First Glimpse - Kia Reveals Images of the Kia EV9, its First Three-row Electric SUV

Kia Corporation has revealed images of the exterior and interior design of the Kia EV9, its first three-row electric flagship SUV. The EV9 is built on Kia’s Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP).

Its long wheelbase and completely flat electric vehicle architecture offer lounge-style comfort in all three rows of seats. 

Occupants sitting in the first and second-row seats can simultaneously recline their seats to relax and rest when the EV9 is charging. 

The open, floating panoramic dashboard extends from the steering wheel to the vehicle's centre.

Two 12.3-inch touch screens integrate with one 5-inch segment display enhance the digital experience.

Offered in both six and seven-seat formats, the Kia EV9 will make its digital global premiere in late March. 

Karim Habib, Executive Vice President and Head of Kia Global Design Center, says: "The Kia EV9 breaks new ground, aiming to redefine standards for design, connectivity, usability and environmental responsibility. The Kia EV9 offers customers an exceptionally high-quality proposition and a fresh EV perspective in the family SUV sector. This new vehicle typology provides instinctive experiences and excellent comfort for not just the driver, but all occupants, through innovative use of space, technology and design."

Kia says the new model represents a step forward in the company's journey towards becoming a sustainable mobility solutions provider.
