Vehicle details
Hyundai Kona 1.6 GDi Hybrid SE Connect 5dr DCT Hybrid Hatchback, , The Hyundai Kona Hatchback 1.6 GDi Hybrid SE Connect 5dr DCT is a compelling entry into the compact crossover market, offering a distinctive blend of bold styling and highly efficient hybrid technology. Designed for those who want the elevated driving position of an suv without the cumbersome footprint, the kona stands out with its unique split-headlight design and rugged body cladding. The se connect trim serves as a well-equipped gateway into the range, providing a balance of essential modern features and a sophisticated electrified powertrain that appeals to both private buyers and company car drivers.
The technical highlight of this model is its 1.6-litre petrol-hybrid engine, which works in tandem with a 32kw electric motor and a 1.56kwh lithium-ion polymer battery. Unlike many of its competitors that use a cvt, the kona hybrid features a six-speed dual-clutch transmission. This choice provides a more natural and engaging driving feel, with crisp gear changes that eliminate the elastic sensation often associated with hybrid motoring. The system is self-charging, meaning it recaptures energy during braking and deceleration to power the electric motor, resulting in a combined fuel economy of approximately 57.6 mpg and significantly reduced urban emissions.
