3 complaints in comparison to my same 2022 model
3 COMPLAINTS - in comparison to my former 2022 Kona EV:
HOME SCREEN VIEW MAP - on 2025 it is so dark during the day as to be almost not readable (see pic); whereas on the 2022 Home screen view map, the map was easily visible during the day. Have design engineers make the 2025 map visible during the day.
2025 AUTO HEADLIGHT SENSOR IS TOO SENSITIVE - even in bright overcast day, the headlights are on. I literally have to turn OFF to conserve batteries. This is not efficient and cuts into driving range. Have design engineers make 2025 headlight sensor less sensitive so one can leave setting on AUTO - as was case with 2022. Many complaints like this on OWNERS' FORUM!!
SUN ROOF ISSUE - on 2022 I could tilt the sun roof for flow thru ventilation even on days when temps were in low 80s 'F°'and manually almost close the solid movable ceiling panel, thus getting great ventilation with no solar heat gain AND NOT having to use AC. On 2025, the only way to tilt to sun roof for more flow thru ventilation is to have the solid movable ceiling panel FULLY OPEN, thus exposing interior of car to great solar heat gain. Thus, I am using AC more often, further burdening the battery and decreasing my driving range. Have design engineers make change to the LIMITED model back to manually adjusting the solid movable ceiling panel to allow good flow thru ventilation and no solar gain.
ADDITIONAL ISSUE - Factory 12 battery was bad and replaced at 600 miles
