What Type of Car is KIA EV 9?

The Kia EV9 is an all-electric SUV that has been designed for families and tech enthusiasts alike. It has accomplished this by offering you a spacious interior, 7 seats, a large range, advanced safety features, and a cutting-edge responsive infotainment system. 

Its electric powertrain also delivers efficient performance - making it a great choice for modern drivers looking to get into EV SUVs.


Battery, Power Train, Range, & Charging

With its 99.8 kWh Li-ion polymer battery and Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor, the 180.90 Ah capacity battery on the EV9 can give you up to 318 kW of power. 

This is more than ample enough to give you a max speed of 124 MPH, with an acceleration from 0 - 62 MPH in only 5.3 seconds.

Range

When it comes to range, with electric energy consumption in the city of only 147 Wh/km, this can get you an impressive range of up to 480 miles on a single charge.

Moving more to the open road, you will see an increase in power needed. Going up to 202 Wh/km consumed.

As a result, with both city and motorway driving combined, you would expect to see a range on a full battery of around 349 miles, depending on your driving style, weather, wear and tear on the car, and road conditions.

Exterior

When it comes to the exterior, the Kia EV9's exterior is a bold statement of modern Electric Vehicle (EV) design. This statement is due to it bringing the future direction of Kia's aesthetic and technological advancements to life for the first time.

With sleek lines and robust proportions, you get an SUV that gives you a striking presence that commands attention while you are on the road.

At the front, the EV9 features Kia's signature "Digital Tiger Face". Furthermore, the front also includes slim, futuristic LED headlights that seamlessly integrate into the grille area - emphasising the SUV's width and stability.

The grille itself is a patterned, closed-off design, which helps extend your battery range as it has been optimised for aerodynamics. On top of this, it also houses advanced sensors that enable the car's advanced safety and driver assistance systems as well.

The side profile of the EV9 is characterised by clean, smooth surfaces and a sharp, horizontal character line that runs from the headlights straight to the rear lights.

This side profile not only enhances its dynamic look but also improves aerodynamic efficiency - further helping to give it an extensive battery range on a single charge.

With flush door handles and a sleek, glass roof all help to contribute to the minimalist yet functional aesthetic - giving you a form and functional design.

Moving to the rear, the EV9 boasts distinctive LED rear lights that wrap around the sides of the vehicle - enhancing the visual width and providing you with a futuristic signature, especially during night time driving.

The vertical orientation of the lights and the sculpted tailgate further enhance the vehicle's modern stance on the road.

The EV9's wheels are designed not only for style but also for efficiency by featuring aerodynamic designs that reduce drag and help improve your overall range.

Available in various sizes and designs, these wheels allow for personalisation while emphasising the EV9's green credentials.


Kia Ev9 Infotainment

Interior

When it comes to the interior, the Kia EV9's interior gives you a beautiful blend of innovation, comfort, and style simultaneously.

At first glance, the cabin's futuristic layout captivates you with its clean lines and gorgeous aesthetics - emphasising both space and light. 

Spacious Layout & Flexible Seating

The EV9's interior has been ingeniously designed to maximise space, offering you ample room for your passengers and items alike.

With its flexible seating configurations, this SUV caters to your various needs - whether you are embarking on a family road trip or transporting larger items, the seats can be customised to your unique requirements at the time.

The seats are not only stylish but have also been ergonomically designed to provide you and your passengers and family with support and comfort even on the longest journeys.


High-Quality Materials

It is clear from when you step inside that every surface and component inside the EV9 speaks of quality.

From the soft-touch materials to the premium upholstery options, Kia has not compromised on the cabin's look and feel, and this is more than evident.

The use of sustainable and eco-friendly materials further underscores Kia's commitment to environmental responsibility without sacrificing on your luxury.

Advanced Technology

The dashboard is made to a great design, featuring a sleek, ultra-wide display that integrates both the instrument cluster and infotainment system well together.

This setup not only enhances the cabin's modern appeal but also puts a huge amount of information and entertainment options at your fingertips. 

Voice control, gesture recognition, and touch-sensitive surfaces all help to ensure that controlling the EV9's features feels both intuitive and futuristic simultaneously.

Ambient Lighting and Panoramic Views

When you want to set a mood inside the EV9, this becomes effortless with its customisable ambient lighting - which can be adjusted to match your mood or the time of day. 

Large windows and an optional panoramic sunroof flood the interior with natural light, further enhancing your sense of feeling open and connected to the outside world - which is always essential on those long drives.

Quiet Cabin

Thanks to its electric powertrain and sound-insulating materials, the EV9's interior can only be seen as a sanctuary.

Chippenham Motor Company Ltd is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd's permissions as a Principal Firm allows Chippenham Motor Company Ltd and MRG to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.
