Hyundai Kona Electric and IONIQ Electric prices cut for revised plug-in car grant

Hyundai Motor UK has reduced prices of its electric car range following changes to the government’s Plug-In Car Grant.

Previously electric cars up to £50,000 were eligible for a £3,000 grant, but the modifications cut these numbers respectively to £35,000 and £2,500. Three Hyundai models qualified under the threshold adjustment, which would limit customer choice. All but one electric vehicle from Hyundai are now eligible for the grant.

 

For Premium models, the IONIQ Electric range reduces prices to £32,995 and Premium SE to £34,995. (before first registration fee applied). Premium models are equipped, with 10.2-inch widescreen navigation, 7-inch TFT Driver Information Display, Wireless Charging Pad, and heated seats and steering wheel.

The Premium SE, meanwhile, adds ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, leather seat facings and Memory Function driver’s seat.

Kona Electric 39KWh prices have also been reduced with the SE Connect now costing £30,395 and Premium at £31,745 (before first registration fee applied). The Kona Electric 64KWh, capable of travelling up to 300 miles on a single charge, now costs £34,995 in Premium specification and £37,145 for the Premium SE (before first registration fee applied).

The new pricing means that Kona Electric 64KWh now has the longest electric range – 300 miles (WLTP) –  of any Plug-in Car Grant-eligible vehicle.

SE Connect models are equipped with two 10.2-inch screens, 17-inch alloy wheels and a Krell 8-speaker premium audio system while Premium adds technology like full LED headlights.

Ashley Andrew, Managing Director, Hyundai Motor UK said “When it comes to electric vehicles, cost is a big consideration so it was important for us, in light of the changes to the PICG, to provide our customers with some additional savings, which we hope will help to maintain demand for zero emission vehicles. IONIQ Electric and Kona Electric are currently among the most popular zero emissions vehicles on sale today, and by maintaining the choice and the value available, Hyundai will remain on track to be one of the largest suppliers of electric vehicles in the country.”
