The overview

The Kia EV9 lands in the heart of the popular mid-sized three-row SUV as the first fully electric family hauler offered by a mainstream brand. The six- or seven-seater is based on the E-GMP platform used for other Genesis, Hyundai, and Kia electric vehicles, and it's about the same size as the Telluride SUV. Single-motor with 215-hp rear-wheel drive or 379-hp, dual-motor all-wheel drive are offered. The 99.8 kWh battery provides an estimated EPA range of 305 miles for the long range rear-wheel drive, and 283 miles for the all-wheel drive. Both AC and DC-fast charging are relatively quick. The EV9 is quick and quiet. The ride is a bit firm but comfortable and handling is responsive but not sporty. Some controls are unusual but are easy enough to get used to. All versions come standard with a full suite of advanced safety and driver assist features including a lane change assist when using the adaptive cruise control.

Behind the data

Latest source update: September 11, 2026

Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.

Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
