Kia's EV9 is an all-new three row all-electric crossover from the Korean automaker. It promises between 230 and 304 miles of all-electric range, space for up to seven passengers, and heaps of tech inside and out. Check out the full video and review to learn more!
Exterior:
The Kia EV9 is similar in size to Kia's gas-powered Telluride three-row crossover. The EV9 is 197.2 inches long, 77.9 inches wide, and 68.9 inches tall; the Telluride is 196.9 inches long, 78.3 inches wide, and 68.9 inches tall.
Trims:
The base model of the EV9 is the Light, which has 230 miles of range, 215 hp and is rear-wheel-drive only, thanks to a a 76.1 kWh battery. The Light Long Range has a larger 99.8 kWh battery, with horsepower dropping down to 201 but range jumping up to 304 miles.
Then the Wind, Land, and GT-Line all offer about 270-280 miles of range, all-wheel-drive, and a stout 379 horsepower and 443 lb ft of torque, with a maximum of 516 lb ft of torque. 0-60 MPH happens in a quick 4.5 seconds in the loaded GT Line.
The base trim (Light) starts at $56,000 including destination; a loaded GT Line like the one we tested goes all the way up to roughly $78,000.
Interior:
The interior of the EV9 is highlighted by a pair of 12.3-inch display screens, one for the infotainment system and one for the digital dashboard. The infotainment system has wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto Connectivity.
The EV9 is either a seven-seater (with a bench seat in the second row) or a six-seater, with captain's chairs in the second row. Our loaded GT Line had heated and cooled front and second-row seats, a heated steering wheel, dual moonroofs, leather seats, a heads-up display, and second-row captains chairs with power folding and leg rest functions.
So how does all this stack up on the road? Is it enough to top the Tesla Model X and Rivian R1S? Check out our full video to find out.
