Hyundai Kona Electric keeps an estimated 36% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #500 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Hyundai Kona Electric retains an estimated 36% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #500 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 40% five-year average for EV in its class by 4 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Hyundai Kona Electric sheds about 17% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $32,675 it falls to around $11,730 by year five — a five-year loss near $20,945, about $11.48 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Hyundai Kona Electric bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

From about $32,675 when new it drops to roughly $11,730 after five years — a loss near $20,945 (36% of its original MSRP retained).
Around 2 years old: that is just past the steepest depreciation, so you skip the biggest drop while the value curve is flattening.
