2024 Hyundai Kona Electric review
The last Hyundai Kona Electric was a bit of a pioneer in Australia. The new model lobs into a busier market, and has a bigger challenge ahead of it.

Seven colours are offered across the line-up, including a new Pluton Blue finish. The outgoing models’ Starlight Yellow has been dropped, while Clear White and Pluton Blue are available with a contrast Fusion Black roof exclusively on the Seltos GT-Line.
The other single colours include Neptune blue, Mars orange, Steel grey, Gravity grey, Cherry black and Snow White pearl.

The Kia Seltos Sport+ is the penultimate specification and features a full gamut of safety tech, though it misses out on desirable features.
