Performance and Powertrain Options
The 2026 Kia EV9 offers two powertrain configurations. The single-motor rear-wheel-drive (RWD) option produces 215 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. This configuration accelerates from zero to sixty miles per hour in about 7.7 seconds. For those seeking more dynamic performance, the GT-Line AWD option delivers 379 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. This allows the EV9 to accelerate from zero to sixty mph in just 5.0 seconds. Both configurations feature a one-speed automatic transmission and regenerative braking systems, ensuring a smooth, efficient drive.
Advanced Battery Technology and Charging Capabilities
The 2026 Kia EV9 is equipped with advanced lithium-ion battery technology. It offers two capacity options: 76.1 kWh for the LightRWD model and 99.8 kWh for other trims. These batteries are placed under the floor to maximize interior space and lower the vehicle’s center of gravity. This improves stability.
Charging the EV9 is fast and efficient. The vehicle supports AC normal charging via a Type 2 connector and DC fast charging with a CCS Type 2 port. With a 350-kilowatt fast charger, the RWD model charges from 10% to 80% in just 20 minutes. The AWD version takes 24 minutes to reach the same level. With an all-electric range of up to 305 miles, the Kia EV9 offers longer trips with fewer stops to charge.
Spacious and Versatile Interior
The 2026 Kia EV9 is designed for families and adventurers. It seats up to seven passengers with ample legroom. The second-row seats slide and recline, while the third-row seats feature a split-folding design. This allows you to optimize cargo space. When configured for maximum storage, the EV9 provides an impressive 81.7 cubic feet of cargo capacity.
Interior comfort is enhanced by features such as dual-zone climate control, ventilated front seats, and ambient mood lighting with 64 color options. Advanced infotainment systems, including a 12.3-inch touchscreen and a 14-speaker Meridian premium audio system, keep everyone entertained on the journey.
Cutting-Edge Safety and Driver Assistance
Safety is a top priority in the 2026 Kia EV9. The SUV comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of active and passive safety features.
