The Kia EV9 GT (2025-…) is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 373 kW (501 hp) of power and 545 lb-ft of torque.
This enables a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 4.3 seconds (№27 out of 118 ranked positions, among 945 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions) and a top speed of 124 mph.
How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?
The estimated real-world range for Kia EV9 GT (2025-…) is 237 miles, ranking it №137 out of 263 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.
What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?
The Kia EV9 GT (2025-…) in the USA is equipped with a Tesla (NACS) 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 24 miles of range added per hour.
For faster charging, use DC fast-charging stations. The Kia EV9 GT (2025-…) 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.
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.
How big is it? What are the dimensions (length, width, height)?
Kia EV9 GT (2025-…) comes in the following dimensions:
Length: 197.4 in
Width: 90.6 in (including side mirrors) or 77.9 in (excluding side mirrors)
Height: 70.1 in
Wheelbase: 122 in (distance between the center of the front and rear wheels)
Curb weight: 5800 lbs (weight of the empty car, no people or cargo)
How much cargo space does it offer? Does it have a front trunk?
Behind the rear seats of the Kia EV9 GT (2025-…), you'll find 20.2 cubic feet of storage space (№62 out of 162 ranked positions, among 945 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions).
Folding down the rear seats expands the total cargo capacity to 84.5 cubic feet (№29 out of 196 ranked positions, among 945 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions).
Frunk capacity: The front trunk is called a "frunk", and it offers an additional 1.8 cubic feet for storing small items.
Is it suitable for towing? What is the maximum towing capacity?
The Kia EV9 GT (2025-…) can safely tow up to 5000 lbs, provided that the trailer has its own braking system.
