- Kyle takes the 2020 64kWh Kona EV on a range test. Luckily he had a 2020 Bolt EV 66kWh to compare to this week and had similar conditions to run a near identical range test between the two.

Kyle this is yet another super test you have documented with the Kona. It’s the best road test with a Kona since yes guess what ... you’re very own long distance Kona video last year. Any Kona owners who post on Utube have never documented a video like yours. Fantastic work sir. I’d give you 1000 thumbs up if I could.
Good work, Kyle! The range tests are always interesting.
Love the 70 mph testing and your use of the miles per Kw instead of watts per mile.
216mi @ 70mph from 100% -> 6%
These tests are so valuable for consumers. Thank you SO much.
Fantastic results! I would not like to sit in the BOLT’s seats for that long, because they really hit my shoulders in the wrong places.
I bought a Kia Niro specifically for the long range for low cost, and I wanted the extra room in the rear seat. I routinely get 3.5-4 miles /kw on my daily commute in good weather. Almost always use the cruse at 70 mph.
I noticed what I think may be a slight difference between the 2 tests. The Bolt had 2 occupants for part of the ride (more weight), and if I am not wrong, the Bolt did 70 all the way, rather than reducing to 56 mph for a time while traveling back to the track.
The Bolt is better because it actually exists and you can buy one. Kind of like in the former Soviet Union - used cars were worth more than new ones, because used ones had actually been built; whereas new ones were just a gleam in some factory managers eye and might never arrive.
In the Kona/Nero comparisons the Nero is said to have the nicer interior, but one thing this video drove home for me is that I MUCH prefer the touchscreen position on the Kona. It looks just perfectly placed for ease of use. At the end of the day that would be a bigger factor for me than how nice the plastic is.
Just recently leased a 2020 Hyundai IONIQ Hybrid and so far I’m very happy with it. I’ve had the car more than a week now and I’m getting about 52MPG around town. The vehicle has about 425 miles on the odometer and has about 150 miles left on the tank. I hope it gets better mileage as I drive it more.
The test with the bolt was with two people 🧐 and this one just you.
I like your range tests: You are one of the few testers to do the entire test at 70 mph cruise on Interstate highways. I would like to suggest the following cars to test:
Awesome range test! So this shows Bolt EV and Kona Electric about even in range.. Now I'd like to see Kia Niro EV and see how it compares.. hopefully it can do about same range, even though it's got about 30km less EPA-range than either car...
That HUD looked sweet.
Those wheels makes that boring Tesla look so much better. I hope it doesn't change the range. I like the Bolt Kona & Niro. I was trying to decide between so this is a great test. Love your videos it really helps potential people like me make better purchasing decisions. Keep up the great work.
My 2019 Kona over this past NE winter never got less than 240 cumulative, normal mode and normal heat setting. I do about 75% highway, 70 mph. With the warmer weather we're getting 290 with AC, I know owners in Florida and AZ who are getting close to 320. Your test weather was relatively mild and ECO only got you 228? Something's different, think you could explain it?
Very interesting - always enjoy the range tests. I'm interested in the Kona EV but I live in Dallas and they are not available here.
Your videos are nice ! Please do 2020 Hyundai Ioniq EV (170 miles) highway test if possible !
Cool. I think Hyundai has a pretty good battery warranty as well compared to the Bolt. Looking forward to the Volvo video!
