Navigation - When A Destination Is Set; Tips For Improving Range When Using The Climate Control System; Tips For Improving Range While Driving - Hyundai KONA Electric 2023 Owner's Manual

The range that is displayed on the
instrument cluster after completing
a recharge may vary significantly
depending on previous driving
patterns.
When the previous driving patterns
include aggressive or high speed
driving (for example, predominantly
highway miles, etc.), the estimated
range on the next full charge will be
lower than normal.
When the previous driving patterns
are predominantly mild or economical
(for example, city driving), the
estimated range on the next full
charge will be increased.
Calculated range may depend on
many factors such as the charge
amount of the high voltage battery,
weather, temperature, durability of
the battery, geographical features,
heater/air conditioning use and
driving style. When the ambient
temperature is low such as in winter,
the actual driving distance may
be reduced due to battery cold
temperature effects.
Natural degradation may occur with
the high voltage battery depending
on the number of years the vehicle
is used. This may reduce the vehicle
range.
Navigation - When a Destination is
Set
When a destination is set using the
vehicle navigation system (if equipped),
the vehicle range may change. The
vehicle range is recalculated using the
destination route information. While
driving, the range may vary based on
traffic conditions, driving pattern and
vehicle settings, etc.
Tips for Improving Range When
Using the Climate Control
System
Operating the climate control system
consumes electrical energy from
the EV battery. Continuous use may
reduce the vehicle range.
When using the climate control
system, it is recommended to set
the control to 72°F (22°C) AUTO. The
climate control system has been
optimized to operate at this setting for
maximum comfort and efficiency.
When possible, use the DRIVER ONLY
feature on the climate control system.
This will discontinue airflow to the
passenger side and reduces climate
control power consumption.
Tips for Improving Range While
Driving
Depress and hold the accelerator
pedal to maintain speed and drive
economically.
Gradually depress and release the
accelerator pedal when accelerating
or decelerating.
Always maintain specified tire
pressures.
Do not use unnecessary electrical
components while driving.
Do not load unnecessary items in the
vehicle.
Do not mount parts that may increase
air resistance.
Set regen to a higher level 1-2 using
the steering wheel paddles.
