Are you looking for the electric SUV of your dreams? It might soon be right here at Preston's Kia. We are excited to bring you the brand-new Kia EV9. The EV9 is the first fully electric three-row SUV from Kia, and delivers a combination of exciting performance, impressive design, and state-of-the-art features. Here is what you need to know about the EV9 before you visit Preston's Kia to take one for a test drive.
The EV9 has three fully electric powertrain options. The standard rear-mounted motor has an estimated driving range of 230 miles and produces 215 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The Light Long Range powertrain is also rear-mounted, and has an estimated driving range of 301 miles. Light Long Range models produce 201 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Finally, dual-motor models have all-wheel drive, and an estimated driving range of 280 miles, while producing 379 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque. The top-tier GT-Line trim gets a boost in torque up to 517 pound-feet, while experiencing a slight drop in estimated driving range to 270 miles. GT-Line models can also tow up to 5,000 pounds. Kia estimates that charging the EV9 from 10 percent to 80 percent at a fast-charging station takes less than 25 minutes.
When you drive your EV9, don't be surprised when the jaws of passersby drop. The EV9 boasts a futuristic exterior design, with stunning lighting elements and beautiful wheel design options. Inside the cabin, the EV9 is spacious and cozy. SynTex seat trim is standard, adding elegance and plenty of comfort for every passenger. Standard heated and ventilated front seats ensure a cozy driving experience throughout the year, no matter what the weather is like outside. A standard smart power liftgate provides easy access to the back of the EV9. When you need to transport your belongings, you can find 20 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the rear seats. Folding down both rear rows of seats yields a maximum cargo volume of 82 cubic feet.
The EV9 infotainment system is anchored by two 12.3-inch touchscreen displays. One display is the digital instrument cluster, which shows important vehicle and driving information with crisp, clear graphics. The other display is the infotainment touchscreen, which makes it easy to control vehicle settings, audio, navigation, hands-free calls and messaging, and more. If you love listening to music while you drive, then the available 14-speaker Meridian premium audio system is an ideal choice for you. An available 12-inch head-up display shows important info like vehicle speed, turn-by-turn navigation, and incoming calls on the windshield, so you can keep your eyes on the road.
Every Kia vehicle is designed with your safety in mind, and the EV9 is no exception. The EV9 comes standard with a suite of driver assistance features, so you can always drive with confidence. Standard forward collision warning alerts you to potential collisions before they happen, so you can take preventative action. Standard automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection can prevent collisions or minimize damage in the event of a collision. Standard blind spot monitoring alerts you if there is another vehicle in your blind spot when you begin to change lanes. Standard lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist alert you if the vehicle drifts out of your lane and provides corrective steering if needed. Standard adaptive cruise control with hands-free driving mode lets you maintain a set distance behind a vehicle ahead of you and take your hands off the wheel for a quick break.
