The first mainstream three-row electric SUV that actually fits a family, 7 seats, 300+ miles of range, and ultra-fast 24-minute charging. It won World Car of the Year for a reason.
With over 42 inches of rear legroom, the EV9 tops the Cadillac Escalade, Range Rover P400, and Mercedes EQS. It also has more shoulder and legroom than the Tesla Model X.
Kia's three-row EV9 is one of our favorite family-friendly electric vehicles, impressing from the moment I opened the door with its low step-in and load-in height, making it ideal for parents installing car seats, kids getting in and out or for anyone loading groceries or cargo into the rear hatch.
I just hit the car show and the Kia EV9 really stood out for awesome leg room for both passengers and driver (if at the expense of some cargo room).
