FIRST LOOK: New 2023 Kia EV9: it’s BIG but is Kia’s Tesla Model X-beater brilliant as well?

#kiaev 9 # #elecrtriccars

Check out the review:

Among the concerns we get asked the most at Electrifying.com is what 7 seat vehicles do you recommend? Previously we have actually only been able to recommend the van-like Citroen e-Berlingo, the lacklustre and remarkably little Mercedes EQB or theTesla Model X, which tops ₤ 100,000 and is difficult to acquire.

So while the may be the most costly car has actually constructed, there's an excellent opportunity here for the Korean brand if they get the right – and from our first look at a pre-production car it seems like they are.

Kia has changed itself over the previous years from a budget brand to a one able to take on the premium players and the EV9 stands out versus the large premium vehicles from the likes of BMW and Audi, thanks to its fresh modern-day appearance and a high quality interior.

Joint Ginny as she takes an extensive take a look at the final production version of the brand- EV9 and do not forget to read our review of the car over at Electrifying.com.

Will the EV9 be on your dream list? Do you believe Kia is heading in the ideal direction with the EV9? Would you pick one over a Tesla Model X or Mercedes EQB? As constantly, we enjoy to hear what you believe so get typing in the remarks listed below.

    There are now so many things being made from old fishing nets, I starting to be rather sceptical 🤔

    Really like u are able to turn the back seats! The idea of a driving living room is awesome. Looking forward to see the Hyundai Ionic 7 – one of them might be my next family car 🤞

    I really wish that this was made by a US company so I could pay twice as much and watch it fall apart as I drive it out the showroom.

    Kia have been doing some great things these last few years. Whilst I really like the interior, sadly I’m not a fan of the exterior look (I wish I was, as I could really use a 7-seater EV!).

    Still, with such a people carrier shortage on the market, this is bound to be a success so long as it’s not priced out of contention.

    Features on demand – that’s a big no from me. Any manufacturer who fits all the bells and whistles as standard but won’t activate them until you pay extra is to be avoided. It’s a shame because it looks as though they’ve got most things right here.

    I am VERY against the subscription service heated seats and parking sensors… If they are installed, they should be utilized.

    Excellent work Ginny and electrifying team. Keep it up. We’ll await the new Santa Fe for comparison

    I was quite excited about this car until you mentioned “on-demand services ” It is as inviting as ULEZ and road pricing by the mile.

    I cant shake the feeling, but I feel Electrifying, with you now, almost felt a bit dissapointed?? I am in a sense..it looks for me like an 80`s car inside/dashboard area..With Features On Demand, I think we will have to pay alot more, for stuff that has been included untill now. No, I will wait for something else to come around
