*FIRST LOOK*Kia EV9 – Why this 6/7 seat EV will be the new market leader ! |4k

A couple of weeks ago I got my very first appearance and the all new Kia . It is packed complete on innovative functions and innovation that blazes a trail in the big electrical segment. It had edgy looks that I make sure will divide viewpoint but there is no doubt it is a well thought out automobile style.

    I used to recommend Hyundai and Kia to everyone as great value vehicles. No longer the case. Plus, the recalls on their products would be a major concern.

    My colleague couldn’t drive her Kona EV nor park it near her house due to the risk of fire….

      Which EV hasn’t had recalls or problems? The problem related to the recall only affects about 7% of the vehicles. As far as Kona is concerned, it’s the last generation related to malfunctioning batteries.

    Kia showing the other legacy makers what can be done. Personally it’s not my taste in design but for some it will be.

    You can’t deny that Kia/Hyundai are leading the way as far as innovative design and interior technology is concerned, but this comes at a price point that is still out of reach for your average car buyer.
    Like to know your thoughts Pete on where our battery technology will be say 10 years from now and how this will effect residual values of EV’s on sale just now ?
    As for the EV 9… I’ll wait to see on in the metal before passing judgment on its looks !
    Great video as always.

      Still half the price of a top spec BMW iX 🤷‍♂️

    Kia have done it again with a great innovative car , watch other manufacturers follow these ideas. But all comes at a rather large price.

    Not sure on the looks yet but it sure sounds an impressive motor

    It’s certainly a bold looking vehicle and the interiour does look accomodating. It’s just the price of some of these EV’s that’s keeping me staying the fosil fuels for the time being…

    A big beast of a car with interesting tech in it. The new Defender has that rear mirror camera system as I had it in the car I had on test for a day at launch. It took a bit of getting used to but by the end of the day I really liked it. The ability to charge an e bike is a game changer for me. Maybe a replacement for our i-Pace.

    Its looks are err challenging . How can any car that big and heavy possibly be green ? For me hell on wheels . I want a well built car with NO tech , a 1988 Saab 9000 , perfect.

    The Peugeot 806. Had swivel seats and picnic facilities. As did the equivalent Citroen and Fiat. Way back in the 90’s

    Interesting and a good look over. It’s great 👍 However it all turned a bit sour when the prices came up. Wonder how many we’ll see on the roads….

    Great car and very well covered, given the very limited time you have at these events. Love how Kia are really helping to drive the EV market. I do love the blind spot cameras coming up on the dash. To be fair Tesla’s do it too, but having no instrument binnacle, the camera view appears on the main screen, which requires a look to the side.

    What an amazing car and I totally get the Judge Dredd thing!! Shame it’s so expensive but if I could get one it would have to be the range topper with Vehicle to Load, that’s quite a concept. I could take my 50 inch telly camping, lol (just kidding).
    You know Ped, when you do these EV vlogs you should call yourself ‘Electro-Ped’, just an idea to swill around…….

    Interesting comment about the door mirror/camera issue. Harry’s reel on the EQXX revealed that Mercedes have door mirrors on the 1200km range family car because cameras draw unnecessary power from the batteries. A mirror is aerodynamic as you make it.

    That must be a serious contender to the Defender , be interesting to see what its off-road capabilities are, love the looks , mighty impressive 😊

    A good walk-around video Ped. Will be interesting to see what it is like on the road but it’s going to have to be beyond awesome to justify the price I’m afraid.

    Great review! On the face of it these seem expensive, but prices of cars are high and I think you get a lot of bank for your buck. After all, other big SUV’s are even more.

    I would imagine these will be a big hit on the lease markets for sure. Just got to get one for a proper drive review Ped!
