Kia EV9 first look at the flagship new model | American battery powered 7 seater

There's no doubt that Kia has come a long way but to think that they will be going after huge EV market share by 2035 while still making combustion engine cars is taking it to a whole other level.

Great review as usual Bob. What a beautiful machine and especially love the colour combo. On a more important note I wish you all the best on your journey to get better. Hopefully we see you back to full health very very soon. Sláinte

Great looking car! Great review Bob as always!

[gavinhassett]

Excellent use of the swivel seats, long overdue

[ericrochford]

It could have been so much more impressive if the Americans didn’t have an input in that design! I agree it will sell well in the US but I wouldn’t fancy parking that in a typical Irish car park 😂

On top form Bob. Great great video. Cheers.

Imagine seeing this parked in mainstreet Newbridge or in the supermarket car parks. Good review Bob. Wishing you all the best going forward and look forward to seeing you out and about, 👍

Great to see! Thanks, Bob. My wife urgently wants one. Buying lottery tickets ever since. 🙂 I honestly hope your luck is better than mine...

[mikeburke]

Well described, nicely explained. Thanks

Hi Bob. As usual you give great reviews and great content. I wish you a speedy recovery. My thoughts are with you

[columcreaven]

Beautiful. Car and great review, 7 seats are great and better built that the ID Buzz, 2500kg towing capacity is in caravan heaven, until you have to charge it with the load attached, may the force be with you and a speedy recovery.

So, no children then? 😂

Bob, get well soon. You can beat this, we are all behind you.❤

[marktyrrell]

Super review and insights Bob, fair play. It looks so cool. EV still very expensive, wonder will prices drop over the coming years?

[McLoom]

Nice one Bob ….. twill be pricey for sure …. But it’s a possible game changer …. So how are you Bob ….. hope you doing as good as you can 👍👏

[MosesKaldor]

Good job Bob. The concept of the car is great but the styling does not vibe with me. The electric car market is hotting up, just look at the BYD range such as the Han or the Tang. Xpang have their G9 and there is a major model 3 refresh on the way.

It’ll be a big hit here in the States only if Kia changes to NACS from CCS1. Wishing you all the best and a preemptive speedy recovery!

[automotivel]

Hope you are keeping well Bob. Great video - as usual - With wide opening doors (like my Qashqai) you need Wide parking bays. I find, that I always get some numpty park a fag paper between my car and theirs.
EV9 looks good, But it will be too expensive for most young families.

[joelyons]

Maybe for America but nope it's bloody awful I've seen nicer lego boxes which is exactly what that is. Pity as Kia have some fabulous looking cars but this is not one of them

[TheKhirocks]

Can tell its American design. I dread to think what price the paddy spec will be

[alunhoskins]

Looks is a very subjective thing and to my eyes it’s a pretty vulgar looking thing. Just my opinion and I’m not their target customer, so it doesn’t matter.
I can see it suiting America perfectly but it’s a ludicrous idea to bring it to Ireland. Even our motorways are, for the most part, only dual carriageways and this thing is crazy big.
