- The Kia EV9 is an electric three-row family SUV that’s all-new for 2024.
- I was impressed by the EV9’s driving dynamics, spacious and high-tech cabin, and striking design.
- Its elevated price tag and a few questionable cabin design choices kept the EV9 from perfection.
The three-row midsize SUV has replaced the minivan and the station wagon as America’s preferred form of family transportation.
So it’s only natural that carmakers would offer family SUVs in EV form.
Thus far, the three-row electric SUV market has been dominated by premium brands like the Tesla Model X, Rivian R1S, and Mercedes-Benz EQS.
This year, Kia became the first mainstream automotive brand to enter the space with its all-new EV9 SUV.
