At Jim Butler Kia, we couldn’t be prouder to showcase the 2025 Kia EV9—a true standout in the world of family-oriented SUVS! It’s no wonder this remarkable vehicle has earned its place as an Edmunds Top Rated winner for another year! With its perfect blend of spaciousness, cutting-edge design, and affordability, the EV9 is redefining what a three-row electric SUV can be.
Why Choose the Kia EV9?
The EV9 checks every box. It offers the versatility and utility families need, paired with an upscale design inside and out—all without breaking the bank. While other three-row electric SUVs may exist, none deliver the same level of thoughtfulness and quality at this price point. Not to mention, it provides a smooth, confident driving experience that’s as enjoyable as it is comfortable.
For families ready to embrace electric power, the EV9 is simply unmatched. It’s stylish, practical, and built for those who demand both performance and comfort on the road.
An Interior That Delivers
Step inside the EV9, and you’ll see why it continues to shine. The spacious interior rivals that of vehicles costing far more, and the craftsmanship is second to none. Kia has nailed the perfect balance of modern tech and usability, with physical controls for everyday essentials and a software system that feels intuitive from the start.
A Unique Offering in the Electric SUV Market
In a sea of electric SUVs, the 2025 Kia EV9 stands out as one of the very few offering three-row seating from a trusted mainstream brand. Think of it as an electric reimagining of Kia’s award-winning Telluride, with all the family-friendly features you love—now powered by the future of driving.
Performance That Delivers Beyond Expectations
With an 8.5/10 performance rating, the Kia EV9 offers a driving experience that’s as exhilarating as it is reliable. While the entry-level Light trim provides smooth and steady power, the higher trims, like the GT-Line, truly steal the show. Our test model launched from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.7 seconds—a remarkable feat for a full-size SUV.
But it’s not just about speed. The EV9 boasts excellent braking performance, giving you confidence in emergency situations, and its handling feels secure and composed even on winding roads. Daily driving is a breeze, thanks to smooth acceleration and adjustable regenerative braking, including a convenient one-pedal driving mode that makes urban stops and starts effortless.
Unmatched Comfort for Every Passenger
The front seats are highly adjustable, with excellent heating, cooling, and even massage functions to keep you refreshed on long drives. For second-row passengers, the optional captain’s chairs rival the front seats in comfort and versatility, making naps or road trip relaxation an absolute delight.
Even the third-row seating confines are a pleasant surprise, offering more space and support than competitors. Combine this with an impressively smooth ride that absorbs bumps like a dream and a cabin that stays whisper-quiet even at highway speeds, and you’ve got a vehicle built to keep everyone happy.
Spacious, Thoughtful Interior Design
The Kia EV9 is designed to fit your life with a thoughtfully crafted interior. The cabin is exceptionally roomy, offering comfortable seating for adults in all three rows. Easy access stands out, with low step-in heights and large door openings for the front and second rows. While third-row access isn’t quite as effortless as the Telluride, it still surpasses most SUVs in this class.
Outward visibility is excellent, making tight spots and tricky maneuvers easier. The available 360-degree camera system is an invaluable tool for navigating tight parking spaces.
Cutting-Edge Technology and Versatile Storage
We’re proud to highlight the advanced features and practical versatility of the 2025 Kia EV9. Designed to make every drive easier, safer, and more enjoyable, the EV9 seamlessly blends modern technology with family-friendly storage solutions.
Technology That Keeps You Ahead
The Kia EV9 is packed with advanced technology designed to elevate every drive. For music lovers, the premium Meridian audio system creates an immersive listening experience, making every journey feel like a private concert. Plus, the built-in navigation system ensures you’re always on the right path, providing dependable guidance even in areas with limited cell service. The EV9 is truly engineered to keep you connected, entertained, and confident on the road!
Stay effortlessly connected with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto—bringing your favorite apps, music, and navigation right to your fingertips, all without the hassle of cords. It's seamless, smart, and ready to keep you in the groove!
When it comes to driver assistance, the EV9 truly shines. Features like adaptive cruise control, which maintains a set speed and adjusts for traffic ahead, and an exceptional lane-keeping system make driving less stressful. Family-oriented extras, such as a driver attention monitor and a safety feature to prevent rear doors from opening into traffic, add peace of mind to your journeys.
Storage for Every Need
Practicality is a hallmark of the Kia EV9, and it earns another solid 8.5/10 for storage. With 20.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row, expanding to 43.5 cubic feet when the third row is folded, the EV9 offers ample room for everyday errands or weekend getaways. Need even more? Fold down all the rear seats to access a generous 81.7 cubic feet of storage space.
Inside, you’ll find plenty of cupholders and storage bins for small items, keeping the cabin organized and clutter-free.
For families with young kids, the EV9 is a standout. Every rear seat is equipped with LATCH anchors and rear top tethers, making child seat installation quick and secure.
Ready for Adventure
The Kia EV9 is built for more than just daily driving—it’s ready for the road less traveled. With a towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds, it outshines many other electric SUVs. Whether you’re towing a small camper, boat, or trailer, the EV9 is up for the challenge.
Range and Efficiency That Impress
When it comes to energy efficiency, the EV9 stands strong. Using just 35.7 kWh of electricity for every 100 miles, it outshines competitors like the Rivian R1S (47.4 kWh/100 miles). Though it uses a bit more power than smaller EVs like the Tesla Model Y Long Range (26.2 kWh/100 miles), it remains highly efficient for a spacious three-row SUV.
The EV9 truly excels in charging. Under ideal conditions, its battery can recharge from 10% to 80% in a mere 24 minutes at a fast-charging station. That translates to adding about 543 miles of range per charging hour, making it one of the fastest-charging SUVs available. With this quick-charge capability, you can confidently tackle long trips with minimal downtime.
Value That Goes Above and Beyond
We know value is about more than just the price tag—it’s about what you get for your investment. The Kia EV9 delivers exceptional value through its impressive build quality, premium materials, and top-tier amenities. Higher trims feel downright luxurious, while even the base Light trim offers great affordability without compromising core features.
Kia also backs the EV9 with one of the industry’s best warranties: a 10-year/100,000-mile limited warranty that includes the battery. On top of that, Kia offers free fast charging up to 1,000 kilowatt-hours on the Electrify America network, saving you even more while enhancing convenience.
