Kia EV9 (2024-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Imposing looks	Some slightly disappointing cabin materials
Hugely practical seven-seat cabin	Dynamically very average
Even entry-level car is stuffed with tech	Rear visibility isn’t great

Quick Summary

The Kia EV9 (2024-present) is Kia's flagship, a large, luxurious, 100% battery-powered SUV designed to compete with premium rivals. Even the entry-level 197bhp rear-wheel-drive version comes with seven seats and extensive luxury kit, driver aids, and technology. Higher-spec versions offer nearly double the power, four-wheel drive, and can be configured with six seats for a more opulent layout. All models feature a substantial 99.8kWh battery, providing a long range of over 300 miles.

The EV9 excels in practicality, offering immense space in all three rows and a very useful 333 litres of boot space even with all seven seats in use, expandable significantly by electrically folding the rear seats. Its infotainment system is a technological tour-de-force, featuring twin 12.3-inch screens and a 5.3-inch climate control screen, along with comprehensive standard equipment and safety features. While its coil spring suspension means the ride isn't as supple as some premium competitors, it offers impressive refinement at motorway speeds and very fast 800-volt charging capability, going from 10-80% in just 24 minutes.

Best for: Drivers seeking a hugely capable, practical, all-electric family SUV with advanced technology, a long range, and fast charging.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising ultimate ride comfort, plush interior material quality, or dynamic handling typically found in some premium German rivals.
