kona does have auto-pilot functionality. You have to use the adaptive cruise control in conjunction with lane adjustment. This gives you stop and go ability and all you have to do is put your hand on the wheel once in awhile just like a tesla. Hyundai calls it Smart Cruise Control.
@@teslapeg I don't know about the Kona you were driving as specs may vary by country. I have a UK 2020 Kona EV and it has Lane Keep Assist which is what you were demonstrating but it also has Lane Follow Assist which is what @balthasar3 is talking about. The Lane Follow Assist is disabled by default so you have to find it in the configuration menus and turn it on but once you've done that it will steer to keep you in the centre of the lane when smart cruise control is on (provided it can actually see the lane markings). Lane Keep assist only steers to stop you drifting out of the lane, Lane Follow Assist actually follows the lane properly.
@@DuncanBooth i agree maybe in his country its not available. In Australia its the second best auto steer i already checked and it really lil bit better than bmw and mercedes but not as easy as use like tesla which is very straight forward to use
The auto pilot works brilliantly in the Kona. Unlike the basic Tesla autopilot when you indicate to change lanes in the Kona, it disengages whilst manoeuvring, then re-engages automatically in the new lane. It has 4 levels of distance control from the car in front and follows the centre of the lane very well in all weathers and at night and re-adjusts the distance from the car Infront if someone moves into your lane It works brilliantly in stop and go traffic and informs you to press the button on the steering wheel to move off again if stationary for more than about 10 seconds. The auto pilot settings are also shown on the head up display. Lane follow assist is indicated by a green steering wheel on the display. The car gives you a warning after a period of time if you are not holding the steering wheel. There is also the option in the settings for lane keep assist, which is not as advanced and will just warn you and help you stay in lane if you were to stray out of your lane. Don't confuse the two. You have to go into the settings just the once to set up lane follow assist, then it will work from a press on the steering wheel button anytime you want to engage it. This is on a 2019 Premium SE model.
At least with the hyundai, you have parts availability and you can actually repair/maintain the vehicle yourself *without them restricting the hyundai's functions* , unlike tesle and their " *we know whats better for you* " philosophy. For that alone I'd take hyunday over tesla.
Went for the Hyundai Kona back in December, but getting the Tesla Model 3 SR+ later this year. I really love the OTA updates, the charging network and the technology overall. Dont get me wrong, I love the Kona, its a really good car.
@@teslapeg Tesla´s are great cars but they are not superior EVs like 10 years ago but the charging network is really bringing other manufacturers down in the states.

So…..many……buttons…. Considering a Kona for my daughter but being used to the 3 I’m not sure I can make the leap backward in time. The reason why the Tesla input is so perfect is it’s ‘set it and forget it.’ Once you’ve set up how you like to drive, you never go in again and mess around with it while driving. The Kona looks like a pain because it appears that you’ll constantly have to mess with all the various buttons while driving. Thanks for the video, this was helpful.
If the Hyundai infotainment system is similar to recent Hyundai models then you can use the screen instead of buttons. I haven't used either car, but I don't fancy taking my eyes off the road to hunt for soft buttons while driving. Physical buttons can be found by touch. Safer?
Headunit display says Nearby charge station 2.km?! Travel that far just to charge ? Not everyone is lucky enough to charge it at home. Charging infrastructure needs to be improved to make it realistic for everyone to consider buying a EV.
Thx for great review. I was just in winnipeg a few months ago. Wish you had a final verdict, seems like it might be that your final verdict is model 3 is better but kona is nearly competitive.
I Owen bolt ev and in summer I’m going for model y I’m telling you there is no ev out there not even close to Tesla. It’s better looking car and faster in charging and charger network and planning the route for you and the auto pilot is amazing why pay almost same price for less car
It’s always nice to see competitors and learn from each other. Otherwise there will be a stall in development if competition dies down. I’m very excited to see the Volkswagen ID4 hit the market and compete with Teslas. The Europe market absolutely loves them! But I’m still a Tesla fanboy and prefer a Tesla lol
@@sen73nced Well the 21 version is the facelifted version with very minor updates (new instrument cluster, air vents, improvements to the operating system). In some countries the 20.5 version doesn't have BlueLink but the new one does though the U.S. did have it on the older one too.
The Model 3 used to have a setting for low regen which would be useful for snow driving. Does it still? Personally, I prefer RWD in snow as the 3 has 55% of its weight in the rear and you can add sand bags in the trunk for more. Also, if you’re going down a slippery hill, put it in neutral to turn off regen.
People putting sand bags in the trunk is highly dangerous and even mentioning it here giving people the idea could cause a deadly spin out. If you live in a snowy area keeping the regen OFF would be the safest thing to do. You may get less miles overall but let's be real when we choose the torquiest car in the world to drive on snow and ice.... (I wouldnt)
@@willaerley7140 if you can't possibly understand how putting a ton of weight in the trunk for traction can be dangerous turning on icy roads we have nothing to discuss.

I brought my 2020 Kona EV in for a software update for recall 199, "reduced braking power". I dropped the car off 07/15/2021 at 9 a.m. in the morning. Over 30 hours later the car is still in the shop. Unfortunately, Hyundai didn't invest in over the air update technology, which means owners of Hyundai EVs have to schedule maintenance appointments for software updates. Then after dropping the car off they have to wait for a technician to get around to it. Keep in mind the service center is also working on ICE cars as well so it might take a day, two, or three to get your EV back. I totally regret buying this car. Don't make the same mistake. Look at the other competitors, Tesla, GM, Ford, and so on.
So you are comparing a Tesla Model 3 2020 with a Hyundai Kona 2021 and you like it! Please sell me the tesla 2020 for the price of 2021 Hyundai Kona! I think you are going to be very happy in the end!
the kona is a better value but the info tainment on the tesla is top notch and their battery tech has more data / history and their degradation is well known - some cars are at 92% range at 200k miles!. if you have to sit 30-45 minutes while charging being able to watch a movie on a 15 inch screen is pretty sweet.
The kona does have a lot better value. 99% of the time you will be charging at home. Fast charging can damage or degrade the battery. 99% of the time I park I just go inside so the screen holds very little value to me.
Okay, no more tax credits in the USA for Tesla. $7500+ (USD) penalty - and I'm also interested in the actual cost of your Tesla (with it's Auto-Pilot option) vs the Kona. Is this a fair comparo?
@@sanketthakuriya5669 the Tesla will give you tax credit to. Not saying it’s a bad car I’m saying that to be competitive they need to lower the price or use more premium materials to justify the price

Where do get service on the Model 3 when the closest Tesla service center to Winnipeg is 1200 km away? I would think this would be a major con for the Kona as there seems be more servicing Hyundai dealers than Starbucks in Canada.
Honestly Tesla has people all over Canada. In Winnipeg they have a service center, it’s just not official. It’s there just to fix our Tesla in the city
You can get the higher model soul EV for about 3K after everything in Canada. You get a bigger battery than the Tesla, more option for regen on the fly. I go from point A to point B and the screen don't matter at all to me. If your eyes are on the screen while you are driving like some tesla drivers, you shouldn't be on the road. Crossed Canada in the Kona as well adn should be possible in the US as well according to friends
Stay away from Hyundai! The company is awful if something goes wrong with your car. You are basically on your own! Had no car due the recall for almost 3months and now they don’t want to pay for the rental I had to use for 1.5 months. Do not buy Hyundai believe me! You will regret it!
Worst city I’ve ever been to in all my travels, funny how many people that I talk to feel the same. Best part about the peg is when you leave. Edit: forgot to say great video though.
This guy doesn't mention about 20,000 dollars worth of tech on the model 3..... he just leaves it out.... Oh and I'm sorry the model 3 totally has a super modern elegant interior with space age tech and features that only show up on 100,000 dollar cars but the interior on the kona def looks like a car from 2014 with a base model package....bleh....nah.
@@teslapeg not mentioning the 20k in tech on the tesla is playing favorites for the "underdog" in the review...it absolutely makes the review unfair. I'm not gonna compare a dodge hellcat to anything and not once bring up the 707 hp engine.....it would bias the review.
@@teslapeg and you're not NEARLY critical enough about the interior of the kona looking like it's from 2014 in 2021 is just rough.... If you wanna be equally critical of the tesla then talk about how the paint job is cheap but the interior vs interior were talking about a solid 9 out of 10 vs a 4 out of 10 unless your over 65 and have never sat in a tesla before....and if we're going that route the kona is gonna scare the hell out of 65 and over because instead of a 1 stop shop it has 9,000 buttons all over the steering wheel, console, dash, doors, and ceiling..... 65 and up no likey...
@@nunyabidniz It's not worth 20k, the screen itself with touch is basically a screen with touch sensors. The "computer" is also not worth much, many tablets can do the same, there is no high end gpu etc. The ccds on the tesla also is not worth much either. As for buttons, easier to have a physical touch than look at ta screen while you drive which is enormously unsafe. Also many drivers prefer the height on a kona, soul or niro over a tesla. Many people once they park they leave the car and the screen rarely gets used.

@@Hypocrisy.Allergic You can get it for much cheaper in Canada. 3-5k cheaper

Tesla
Stay away from Hyundai! The company is awful if something goes wrong with your car. You are basically on your own! Had no car due the recall for almost 3months and now they don’t want to pay for the rental I had to use for 1.5 months. Do not buy Hyundai believe me! You will regret it!
Omg that’s a horrible experience
Worst city I’ve ever been to in all my travels, funny how many people that I talk to feel the same. Best part about the peg is when you leave.
Edit: forgot to say great video though.
Haha thanks for watching 😅😂
Naaaaahhh no matter what tesla will always rule
I despise Tesla interiors!
They definitely grow on you
@@teslapeg I've been seeing them for years. Gets uglier every time I see them.
@@Pendragon501 To each their own I guess. Glass around means more reflections making it a night mare for sound. More sound goes in as well.
Tesla is much more in the 🇺🇸
Hopefully my channel helps to bring more into Canada 😅
This guy doesn't mention about 20,000 dollars worth of tech on the model 3..... he just leaves it out.... Oh and I'm sorry the model 3 totally has a super modern elegant interior with space age tech and features that only show up on 100,000 dollar cars but the interior on the kona def looks like a car from 2014 with a base model package....bleh....nah.
I totally agree with you! I am a Tesla channel but I always try and not play any favorites so my review is fair
@@teslapeg not mentioning the 20k in tech on the tesla is playing favorites for the "underdog" in the review...it absolutely makes the review unfair. I'm not gonna compare a dodge hellcat to anything and not once bring up the 707 hp engine.....it would bias the review.
@@teslapeg and you're not NEARLY critical enough about the interior of the kona looking like it's from 2014 in 2021 is just rough.... If you wanna be equally critical of the tesla then talk about how the paint job is cheap but the interior vs interior were talking about a solid 9 out of 10 vs a 4 out of 10 unless your over 65 and have never sat in a tesla before....and if we're going that route the kona is gonna scare the hell out of 65 and over because instead of a 1 stop shop it has 9,000 buttons all over the steering wheel, console, dash, doors, and ceiling..... 65 and up no likey...
@@nunyabidniz It's not worth 20k, the screen itself with touch is basically a screen with touch sensors. The "computer" is also not worth much, many tablets can do the same, there is no high end gpu etc. The ccds on the tesla also is not worth much either.
As for buttons, easier to have a physical touch than look at ta screen while you drive which is enormously unsafe. Also many drivers prefer the height on a kona, soul or niro over a tesla. Many people once they park they leave the car and the screen rarely gets used.
Don’t buy a Kona! You will regret it!
Kona has better value and better range than base model
