The 2025 Kia EV9 has arrived, and it continues to be a game-changer in the electric SUV market. Kia’s innovative powertrain options give families EV efficiency, quick recharging times, and plenty of power on both long road trips and trips to the store. The EV9 also comes with technological features that drivers love, from easy-to-use driver assistance to connected infotainment.
1. Efficiency, Power, and Range
The EV9 offers four powertrains to suit all types of drivers, but no matter which one you choose, you’ll enjoy impressive efficiency, fast charger compatibility, and plenty of range. The entry-level Light RWD has a 76.1 kWh lithium-ion battery that recharges with a level 2 charger from 10 to 100 percent in under 7 hours. Its permanent magnet synchronous motor produces 215 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque, with EPA-estimated efficiency of 88 MPGe and 230 miles of range.
The EV9’s remaining four trims come with a 99.8 kWh battery, which provides an extended range of up to 304 miles and recharges in under 9 hours. Wind AWD and Land AWD trims increase power output to 379 horsepower and 443 lb.-ft. of torque, while the premium GT-Line AWD provides 379 horsepower and 516 lb.-ft. of torque. Every model can utilize a fast charger to recharge from 10 to 80 percent in under 25 minutes.
2. Family-Friendly Tech Features
If you’ve ever had a tough time communicating with passengers in the third row, you’ll appreciate the EV9’s standard Passenger Talk feature. This technology uses a microphone and the audio system’s speakers to project your voice to the back of the cabin, so you don’t need to raise your voice or turn around. With Quiet Mode, front-row passengers can enjoy the sound system while the rear speakers are muted to allow rear passengers sleep or use other devices.
3. Safety and Driver Assistance
Kia’s commitment to safety has earned the EV9 an IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ award. To keep your family safe on the road, it comes with 10 airbags and 25 standard driver assistance features. Its Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2 provides warnings, steering assistance, and automatic braking to help prevent a collision with another vehicle or a pedestrian. Drivers also enjoy convenience features like Highway Driving Assist 2, which can manage your steering, speed, and lane changes on compatible roads.
4. Spacious and Comfortable Cabin
With SynTex synthetic leather seat trim, LED interior lighting, and a tri-zone auto climate control system, the EV9’s cabin is comfortable and modern. The seven-passenger Light RWD and Wind AWD trims come with a second-row bench seat, while the remaining three trims accommodate six passengers with second-row captain’s chairs. With either configuration, third-row passengers can enter and exit easily, thanks to one-touch sliding and folding second-row seats.
