I’m having a great experience so far. I have the 6 seater Land trim in black. It’s roomy, has great pick up, and whisper quiet inside. There are a few features that take a little getting used to (climate controls) with the placement and functionality, but you quickly adapt and I’ve found everything to be very easy to work with. We recently took the EV9 from San Diego to the mountains for a snow weekend and it was amazing. The perfect road trip car for a family of 4 with tons of room to spare. The adaptive cruise control is incredible and the interior quality makes for a very comfortable experience. My only issue is the frunk. I wish it was a little bigger, but it’s by no means a deal killer. We also have the Model Y and the EV9 is head over heels the family favorite. 6000 mile update - I’ve had the EV9 for 6 months now and we’re still loving it. There’s really no comparison with the Model Y. The Kia is more comfortable, has smoother ride, and is more spacious. One of the nicest cars I’ve ever owned. We did had an issue with the battery, however. An issue that seems to be fairly common with Kia EVs. After a normal day of driving, I woke up the next morning to find that the 12v was totally drained and needed to be jump started. I took it to the dealer who kept it for a few days and determined it needed a software update. I picked it up a few days later and haven’t had any issues since. A minor inconvenience. One of the things I love most about the EV9 is the interior quality. Coming from a Mercedes E350, I was nervous that the Kia would be a downgrade. I’ve been pleasantly surprised. The Land model gives you the option for the higher end brown interior which I highly recommend. I added a few accessories as well. All weather mats and roof racks. The roof racks were a little pricey - $700. There’s cheaper options, but I went with the OEMs. The roof racks give the car a really nice look. My favorite feature is still the adaptive cruise control system. Although the infotainment system takes some getting used to, it’s very intuitive and easy to pick up.

I *love* this car. It fits everyone. It drives beautifully, smoothly, and comfortably. The sound system needs a little bass-cranking, and then its wonderful. The kids don't fight about the back row for road-trips, because of the charging outlets and a high-quality of seat-comfort. It charges so fast, it's almost funny (I've actually had to get up from my moment of zen because I've hit 80% faster than expected). The acceleration is wicked, the road silence is almost eerie, and everything just works. I've driven sporty subarus and huge landcruisers around the world, and I've never been as happy to get in the car for a morning commute as in this one.

Almost Perfect SUV

I wanted to buy Tesla for years but every time I drive it I couldn't justify to buy it. I have rented Model-X and Model-3 and test drove model-y. When I learned about EV9 I liked it on paper and watched all youtube videos. But it was bit expensive for my budget. I decided to take a test drive and there was the moment, I liked it so much I didn't care about money. I was buying lite long range but once I also drove land so I bought wind to get extra power and awd. So far I have driven it for 1000 miles and my love for the car is increasing day by day. It charges faster than Tesla superchargers. It is very quite almost comparable to my mercedes SUV. I do have few complaints though, I paid 65k for it but it doesn't have seat memory. I would like it to lock itself if the key is not around. Inbuilt GPS is good overall but last 100feet directions are annoying. Although wireless android auto works flawlessly. The GPS doesn't show the arrival SoC in estimations. The HDA-II works fine for most highways. But lane keeping on non-highway is hit and miss.

Would be great but for one unfortunate flaw

This SUV is excellent as a package. Alas the day I brought it home I experienced a steering vibration beginning around 70mph. Googling it will reveal many have this problem, and despite dealers doing tire changes and balancing, they cannot resolve it. It’s terrible to have such a flaw in a $74,000 brand new car. Kia should do an immediate recall to fix the issue. But for this problem, I would find the EV9 pretty much perfect. And I say this coming from an Audi Q7. It’s roomy, solid in structure, generally rides well and has an amazing powertrain that is powerful and efficient. Please Kia fix this vibration issue.

I’ve had the vehicle now for 6-months. I have experienced unquestionable competence on the road. I have towed with it. Hauled it full of people, loaded it with pavers and stone. It’s been in rain, sleet and snow. Ive charged in level 2 and 3 chargers without issue. Using the digital key makes it even more interesting. I literally leave the keys at home and use my phone exclusively. So many features, super fun. You’ll have a good time.
