Performance

From a performance perspective, the 2024 Kia EV9 features a few different levels of power that you’ll have to choose from. The standard Permanent Synchronous Motor comes paired with a 632V lithium-ion battery that allows for the production of 215 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque. If you’re not satisfied with those figures, then you can always upgrade to higher trim levels to access AWD options with a 552V lithium-ion battery. These editions can achieve 379 horsepower and 443 lb.-ft. of torque, as well as 389 horsepower and 516 lb.-ft. of torque, so you certainly won’t be falling behind the competition in Batavia while on Route 25. We also can’t ignore the fact that this vehicle features a standard Drive Mode Select system with Sport, Eco, Normal, and My Mode options. And if you opt for an AWD trim level, you’ll also get the additional Snow mode!

Charging and Range Capability

If you’re looking to go the distance to reach Prairie Lathem Park, then the 2024 Kia EV9 will be right by your side with its amazing capacity for travel. Getting ready is a simple process when you make use of the available Level 2 Charger that can have the battery fully ready to go in just under seven hours. There are circumstances where you may not have hours to wait though. In those instances, the Level 3 Charger will come in handy with its roughly 20 minutes of charging time, though this option should be used sparingly to maintain the health of your EV’s battery. In terms of capacity, this SUV has a standard 230 miles of EPA-estimated all-electric range, and an available 304 miles of all-electric range¹ with the Light Long Range RWD trim.

Comfort and Convenience

While the 2024 Kia EV9 offers a healthy variety of new and exciting elements, it doesn’t lose the comfort and convenience that people expect to indulge in with an SUV. The standard tri-zone auto climate control comes standard and features an auto de-fog system that you’ll no doubt find great use for. Both heated² and ventilated front seats come standard as well, so you and your copilot can set your preferences depending on weather conditions to make yourselves as comfortable as possible. If you’re looking for a feeling of expansion, then we strongly encourage you to check out the dual sunroofs that are exclusive to the Land AWD and GT-Line AWD editions.
