Hyundai Kona Electric awarded five-star Green NCAP rating

The Hyundai Kona Electric has received top marks from Green NCAP, an independent organisation that ranks vehicles based on their energy efficiency and emissions.

Green NCAP awarded the all-electric subcompact SUV a five-star rating, the highest score possible.

The rating was based on three indices, each of which contained several metrics: clean air, energy efficiency and greenhouse gases. As a zero-emissions vehicle, Kona Electric received top marks for clean air and greenhouse gases. That it also ranked high on energy efficiency, however, was particularly impressive. Out of 24 vehicles rated in 2020, the Kona Electric is one of just two vehicles to achieve the maximum score.

In its report, Green NCAP wrote: “As with all other pure electric vehicles, there are no tailpipe emissions so the car is assured of maximum points for Clean Air and for Greenhouse Gases. Even electric cars have to consume energy in order to move but, here too, the Kona's efficiency remains within the zone for which maximum points are scored: <30 kWh/100 km.”

"We’re delighted that the Kona Electric has received a five-star rating in the Green NCAP assessment. This underlines that our all-electric SUV is not just environmentally friendly in terms of being a zero-emission vehicle, but also a strong product with excellent efficiency. This achievement is a noteworthy accomplishment in our ‘Year of Electrification’ and is further evidence of our industry-leading position in the field of future mobility."

Andreas-Christoph Hofmann Vice President Marketing and Product at Hyundai Motor Europe

Kona Electric is the second Hyundai model to receive a maximum five-star rating. In 2019, Green NCAP also awarded the five-star rating to the battery-electric version of Hyundai IONIQ.

The experience at Ancaster Fiat Dartford was great because the salesman communicated with me by phone or email every step of the way and sorted out any issues promptly and courteously. I also appreciated the extra touches like the video presentation of my car, the offer to tune the radio to my choice of stations, and the offer to talk me through controls etc as soon as the car had been delivered to me. The car delivery service was a big bonus as I live some distance from the dealer and tier restrictions were in place.

I had a great experience at Ancaster Nissan Bromley because the staff were so friendly and helpful. Nathan seemed like a natural and comfortable person to chat to and wasn't pushy in the slightest. Since dealing with him I have given his name over to my neighbours who have already visited for a test drive and a friend of ours is also planning on paying him a visit. He was very helpful and down to earth and we are very pleased with our new car thanks to him. Although our experience with the Eltham branch was positive, unfortunately there wasn't much they could do in terms of a deal on the car we liked so we tried the Bromley branch, met Nathan and he was more accommodating to our requirements and budget. This is why I have recommended him to people and will continue to do so.
