What makes the EV9 such a comfortable SUV

Comfort is essential, not just for your passengers but for you too. At Kia, we’re dedicated to turning every drive into a pleasure, which is why we strive to build the most comfortable vehicles possible.

A prime example of this commitment is the Kia EV9, our latest all-electric SUV. The EV9 stands out as one of our most comfortable models, featuring cutting-edge technology and a sophisticated design that redefine travel comfort.

Discover the newly refined features of the award-winning EV9 and experience why it’s considered one of our most comfortable SUVs.

Abundant Space in Every Dimension

One of the key attractions of spacious SUVs is the extra room they offer, and the EV9 excels in this regard. This electric SUV comfortably accommodates seven passengers across three rows of luxurious seating.

Featuring our new Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), the EV9 boasts a long wheelbase and flat floor design, creating a cabin with more space in every direction. This generous interior allows all occupants to relax with plenty of legroom and headroom.

Autocar reviewers Matt Saunders and Sam Phillips remarked, “This SUV is clearly designed to provide exceptional comfort for large families, meeting their needs with great effectiveness.”

Customizable Interior Comfort

The EV9 cabin is designed to offer premium comfort across all three rows of seating, with ergonomic enhancements for a superior experience.

In the first row, both the driver and front passenger can enjoy premium relaxation seats crafted from upcycled artificial leather. These seats feature a massage function and electric lumbar support, designed to improve posture, reduce back pain, and ensure a comfortable driving position. With intuitive controls, you can easily adjust and recline these lounge-style chairs to suit your personal comfort preferences.

In the second row of the 6-seater variant, flexible swivel seats allow you to create a dynamic and social space tailored to your needs. Additionally, to keep everyone connected, we’ve integrated multiple USB-C fast-charging ports throughout the cabin, from the first to the third row.

Tactile and Immersive Connectivity

At Kia, we believe that true comfort in a car comes from having all the connectivity and convenience features you need right at your fingertips.

In the Kia EV9, staying connected and informed is effortless thanks to its triple panorama display. This setup features two 12.3-inch screens alongside a 5.3-inch climate control screen. The dual 12.3-inch displays offer comprehensive car information, touchscreen navigation, and seamless integration with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, all visible to both the driver and passengers.

Our commitment to year-round comfort is evident in the EV9. Both the first and second rows of seats come with heating functionality, and the leather steering wheel is also heated, ensuring a cozy driving experience during colder months.

The EV9's advanced climate control system allows for precise adjustments to the cabin temperature, enhancing your comfort. With the Kia Connect app, you can even manage the climate remotely. Activate, set, and schedule the climate control from your smartphone before you even get in the car. This way, your EV9 will be at the perfect temperature while charging, helping to maximize your driving range.

Smart Storage Solutions

For a truly comfortable driving experience, intelligent storage solutions are essential. The EV9 caters to families with its ample luggage space, perfect for any adventure or road trip.

Behind the second row of seats, the EV9 features a spacious 828-litre boot. You can maximize this space further with the 50:50 split-folding third row seats and the 60:40 split-folding second row seats. Plus, there's a convenient front storage compartment under the bonnet.

Storage innovation continues throughout the cabin with front and rear door pockets, illuminated under-floor compartments, and a roomy glovebox, ensuring that you have ample space to keep everything organized.

A quiet car with a smooth, seamless ride

At Kia, we prioritize seamless performance and ultimate comfort in our vehicles. The new EV9, our most advanced electric car yet, embodies this philosophy with its smooth and serene ride, coupled with our longest range to date.

Powered by our innovative E-GMP platform, the 7-seater EV9 offers a remarkably stable and balanced driving experience. It features enhanced steering and braking performance, along with a fine turning radius and exceptional handling. This means that navigating tight corners and high-speed turns is effortlessly smooth.

Auto Express journalists Max Adams and John McIlroy have lauded the EV9 for its superior comfort and ride quality. They highlighted, “The star turn of the Kia EV9 is its ride quality, which has been expertly judged. The vehicle is unashamedly focused on comfort, making it a very relaxing way to travel and highly comfortable on a motorway cruise.”

Opt for the EV9 AWD powertrain to benefit from our new e-AWD system. This advanced system seamlessly transitions between rear-wheel and all-wheel-drive modes, ensuring optimal grip and stability on various surfaces.

The EV9 is equipped with tyres designed to minimize noise and vibration, creating a tranquil cabin environment for a relaxing driving experience. With the E-GMP platform and fourth-generation battery cells, the EV9 offers an impressive all-electric range of up to 349 miles on a single charge.
