Jalur kerusi sport berbeza berdasarkan model yang dipilih di pasaran UK. Model N Line asas, berharga £40,395 (RM242,219), menawarkan kerusi kain, manakala N Line S, berharga £43,095 (RM258,406), menyediakan kombinasi Eco Alcantara dan kulit.

Kona Electric mencapai masa 0-100km/j dalam masa 7.8 saat. Pelanggan juga mempunyai pilihan untuk memilih model Kona yang lebih rendah dengan motor elektrik 154hp dan bateri 48.4 kWh yang lebih kecil.

Keputusan Hyundai untuk memperkenalkan varian N Line ke Kona Elektrik selari dengan perubahan dalam keutamaan pengguna, di mana dijangkakan kenderaan elektrik menawarkan prestasi dan daya tarikan estetika yang serupa dengan kenderaan enjin pembakaran tradisional. Langkah ini mencerminkan komitmen Hyundai untuk menyediakan pelbagai dan menarik rangkaian kenderaan elektrik untuk pasaran.

Hyundai Introduces N Line Trim to Kona Electric

Hyundai is catering to the growing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) that blend performance styling with sustainability by extending its sporty N Line trim to the Kona Electric. This marks the first time Hyundai’s electric vehicle lineup incorporates the N Line treatment, offering customers a stylish and sporty option.

The N Line trim on the Kona Electric focuses on enhancing the vehicle’s appearance, featuring more aggressive front and rear bumpers, gloss black mirror caps, 19-inch special wheels, and an optional two-tone black roof, an exclusive feature not available on other models. The interior receives N Line touches such as a dedicated steering wheel, metal pedals, black headliner, and sports seats.

The upholstery of the sports seats varies based on the model chosen in the UK market. The base N Line model, priced at £40,395 (RM242,219), offers cloth seats, while the N Line S, priced at £43,095 (RM258,406), provides an Eco Alcantara and leather combination. Both options include red contrast stitching, heated seats in the front and rear, with the N Line S adding ventilation, electric adjustment, dual-zone climate control with rear air vents, a Bose sound system, a full-width DRL light bar, and additional safety features.

Under the hood, both the N Line and N Line S models share the same electric powertrain, featuring a 65 kWh battery and a single 215hp electric motor driving the front wheels. The Kona Electric achieves a 0-100km/h time of 7.8 seconds. Customers also have the option to choose lesser Kona models with a 154hp electric motor and a smaller 48.4 kWh battery.

Hyundai’s decision to introduce the N Line trim to the Kona Electric aligns with the shift in consumer preferences, where electric vehicles are expected to offer both performance and aesthetic appeal similar to traditional combustion counterparts. The move reflects Hyundai’s commitment to providing a diverse and attractive range of electric vehicles for the market.
