!!!
Ikr it’s awesome hahah
TORQUE
It's because he turned off traction control
Man this is the only reason I would buy a Kona. Now I have a Kia Sportage 2023 MY and it's great. But less fun.
Love the wheelspin at "kickdown"
@Brian Lee For me it's the opposite actually, the front is decent the rear end looks like it's cramped
I drove the 100kw variant of the KONA - it manages to wheelspin even when I floor it during roll. This 400nm torque figure is absolute mental.
4:32 sounded like the wails of someone being impaled
Need a aftermarket exhaust and will sound great im sure and a resonator delete too
Take one of the headlights out to feed air into the aftermarket sports pod filter

@@petermorgan6036 the joke went way over your head champ
@@petermorgan6036 😆
Oh my god that wheelspin with traction control off was hilarious 😂😂😂😂
It's the typical expectation when you piss a Karen off hahaha !
At 4:32 the car makes a great impression of a steam locomotive pulling into station.
lmao 🤣
The fact that this car performs so well even tho the chassie is from a petrol platform is crazy.
Good to see the 2022 still sounds like a kettle boiling on take-off
If this was an AWD the 0 to 100 would be impressive
And safer too. Imagine this in the wet?
Or in RWD = More fun.
It would be insanely quick
That burnout though
Hyundai need to offer it with Mickey Thompson slicks from factory
Hyundai cars always outperform the stated figures
i love the sound of the peeping wheels
👍 super vidéo 👍👏❤️ très intéressant 👍
3:24 what the actual f? I guess cause there’s so much torque it just can’t handle it without tc
I love the new look.
How do you activate launch control.
are those halogen headlights?
Why they do front wheel drive electric is beyond me. Tyres won't last a month.
drive normally and they'll last longer than RWD
Hahaha, they’d almost let you in at Summernats with a burnout like that.
hahaha
No gas fully electric great car I want this car btw how will I charge this vehicle at home with a cable

Awesome kona ev...
Had one of these chasing me in a Mustang GT. Got to a light and the soccer dad was raring to go. LOL. It's still a Hyundai.
Something with this motor/battery in say a Mazda mx5 and RWD could be ALOT of fun.
Yes 😀
Why not rear wheel drive Hyundai?
This is sick
Iki rancangan rally di kembangke.
Accelerating 0-100 in 6.8 sec is pretty good.😉 I think with semi slick tyres would be under 6 sec... Power of torque.😃
From a safety perspective, this car needs levels of traction control, with one that cannot be completely switched off.
Impressive performance!
there should always be an option to completely switch it off.

@@digisuboob okay so is a car enthusiast going to be buying an electric Hyundai SUV? Hmm funny cause I don’t think so
@@youraveragejoe1 I am a car enthusiast, i have a 500hp is200, a 700hp senator and at the same time i had a hyundai i20.
Definitely need PS5 tires for this car
0 to 100 not bad.☹️
Silent Tyre shredder.
Kona means b*tt in our language😂
Powercruise powerskids here we come.
🤣
The car just does not come with good and grippy all season tires.
fwd with so much torque lmao
3:23 what my mum thinks will happen if she floors it in her corolla
Edit: time
Pretty sad that a electric SUV can get 100kmph quicker than a 86 or brz.
Yea and an electric sedan can get to 100kmph faster than most super cars. It’s electric, hardly a fair comparison against petrol cars.
Not to mention it costs almost 20k more
I'd rather get a Nissan Leaf than this thing...
Also traction control doesn't really do a good job controlling wheelspin causing less traction...
0-100 in 6.7 seconds disagrees
@@user-vk4vd7vr5t I said wheelspin. I never mentioned anything about 0-60 mph times.

$60k????
Think I'd rather wait for the Polestar 2 🤔
damn where do you live? Everywhere I've seen it been sold its max 40k, where do you get +50%?
@@kyriakos098 Good ol Australia. Everything auto related costs 50% more than US or EU 😡 EVs seem to have an additional markup for some reason.
45k for me minus 13k Canada + Quebec ev cash back
It's so strange not hearing a screaming engine.
Looks like Hyundai's traction control isn't very advanced. And that's being kind.
FWD on this type of body
It's a no for me
Probably need new tires every 5000 kilometers.
If you drive like this ofc? :DDD
Add some turbos to this will be good
😂😂
Kurang apik tapi berguna
Model 3 SR+ over this any day. This is way overpriced.
Here in Canada the Tesla 3 RWD is $18,000 more than the Kona EV…
That is one ugly back end....get rid of those large lower lights😫
