Hyundai Kona Electric SE: what to know
The 2025 Hyundai Kona Electric SE is a 5-seat compact SUV with an EPA range of 261 mi from a 64 kWh battery, starting at $32,975 MSRP.
DC fast charging peaks at 102 kW but a 10–80% top-up takes around 43 minutes, so this is happiest as a home-charged daily driver rather than a frequent road-tripper.
It uses 31 kWh per 100 miles, so at the US-average home rate of $0.16/kWh it costs about 5.0¢ per mile to fuel — roughly $645 a year at 13,000 miles.
