Kia EV9 Standard Range RWD FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
The Kia EV9 Standard Range RWD (2023-…) is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 160 kW (215 hp) of power and 258 lb-ft of torque.
This enables a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 7.7 seconds (№61 out of 120 ranked positions, among 1014 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions) and a top speed of 118 mph.
The estimated real-world range for Kia EV9 Standard Range RWD (2023-…) is 219 miles, ranking it №163 out of 272 ranked positions. Several conditions can influence this range:
- Speed: The battery drains faster at higher speeds.
- Temperature: Extreme temperatures can impact range.
- Terrain: Range is reduced on hilly or mountainous terrain.
- Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as frequent acceleration and braking, decrease efficiency.
- Feature utilization: Climate control and media system usage also affect range.
These figures are approximations, and your actual driving range may vary. When planning trips, consider these factors and be prepared for potential charging stops.

The Kia EV9 Standard Range RWD (2023-…) in the USA is equipped with a CCS Type 1 charging port. You can charge it conveniently at home using a standard outlet, or utilize any public AC charging station with the appropriate cable. However, the car's built-in charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging speed to 10.9 kW, which translates to roughly 29 miles of range added per hour.
For faster charging, use DC fast-charging stations. The Kia EV9 Standard Range RWD (2023-…) supports a maximum DC charging rate of 210 kW, but it's important to note that battery temperature and current charge level can affect the actual charging speed you'll experience.
To estimate charging time, rate, and cost, you can use EV Charging Calculator.
Kia EV9 models in the USA will adopt NACS charging port instead of CCS Type 1 starting in 2025. Please note that due to its 800V architecture, the Kia EV9's charging speed is limited to 100kW at 400V DC chargers.
