New all-electric Hyundai Kona crossover to arrive next year

Hyundai has just announced its new B-segment 'Kona' crossover, with plans for an all-electric model to be introduced in 2018.

The Kona EV, which will share a platform with sister company Kia's Stonic crossover, is part of the brand's focus on alternatively fuelled vehicles. Hyundai recently launched the Ioniq hatchback, which is available as a hybrid, plug-in hybrid (PHEV) or full electric model – the first car from any manufacturer to be offered with three different electric drive options.
