2024 Kia EV9
WHEN THE FAMILY CAR GOES ELECTRIC
The move to electric vehicles is no longer confined to sedans, vans and small SUVs. The Kia EV9, a three-row electric SUV, is the first such vehicle to be marketed by a mainstream automaker. And that's excellent news, given Kia's track record in producing large-format vehicles like the Kia Telluride or electric vehicles like the EV6.
This time around, the 2024 Kia EV9 relies on an exceptional silhouette and a sophisticated design, but above all, on exceptional technology that gives it autonomy, comfort and safety for the whole family. The new SUV offers a combination of performance, range and interior space that puts it at the top of its class.
POWERFUL PERFORMANCE
The 2024 Kia EV9 is available with a choice of two powertrains. The standard model is equipped with a 201 hp rear-wheel drive electric motor, while the all-wheel drive version is powered by two electric motors for a combined total of 379 hp.
Kia claims that the rear-wheel drive EV9 can travel up to 480 kilometres on a single charge, which is comparable to the range of some comparably-sized gasoline SUVs. The all-wheel drive model offers a range of 435 kilometres, while the sportier ST-Line is rated at 390 kilometres.
In fact, each version will be equipped with a long-range battery, a 99.8 kWh pack. The charging capacity is unequivocal, with a maximum of 350 kW and a capacity of 800 volts, as is the Kia EV6, for example. Kia claims a state of charge of 10-80% of the battery in less than 25 minutes with a DC fast charger, also known as a Level 3 fast charger, found in many public charging stations.
To ensure driving pleasure, the Kia EV9 will be available with four driving modes - eco, normal, sport and customized. Each of these modes modifies the response of the steering wheel and gas pedal. Sport mode goes even further, making the seats even more dynamic, tightening on the driver to hold him or her in place.
GENEROUS INTERIOR SPACE
The EV9 is 4,929 mm long, about the same size as the gasoline-powered Kia Telluride. It offers generous interior space, with seating for up to seven. The front seats are comfortable and supportive, while the rear seats are spacious and comfortable.
The third row of seats is also comfortable for adults. The rear cargo space is 572 litres, about the same as in the gasoline-powered Telluride. This can be increased to 2,319 litres with the rear seats folded down.
A MODERN, TECHNOLOGICAL INTERIOR
We can't talk about the KIA EV9 2024 without mentioning technology. It features a modern, high-tech interior with a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel and a 12.3-inch infotainment screen. The infotainment system is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The EV9 is also equipped with a full range of driver assistance systems, including blind spot monitoring, automated emergency braking and adaptive cruise control.
SEVERAL VERSIONS AVAILABLE
KIA likes to innovate. This time, the EV9 2024 is the first Kia vehicle to use a new naming convention for its trim levels. In Canada, Wind and Land versions will be available, as well as a GT-Line package.
The latter includes 21-inch alloy wheels, a roof bar, dark belt mouldings, gloss black exterior mirrors, redesigned front and rear bumpers, a panoramic sunroof, rear reclining seats, a head-up display and an optional performance boost.
The KIA EV9 2024 is a large electric SUV that meets every requirement, from comfort to safety to range. It's KIA's next step towards the electrification of its range.
