Video Summary
Here is the summary of the YouTube video review of the electric car:The Kia EV9 is a three-row electric SUV with a boxy and edgy shape, resembling a modern, larger Kia Soul
The GT-Line trim includes 21-inch wheels
There are embedded buttons with haptic feedback that disappear when the car is off
The second-row seats can be moved with a button, equipped with sensors to stop if they detect obstructions like knees.
The GT-Line has all-wheel drive and a larger battery, almost 100-kilowatt hours
Range is slightly less than other trims due to AWD and higher horsepower
The GT-Line is a six-passenger configuration
Range on a full charge in the winter is about 400 km, and driving at 21-22 degrees Celsius causes it to drop depending on driving habits.
During testing in one foot of snow, the EV9 performed well in snow mode, where all-wheel drive is increased; drivers in other vehicles were getting stuck
The step-in height is nearly perfect
Physical buttons are included for heated seats and steering wheel
It has next-generation clear, color head-up display
The car also has a digital rearview mirror
The middle console offers a configurable storage area with a wireless charging pad.
Consider that this review took place in Canada, and the EV9 qualifies for federal and potential provincial rebates, depending on the province you live in
The test EV9 GT Line model costs $81,495 Canadian including freight. The reviewer notes that there are not many other similar vehicles in this category outside of the Rivian R1S and premium luxury brands such as Mercedes or Tesla (Model X)
The reviewer noted that the door handles performed well in freezing conditions due to a pinch sensor safety feature
The test EV9 drove up a hill that a four-wheel-drive Toyota Tacoma could not.
The rear seats can be folded down with the press of a button
The center console is well designed.
