Charging a Hyundai Kona Electric
Figures taken from the 65 kWh (MY24-25) version
The Hyundai Kona Electric carries 65.4 kWh usable for 514 km WLTP. On a rapid charger it accepts up to 105 kW and goes from 10 to 80 percent in 37 minutes. The breakdown by station power is below.

Charging time on a rapid charger
The Hyundai Kona Electric tops out at 105 kW on DC. Below that figure the station is the limit and the session runs at roughly constant power. Above it, the car charging curve takes over and the published 37 minutes stop improving.
| Station power | 10 to 80% | Km added in 10 min |
|---|---|---|
| 50 kW | 61 min | 51 km |
| 100 kW | 37 min | 84 km |
| 150 kW | 37 minlimited by the car | 84 km |
| 300 kW | 37 minlimited by the car | 84 km |
Past 105 kW a more powerful station no longer shortens the stop. Cold weather, an already warm battery or a high state of charge all stretch these times in real use.
Charging time on a slow charger
On AC the on-board charger sets the limit. The one in the Hyundai Kona Electric accepts 11 kW, whatever station is plugged in behind it.
| Station power | 10 to 100% | Km added in 10 min |
|---|---|---|
| 2.3 kW | 28 h 26 | 2 km |
| 3.7 kW | 17 h 41 | 4 km |
| 7.4 kW | 8 h 50 | 8 km |
| 11 kW | 5 h 57 | 11 km |
| 22 kW | 5 h 57capped at 11 kW by the car | 11 km |
Which connectors
The Hyundai Kona Electric uses a Type 2 inlet for AC, at home and on a slow public charger, and a CCS inlet for DC rapid charging. Those are the two European standards, so no adapter is needed anywhere on the public network.
What a charge costs
A full charge of the Hyundai Kona Electric draws about 65.4 kWh from the grid, conversion losses included, and a 10 to 80 percent rapid charge about 50.9 kWh. What you pay then depends entirely on the tariff.
| Price | Full charge | 10 to 80% | Per 100 km |
|---|---|---|---|
| €0.20 / kWh | €13.08 | €10.18 | €2.94 |
| €0.40 / kWh | €26.16 | €20.36 | €5.88 |
| €0.59 / kWh | €38.59 | €30.03 | €8.67 |
These three price levels are calculation assumptions, not any one country tariff: they bracket what a driver meets between home charging and a rapid charger. Real prices vary widely by country, network and contract. See the full cost breakdown
CCS is the European rapid standard, so every rapid charger on the map will work.

How long does it take to rapid charge a Hyundai Kona Electric?
Allow 37 minutes to go from 10 to 80 percent on a station delivering at least 105 kW. On a less powerful station the time rises proportionally. Above it, the time no longer drops.
How long does it take to charge a Hyundai Kona Electric at home?
On a 7.4 kW home charger, allow around 8.8 hours for a 10 to 100 percent charge, the car drawing 7.4 kW in that case. One night is therefore more than enough.
Do you need an adapter to charge a Hyundai Kona Electric in Europe?
No. The Hyundai Kona Electric uses Type 2 and CCS, the European standards. It plugs straight into the public network in France, Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom, Belgium and Switzerland.
How these times are worked out
The 10 to 80 percent time on a station at least as powerful as the car is the manufacturer figure. For less powerful stations the time is computed from the energy to transfer and the station power, with 10 percent conversion losses. AC times follow the same method over a 10 to 100 percent charge. These are reliable orders of magnitude in mild conditions, not measurements.
