Overview

The Kia EV9 Long Range RWD (2023-…) is an all-electric rear-wheel drive SUV. It came out in 2023. Brand new, the car starts around €72,490.

The Kia EV9 Long Range RWD (2023-…) has a 99.8 kWh battery pack, allowing it to travel up to 472 km on a single charge. The car has an average efficiency of 20.3 kWh per 100 km (or 4.92 km per kWh) — ranked №185 out of 824 electric vehicles.

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Kia EV9 Long Range RWD (2023-…) achieves a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 9.4 seconds (placing it at №75 out of 118 ranked positions, among 824 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions) and attains a maximum speed of 185 km/h.

Its powertrain provides a power output of up to 150 kW (201 hp) and a torque of 350 Nm.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

Kia EV9 Long Range RWD (2023-…) achieves a real-world range of 472 km, placing it at №94 among 334 ranked positions. However, this range is subject to several influences:

Speed: Traveling at higher speeds reduces battery life.
Temperature: Extreme cold or hot weather can affect range.
Terrain: Hilly or mountainous landscapes decrease range.
Driving habits: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
Feature usage: Climate control and media systems also influence range.

It's important to acknowledge that these are estimations, and your actual driving range may differ. Consider these factors when planning your trip and be ready for potential charging stops.

Utilize the interactive EV Navigation map for trip planning assistance.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?

The Kia EV9 Long Range RWD (2023-…) in Europe comes with a CCS Type 2 charging port. It can be charged at home using a standard domestic socket or at any public AC charging station with the compatible cable. It's important to note that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 10.5 kW, resulting in approximately 46 km of range added per hour of charging.

For significantly faster charging, public DC fast-charging stations are available. Although the car can achieve a maximum DC charging rate of 210 kW, factors such as battery temperature and charge level may affect the actual charging speed.

Use our EV Charging Calculator to estimate charging time, rate, and cost.

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)?

The size and weight specifications for Kia EV9 Long Range RWD (2023-…) are as follows:

Length: 5010 mm
Width: 2300 mm (including side mirrors) or 1980 mm (excluding side mirrors)
