Kia EV9 SUV

150kW Air 99.8kWh 5dr Auto [2025]

Kia already boasts several SUVs and crossovers in its line-up, with the Niro and the Soul, to name just two. The new Sportage turned heads with its aggressive front end, and soon, it'll be joined by the new EV3. Even the EV6, despite its sportscar-like dynamics, is large enough to be considered a crossover of sorts. And, of course, who could forget the Sorento – offering a seven-seater 4x4 experience which Kia hopes will tempt people away from the the likes of Range Rover – the largest car in Kia’s fleet. 

Until now.

Thanks to Kia's latest brand-new all-electric vehicle, the EV9, the Sorento’s ‘big boy’ reign is now ending. It is longer and taller than the Sorento and offers around a third more space for your bags, all while emitting no harmful gases, and all performed in comparative silence. 

But is it any good? Kia is hoping so – and so are we, as Kia has forged quite a reputation in recent years.

While it isn’t necessarily going to give sleepless nights to the Board of Directors at Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz – let alone Land Rover – Kia has been on the rise for many years, and it wants would-be customers of these brands to give it a chance. The rest of its EV range has won plenty of plaudits and, indeed, awards. 

So, the EV9 already has plenty to live up to. No pressure, then!
