What's New on KIA EV9?

Introduction

  • The Kia EV9 is a landmark vehicle for the Korean carmaker, for it is currently one of the most accomplished and awarded full-sized born-electric SUVs. With futuristic styling inside-out and tech-rich powertrain and features, the Kia EV9 is being offered in the UAE car market in two variants – Air and GT-Line. The colour options for Kia EV9 are Snow White, Pebble Grey, Aurora Black Pearl, Flare Red, Ivory Silver, Ocean Blue, Panthera Metal and Iceberg Green, with the last four colour options also available in the matte theme.

Exterior

  • The overall design of the Kia EV9 is eye-catching and futuristic, while not being too overboard in its approach. The EV-specific elements do catch one’s attention, with the traditional upright stance of a conventional SUV only helping it to make the look even more handsome.
  • The Kia EV9 has a ‘digital tiger face’ with a closed grille in the middle, which is becoming a norm for all-electric offerings from Kia. There are digital pattern lightings on the sides, with the EV9 having vertically aligned sweptback all-LED headlamps that are accentuated by zig-zag daytime running LEDs on their outer sides.
  • The side profile of the Kia EV9 exhibits its upright stance and long wheelbase, with the electric SUV having flush-type door handles, functional roof rails, and flared hexagonal wheel arches with gloss black cladding. The large 21-inch alloy aero machined alloy wheels look subjective but go well with the futuristic theme of the SUV. The clean-looking boot of the EV9 has Christmas tree-themed LED tail lamps on the outer edges.
  • Ride & Handling Key Highlights The suspension setup of the Kia EV9, comprising of Macpherson struts at the front and a five-link multi-link combination at the rear, delivers a well-sorted and comfortable ride quality. It also has a self-leveling damper system, which adjusts the ride height as and when needed. For a more planted ride quality and engaging driving experience, there are four driving modes in Kia EV9 – Eco, Normal, Sport, and Snow.
