Exactly Tesla was charged 4 times with Superchargers and Kona only 2 times for the same distance.. how can that be close right ?! (not even mention the price of Kona about half the price of Tesla X) Cool stuff..
Bjørn's joke at 00:16 explained: "Who is the best, Kona or the X?" In Norwegian "Kona" means "the wife" and the "X" means of course the "ex-girlfriend".
That was a great video! Almost want me to buy a Kona!.. I just got my Ioniq because of Bjørns review a while ago. Hyundai should give you lots of more credit, because you are really giving them bonus for showing people what great cars Ioniq and Kona are. Nobody else is doing that! :-)
All the while posting another $739mil cash burnt, yet Tesla promises "sustained profits" for Q3 after as well yes? Good luck to all - we need more EV, whether Tesla lives on not.
Outselling all other midsize luxury models in the US? Is that so? Wow. Take a look at the interior of any of the other midsize luxury sedans and then the Tesla - it looks like a golf cart inside by comparison. Frankly I'd sooner buy a lower line Lexus and 200 tanks of fuel for the same money.
5 stops for Model X and 2 stops in Kona and still both cars arrived within 30 seconds of each other. This means the Model X driver will be more relaxed since he could take more breaks that the Kona driver. In my book Model X won because of faster charging speed and more widely available chargers.
@@rupakbag2634 hmmm, where did I see such logic. Oh right: there is a phone with a face unlock and without a finger unlock. Its very hard to unlock when placed on a horizontal surface. You have to stretch your head over the display to have it unlocked. So in your book, the phone is better than others because it makes a person stretch his neck and he is more relaxed because of this? Bonus question: can you name the phone?
Yet the Tesla had the advantage of much faster charging... Know what it's like when you get to the gas station and all the pumps are taken up? You're going to have to wait five minutes to fill your tank. Now imagine all the charging stations being taken up. They could be there for HOURS.... :)
Fair point - but it doesn't allow for the less frequent charging stops for the Hyundai. That really matters where I live because of a lack of charging stations.
To be fair, Kona should be compared with Model 3 but even then there's still significant price difference. Hyundai has beaten Tesla in their own game in less than 3 years of production.
Love these races! You've got to do some Tesla v Tesla ones to compare efficiency between the different models. I think what you're starting to point out is that efficiency is a really big factor with electric cars, potentially more important than range after a certain point. The kona may not get as much electricity as quickly as the X, but it can go just as far on the amount it can get in the same time. I can't wait for you to find a model 3 to play with too
Great vid guys. Really informative. Definitely a tie - if you want to take more risks in range you *might* get there quicker ... or not! Well done. Thanks.
Most of Hyundai Ioniq and Kona produced is reserved for Hyundai home market (South Korea). Then they have a large backlog of cars already ordered in Europe to fulfill. My estimation for the US: not soon. Hyundai just makes too damn few of them.
Awesome video, very impressive. I think these are in a whole different categories of SUV vs CUV. But that Kona really changes the EV game again, hopefully they'll really trybto sell them unlike Chevrolet with their bolt that's never been on an add in the USA
Great race guys, keep up the good work :) I was sure the Tesla would win, by at least 10-15 min. Well, if Pawel's charging strategy was a bit different he might have won by 5 min I guess? Anyway, I'll accept it's a tie, but 5 stops vs 2 stops, thats a solid win for the Kona in my eyes. For the next race, maby you should add a rule for discount for rest energy? Let's say a car charges 1% every min, it arrives with 20% left, so you substract 20 min. Or end the race at Nebbenes (or other location with SC and QC) and stop the time when the car is charged back to a given SOC. That way you can play it safe at the end, and maby change the charge-strategy a little.
Taz Keller Nissan Leaf have never been good at range, do not see the next gen Leaf being any better. Which is funny as the Korean's are doing a far better job at that. The 40kwh Leaf is just the old model with a new skin and slightly more powerful inverter, and a new dash, as well as some adaptive cruise control and lane keep.
Very exciting video!Out of interest, I tried to do some numbers. The Tesla Model X charges twice as fast but does not consume twice as fast. I would have expected it to do better than the Kona. Still, the numbers seem to check out.Both cars drove roughly the same speed and arrived at rougly the same time. That means they spent roughly the same amounts of time charging.The Kona started out with 64kWh and finished with 6kWh. Bjørn charged 2x50 minutes at roughly 45kW, or 75kWh, for a total consumption of 75 + 56 = 131 kWh over 1000km. Seems to be in the ballpark.The Tesla started out with 79 kWh and finished with 11kWh. Pawel charged for 25,20,15,15,15 minutes at roughly 92kW, or 138kWh, for a total consumption of 138 + 68 = 206 kWh. Seems to check out as well.
WhaaaaT! It was super fun and amazing video, guys! Boths did it great this time! I had my money with the Model X, but yet to win it would have arrived with 30 ish km left which it's too low for a Tesla since they are not using GoM but displaying range based on typical consumption!. Yet again it was super fun to watch guys! A great summary video with lots of great shots, like when both passed each other and the meetups! It keep me up to the end in the edge of my seat!. I belive you have here, with this format, an excelent video franchise with tons of potencial for brands to use it and to get lots of extra followers! As you said at the end I'd love to see a Jag I-pace reviewed by Bjorn and also in the races!
Very interesting test on these ev's gives me an idea on what my next car will be in future. Only problem is we don't have this kind of infrastructure hopefully it will change over the next few years
that was a great video that shows that even with the current g2 cars that are coming we can drive long distances on electric as soon as the infrastructure is there because it is known fact that tesla owners drive very long distances very often using only their propietariy charging infrastructure.
If thats the case, it doesn't mean anything anyway. What is smart sophisticated engineering, but not followed by mass producing, good for ??? The answer is, big surprise, n o t h i n g . May be the only reason is to give their brand (and co-brand KIA) a good reputation bonus, technical competence..... (along with some compliance reasons). They know that customers are demanding these cars. But they don't care !!! I must repeat: THEY DONT CARE ! Playing around with peoples wishes and patience and producing Ioniq model for three years in a row in same low numbers. 3 thumbs up for very good engineering. 5 thumbs down for the way of treating people/customers.
So close. Well done to both of you. The Kona definitely did an impressive job. I wonder what the Ioniq could do if it had the higher capacity battery at it's lower drag coefficient ?
Some mention has been made on line regarding 63KwH battery for Ioniq but not yet confirmed. The model 3 is pretty basic without upgrading at a hefty price and no U.K. date for deliveries yet. Most of our miles are Motorway between 60-70 m.p.h. Tried Tesla Model S and loved it. Too big for our parking slot and expensive for us here though. Thanks for your comment.
Excellent, Even though I like Tesla and it cars I would always buy the Hyundai - why? you can easily get parts if you keep your cars long term after the warranty. Tesla policy of not supplying spare parts or allow third party repairs is saying they are NOT environmentally friendly as they seem and is a huge red flag for prospective buyers. So .....until Tesla changes its ways, Hyundai is becoming the go to EV car company :-) Well Done Hyundai keep pluging away as we need more honest cost effective competitors that allow customers to truly own them.
@nitedaze1000 True, You can do anything you want with your car but If the repairer wants all the software updates, use of the Service Centers and Supercharger's they will have to agree with Tesla's terms of service
Hi Björn. Wait maybe 6-9 month until i get my Model 3. So let try to make a challenge on German Autobahn on more highspeed 🤪. Liebe Grüße aus der Pfalz
Not explained is the "fuel" consumption ie total electricity usage and cost for the same journey. On the basis of what we've seen when the Tesla was charging at nearly twice the rate of the Kona, then the electricity cost of the Kona must have been substantially less. Obviously the Kona is a considerably smaller car but it would have been worth itemising this matter, as surely the whole point of the electric car is to use energy as efficiently as possible.
In the beginning Pawel charged all the way down to 56kW before he left the charger which was a huge mistake. He should have left every super charger when it dropped down to 87kW.
WOW, that tool that holds your phones on the windscreen looks like some awesome quality! Would you mind linking to it? I'd love to use it for a phone and a camera.
Hello Bjørn Nyland, I'm very glad to know that the Kona had such a great performance and efficiency. But I presume that the IONIQ is even more efficient than the Kona, right? So when in 2019 the IONIQ will be offered with a bigger battery, probably this will be a great advantage, but I'm not sure if he will beat the Kona in such a long race as this one in this video, What do you think?
I bought 2 Bolts/ampera E this year. Didn’t borrow money for them. But now I’m thinking I should have bought a Kona instead of the second bolt. It’s okay. They are all great!
Paul Mansfield Niro seems better size, longer more rear leg and cargo space, possibly new gen battery but same size at 64kwh, so should go similar distances. And hopefully much faster AC charging 22kw would be nice like the Renault Zoe has.
Gregory Bell yes, I think there's a good chance it will be ideal for many of us with families. Sadly, I expect it to be the same price as the Kona if not more.
Yes very true, but luckily, the Kona sold in countries where it will sell very well, and well America is only one market, so Tesla can easily win there as it is "American" made and has the supercharger network, however other markets are catching up fast to the limited supercharger network, and will dominate EV sales in the not to distant future.
Kona is too small for its great range, next size up would be a better size for a family, another great video from Bjorn, the big difference is ease of use of the tech in the cars, looks like Kona bugs a lot when Lane assist is on, setting a destination is so old school, enter country, city find address etc when on Tesla just point to map. great effort from Hyundai just needs to update some of the tech and stop thinking like a fossil car maker, i mean paddles for regen, really?
Wow, the Kona just won a lot of respect from me! Great race guys!
Exactly Tesla was charged 4 times with Superchargers and Kona only 2 times for the same distance..
how can that be close right ?! (not even mention the price of Kona about half the price of Tesla X) Cool stuff..
Kona is really efficiently awesome
without the supercharger it would not of been even remotely close.
Bjørn's joke at 00:16 explained:
"Who is the best, Kona or the X?"
In Norwegian "Kona" means "the wife" and the "X" means of course the "ex-girlfriend".
Lol
🤣🤣🤣
picitnew that is amazing haha!!!
thanks for explaining
As a Norwegian it actually took me an extra second to understand the subtle joke. Nice!
This race is epic! Reminds me of the ol' top gear races... Well done Bjorn and Pawel

Hyundai built a REALLY good EV. They better build them as fast as they can sell them.
Karen Pease well I'm not asking Hyundai to build them at a loss. Just look at that balance sheet Tesla published today in contrast.
All the while posting another $739mil cash burnt, yet Tesla promises "sustained profits" for Q3 after as well yes? Good luck to all - we need more EV, whether Tesla lives on not.

5 Stops(Model X) vs. 2 Stops(Hyundai Kona[Kauai]).. WOW!!

Nah less stops is better.
@@rupakbag2634 lol your bias is showing
Rupak Bag That’s some fanboy spin there. More range is better. And it’s less than half the price.

That was great review of Kona efficiency, thank you Bjorn
I LOVE WHEN BJORN SAYS "SHIEEEEEET" 🤣🤣🤣👌
Wow incredible video bjorn you are outstanding in your scientific tests congrats.
Very nice...
KONA is awesome!
Great job guys ! Thank you Bjorn for the great and very informatives videos !
Hyundai have produced another amazing ev, hopefully they can keep up with the demand
Thank you guys was a great race. The 30 seconds is nothing, Pawel could have left maybe 1 min earlier.

Wow...very impressed!!...great comparison video guys...Kona would be my fist choice if I move from gas to a electric vehicle
To be fair, Kona should be compared with Model 3 but even then there's still significant price difference. Hyundai has beaten Tesla in their own game in less than 3 years of production.
Well said. Looks like a formidable competitor. I’m stoked as a consumer.
Lets wait for Model Y.
Model 3 ground clearance is why I will not ever buy one.

That Kona rocks!
The size of a golf and the price of a high end golf!
That is the best EV in Europe!!
Awesome videos guys. Ordered my Kona today.
Great vid guys. Really informative. Definitely a tie - if you want to take more risks in range you *might* get there quicker ... or not! Well done. Thanks.
I am convinced that the Kona is a car I want..
Just wonder when we can buy them in the USA
Most of Hyundai Ioniq and Kona produced is reserved for Hyundai home market (South Korea). Then they have a large backlog of cars already ordered in Europe to fulfill. My estimation for the US: not soon.

interesting how these kind of races become more of a logistics challenge than a speed race
Very Cool guys. Thanks.. Im a big Kona fan. But also impressed with tesla charging structure network.
So close! If Pawel hadn’t been been afraid of running out again, he would have come first. But still been a very close race.
Hyundai kona for me
I love these races, hope you will do one with your Tesla and the new Nissa Leaf when it comes :)

Excellent, Even though I like Tesla and it cars I would always buy the Hyundai - why? you can easily get parts if you keep your cars long term after the warranty.

Well Done Hyundai keep pluging away as we need more honest cost effective competitors that allow customers to truly own them.
Except Tesla allows anyone to repair their cars, just have the work inspected to certify it safe with Tesla services (including Supercharging)
@nitedaze1000 True, You can do anything you want with your car but If the repairer wants all the software updates, use of the Service Centers and Supercharger's they will have to agree with Tesla's terms of service
Just one word.... Brilliant
Hi Björn. Wait maybe 6-9 month until i get my Model 3. So let try to make a challenge on German Autobahn on more highspeed 🤪. Liebe Grüße aus der Pfalz
That was good race. The next will be if possible between kia niro and tesla 3
Love your Kona. I ordered the same colour but won't receive it until March 2020. Can't wait. 🥺😖
Excellent idea for a race, I always want to drive my EV as efficiently as possible, never feel the same about ICE for some reason.
Not explained is the "fuel" consumption ie total electricity usage and cost for the same journey. On the basis of what we've seen when the Tesla was charging at nearly twice the rate of the Kona, then the electricity cost of the Kona must have been substantially less. Obviously the Kona is a considerably smaller car but it would have been worth itemising this matter, as surely the whole point of the electric car is to use energy as efficiently as possible.
+John M Kona costs 3.75 NOK/kWh whereas Tesla costs 1.4 NOK/kWh if superchargers weren't free.
In the beginning Pawel charged all the way down to 56kW before he left the charger which was a huge mistake. He should have left every super charger when it dropped down to 87kW.
WOW, that tool that holds your phones on the windscreen looks like some awesome quality! Would you mind linking to it? I'd love to use it for a phone and a camera.
Cool video series. Add a diesel VW Passat to every race, so there's perspective. :)
That Kona is impressive!
Some predictions before the run would have been very interesting 👍
The charging noise at 24:56 damaged my ears! 😄
That Kona is impressive!!!!
Nice race, maybe now you could do race between new Kona vs new Model 3...
My next vacation will be to your great country! I want to meet you Bjorn, you're a great person, I want to see the legendary Optimus Prime.
I would say Kona is the winner. Considering ~44Kw charging speed vs ~90kw charging speed. Kona did a super great job
Hello Bjørn Nyland, I'm very glad to know that the Kona had such a great performance and efficiency. But I presume that the IONIQ is even more efficient than the Kona, right?
So when in 2019 the IONIQ will be offered with a bigger battery, probably this will be a great advantage, but I'm not sure if he will beat the Kona in such a long race as this one in this video, What do you think?

Gregory Bell yes, I think there's a good chance it will be ideal for many of us with families. Sadly, I expect it to be the same price as the Kona if not more.
Bjorn, can you do a separate video on how those EV paddle shifters work? That was an interesting bit on how you use it but it’s worthy of an episode.
The Kona couldn't do that very many places in the US as non-Tesla DC chargers are few and far between.
Yes very true, but luckily, the Kona sold in countries where it will sell very well, and well America is only one market, so Tesla can easily win there as it is "American" made and has the supercharger network, however other markets are catching up fast to the limited supercharger network, and will dominate EV sales in the not to distant future.
I like kona more than others because it is crossover , nice looking and cheap
ilker erol U can buy cheap parts for Kona far far way cheaper than Tesla
Karen Pease well it's not SUV just a crossover of B segment
Lol love the line "cheap" yeah only 2x the price of the ICE Kona
That high pitched noise at the veefil chargers..horrible. Kona is an awesome ev. For the cost it is huge winner in my book.
It would be nice to know much time did each of them spent charging
Best Regard from Poland;)
Kona is too small for its great range, next size up would be a better size for a family, another great video from Bjorn, the big difference is ease of use of the tech in the cars, looks like Kona bugs a lot when Lane assist is on, setting a destination is so old school, enter country, city find address etc when on Tesla just point to map. great effort from Hyundai just needs to update some of the tech and stop thinking like a fossil car maker, i mean paddles for regen, really?
