Today, we delve into the world of Hyundai and Kia's groundbreaking move with the Kia EV9, a three-row electric SUV. Yes, you heard that right, folks - they're shaking up the market dominated by gas-guzzlers. But with great power comes great competition, as brands like Volvo, Lucid, and Porsche are hot on their heels. The EV9 boasts a futuristic exterior, with a price tag ranging from $55,000 to $75,000 for the top-tier GT line. It's a bold step into the luxury space, targeting the discerning 45-year-old buyer.
Inside, the EV9 is a masterclass in design and functionality. The interior is a blueprint for others to follow, with impeccable fit and finish. From physical buttons for seat heaters to intuitive controls, every detail exudes quality. However, there are some gimmicky features like hidden HVAC controls and capacitive buttons. The spacious cabin prioritizes comfort, especially in the second row, with reclining options and ample storage. Material quality is top-notch, with attention to detail evident throughout.
Under the hood, the EV9 shines with its dedicated electric platform and two battery pack options. The larger 800-volt battery offers impressive power but charges slower than its counterpart. The driving experience is a revelation, offering quiet operation, good acceleration, and a comfortable ride. The EV9's lease rates make it a compelling choice for those venturing into the world of electric family vehicles. Despite some minor flaws like head toss over uneven terrain, the EV9 stands out as a game-changer in the electric SUV market.
