2020 Chevrolet Bolt vs 2020 Hyundai Kona EV

If you're looking for an electric vehicle, chances are you've heard of the new 2020 Chevrolet Bolt. Chevrolet's electric car revolutionized the EV segment by being the first long-range car offered at an affordable price. The new Bolt has competition, however, particularly from the Hyundai Kona EV.


These two electric cars are among the most generous in terms of range and they are also among the most spacious inside. They are also offered at a similar price. If you’re hesitating between the new Bolt and the Kona EV, this comparison could help you make your choice.


More range in the 2020 Chevrolet Bolt


The new 2020 Chevrolet Bolt offered until recently 383 km of range, but improvements made in 2020 now allow the 2020 Chevrolet Bolt to develop 417 km of range. The Bolt therefore has a little more rannge than the Hyundai Kona EV.


This similarity between the two models is also found in the interior cargo space where the Bolt has a slight advantage. It recharges in approximately 9.0 hours with a 240-volt outlet, which is also similar to the Kona EV. Available from $ 44,800, the 2020 Chevrolet Bolt is entitled to up to $ 13,000 in rebates from the government of Quebec and Canada as well. The Kona EV is a little more expensive, but it is also entitled to government discounts.


On paper, the two models are similar. When you hit the road, however, you will notice more dynamic driving in the more powerful electric Chevrolet Bolt. The Bolt also has a sharper handling and offers higher performance.


If you want to have fun driving a spacious, long-range electric vehicle offered at an affordable price, the 2020 Chevrolet Bolt will be able to fully meet your expectations.
