The 2024 Kia EV9 is one of the first electric midsize SUVs with a legitimate third row. And that’s a very big deal. But is it affordable?
In the world of electric vehicles, the third row remains elusive. There are plenty of electric compact and midsize SUVs, several trucks, and a bevy of sedans, but once you start hunting for one with a third row of seats, the numbers start to dwindle. And forget about finding one that’s actually affordable. The Rivian R1S and Tesla Model X have third rows but typically sell for over $75,000. That’s not affordable. The Model Y has an optional third row, but it’s basically microscopic.
The EV9 has about 300 miles of range, or about 440 kilometers, thanks to a 99 kilowatt-hour battery. The model I drove was the top-of-the-line GT version, with 379 horsepower and 515 pound-feet of torque. Of course, it’s quick. It has that instant electric acceleration you’d expect.
