    Scott Collie

    Scott Collie drove this car and these were their findings:
    Hits
    • Spacious, polished interior
    • Smoother, more refined drive
    • Space-saver spare rare in this segment

    • Expensive relative to base Kona Electric...
    • ...and crosses into Ioniq 5 price territory
    • 100kW DC fast-charging isn't great
