Kona Electric Wins Best EV Title at Honest John Awards

Hyundai’s Kona Electric wins the brand new award category of ‘Best EV’ at last night’s Honest John Awards, as voted for by users of HonestJohn.co.uk.

David Ross, Honest John Editor, said: “The Hyundai Kona is a true electric game-changer. Sensibly priced, easy to drive and capable of covering up to 279-miles on a single charge, Hyundai has delivered the electric crossover that car buyers want. Over the past 12 months the Kona’s popularity has soared with our readers and powered its way to the top of electric car table.”

Kona Electric offers the very latest in battery electric powertrain and connected technology, powered by a 150kW (204ps), or a 100kW (136ps) electric motor driving the front wheels. Prices start from £30,750 on the road for the 39kWh and £36,345 for the 64kWh (excluding Plug-in Car Grant PICG which is currently £3,500).

Ashley Andrew, Hyundai Motor UK Managing Director, said: “The fact that Kona Electric has been recognised as Best EV by the users of HonestJohn.co.uk is a major accolade and we couldn’t be more delighted. The car is innovative, affordable, and a real game changer in the world of electric vehicles. Hyundai is committed to becoming a leader in electrification, with plans to become a global top three EV manufacturer by 2025.”

The Kona benefits from Hyundai’s comprehensive five-year unlimited mileage warranty and roadside assistance package. The car is packed with the latest equipment as standard, including the latest active safety features, such as Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist and Lane Keeping Assist.

Now in its ninth consecutive year, the Honest John Awards don’t follow the traditional awards format; instead the winners are chosen by the best experts of all: the website users. The awards recognise and reward the cars that HonestJohn.co.uk users search for most on the site. The reviews which create the most interest among HonestJohn.co.uk users are the winners.

Financial Disclosure

F.P. Smith Holdings (Newark Avenue) Limited, F.P. Smith Holdings (Ilkeston) Ltd, and F.P. Smith Motors Ltd are Appointed Representatives of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows F.P. Smith Holdings (Newark Avenue) Limited, F.P. Smith Holdings (Ilkeston) Ltd, and F.P. Smith Motors Ltd to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach for a new car purchase is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow.

Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.

In the event of disputes we are unable to resolve the Retail Motor Industry Federation (RMI) National Conciliation Service will offer free impartial advice and when appropriate an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) service that we are fully committed to. For further information you can visit their website at www.nationalconciliationservice.co.uk or call 01788 538317.
