5 reasons to buy the 2024 Kia EV9

1. Spacious seating 

Traveling together in the three-row EV9 is a luxurious and spacious affair. For your youngest passengers, every rear-row seat is equipped with a full set of LATCH fixtures for the fitting of front or rear-facing child and infant seats. On longer trips, your crew can truly relax in every row of the EV9. Front and second row passengers get 41.4 inches or 42.8 inches of legroom respectively, with the third row boasting up to 32.0 inches of legroom when the second row is equipped with captain's chairs. 

2. Base trim power 

The EV9 offers different battery sizes and motor configurations across its five trims, allowing you to prioritize performance, range, or a blend of both. A great example of this is seen across the base trim models. The base Light trim features a 76.1-kWh battery pack and onboard motor, delivering 215 hp and up to 230 miles of EPA-estimated range on a single charge.

Opt for the Light Long Range model with a larger 99.8-kWh battery for 201 hp, and an EPA-estimated 304 miles when fully charged.

3. Standard features 

Passenger comfort and convenience take priority for the EV9 interior, with a cabin designed with your crew in mind. For your convenience in the driver's seat, there’s a tilt and telescopic steering wheel that can adjust to your reach and height, as well as audio and cruise control buttons on the steering wheel#. Each row features drink holders and cubbies for essential item storage. Choose the 2024 EV9 Land or GT-Line trims, and you’ll also get rear window shades and ambient interior lighting. 

4. Driver aids 

No less than 11 different driver assistance features are offered as standard for the 2024 EV9. These include driver attention sensors, a rear seat reminder alert, and exit assist functionality, which can prevent the rear doors from being opened when sensors are alerted to traffic approaching from behind. This makes the EV9 a great companion for whatever your daily travels throw at you. 

5. Storage and cargo 

With space for essentials, cargo cubes for your bigger items, and the ability to haul when required, life’s big adventures are no problem for the EV9. A large center console offers front-row passengers a place to stow items, as well as providing a deep bin to the rear for your crew in the second row. Behind the third row is 20.2 cu-ft of storage space. If you want more, look out for the Wind trim and above as these models can tow an estimated 5,000 lbs, when properly equipped.
