Hyundai will have the EV Kona on the street in a couple months. 258 mile range for 37k before tax credits and discounting when Hyundai gets the volume up. The Car mags that have reviewed it, love it. Good looking small SUV unlike that butt ugly front end of the Model 3 Tesla Sedan.

...

Nice, but the Kona is a subcompact. The Model 3 is midsize.

And what does it say about the EV market, that more competition will be showing up?

SUV vs Sedan is the correct comparison. Sedans sales are dying in the USA.(see Ford) A family of four or five will fit fine in the Kona. Tesla missed the mark, the 3 should have been a small SUV for the N. American market. Or at least a platform that could support both.
