2024 Kia EV9 review: Australian first drive

The Kia EV9 is the largest electric seven-seat SUV from a Top 10 car brand to go on sale in Australia. Its futuristic looks and ground-up dedicated electric-car platform with the latest technology Kia has to offer make it a compelling proposition for large families looking for an electric car of the future. Prices in Australia are close to or in excess of $100,000 before on-road costs such as registration, stamp duty, and arbitrary dealer delivery fees are added. The Kia EV9 is not the first seven-seat electric SUV sold in Australia; the Tesla Model X was available with seven seats before deliveries ceased locally in 2020. The price range of $97,000 to $121,000 plus on-road costs makes the Kia EV9 the most expensive Kia sold in Australia to date.
