The model
Read full Kia EV9 reviewThe Kia EV9 electric seven-seater is a tempting – and very practical – proposition. However, if you can live with five seats or are prepared to consider petrol and plug-in hybrid alternatives, it doesn’t stack up quite so well because of its high price. The cheapest EV9 RWD Air model comes with plenty of standard kit and has the longest range, so it's our pick of the range.
The trim
See full equipmentYou’ll need to go for at least this trim level if you want four-wheel drive, but on top of everything that comes with entry-level Air, GT-Line adds 21in alloys, sportier styling, more comfortable front seats and adaptive headlights.
The engine
See full engine specsFour-wheel-drive versions are seriously quick with 0-62mph taking just 5.3 seconds. They cost more, though, and the official range between charges drops to 313 miles.
