    Electric SUV, a lot of space, six or seven seats, and then at a price that is way below the premium competition, this is the Kia EV9. And can this be just the right spot if you want something large and electric? We're going to find out here with Thomas now to go through in 4K, full screen, full length.

    This is a great car, great seats and great cabin noise, more quiet than Model X, Model Y, Volvo V90, Nio ET5. Drive is very good. One thing that this car does right, there is physical buttons for what you need to most, climate, volume, lights etc and they are not haptic, great job!
    I do agree that the climate controls are somewhat hidden by the steering wheel.
    Cruise control is good.
    If you flip the back view mirror, it will show the camera instead. I prefer the regular mirror, but might be nice once you get used to it.
    I like that the dash shows the cameras if you indicate. I imagine wind noise is even lower without side view mirrors.
    Average sound noise was 59db, a record for me on the same 90-110km/h stretch. Winter tyres!
    I wish the steering wheel settings can go higher, lower and more out than it does.
    The kids and wife loved it. I think this will be the next.

    10:48 The charging vs charging and connection switch makes so much sense.
    In cars with wireless apple carplay sometimes you connect your phone to charge but then it switches to cable connected carplay and then you get disconnected from carplay whenever you want to stop charging your phone. Cool solution from Kia!

    Really good review Thomas. I had a chance last week to test EV9 GT line. Few points to say. It's going even faster 0-100kmh..I would say 4.7sec
    Black metallic colour is nice and I am waiting to see red metallic in live
    Few things what is missing:
    - no massage seat for passenger side
    - no wireless connection android auto (software update will come soon)
    - still distance with 1 charging (km/miles) small
    - for sure there is a way to turn off these beeping sounds/warnings
    Overall: amazing price, quality really high level, no more glossy plastics (visible scratches)- few areas only, super smooth to drive, lane assistant works really good
    I am a user of Sorento model for the past 3y, amazing car, I am having great experience but only what is killing me is the glossy plastic inside. 😂

    If I were looking to buy a large electric SUV, I'd buy this in an instant, and wouldn't consider Audi, BMW or Mercedes at all. The BMW and Mercedes cars are hideous to look at, and the Audi is full of dead animals. The EV9 is far more interesting, and Kia's approach to sustainability is light years ahead of the others. It also has lots of lovely buttons, even if the speed chime is buried in a menu somewhere. And then there's the price. Why pay that much more just for a badge?
    Another home run from Kia, and another fine review from Thomas.

      @@autogefuehl If you press the star button under the screen or on the steering wheel you can create a shortcut to different departments within the system. Then you can create a shortcut to the ADAS overview. then you just need to hit the star, choose the speed limit function and then turn it off. This function is the same in all Kias. I have it in my e-Soul for example.

      Exactly this, we got a new SUV recently. Mrs said MPV’s look dorky and she didn’t want a van / commercial vehicle. She likes the airy feeling provided by high roofed vehicles so that just left SUV’s. SUV’s are also a much more developed sector than MPV’s and van based people carriers. Every car manufacturer sells multiple SUV’s for all kinds of use, so along with more choice, there is more volume, with more potential for deals.

Real range should be in my opinion atfer calculating 10 - 90 % state of charge max, because so few drive below 10 and on fat charger You should not charge to the max. In my opinion, when VW solves software problems and put regular wheel in ID Buzz LWB - big family master. I also still have hopes for Volvo with upcoming EM 90 that will be offered as huge family oriented option - not only copy of zeekr 09.

    The speed limiter acces can be configured under the multimedia button. Press and hold the STAR button and select it to driving assistance quick set. In this case you actually just press 2 things to deactivate it.
    In many competitors you can not switch the system off while you are driving. Either you remember to deactivate it or on the move you must stop for deactivating it.

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  6 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks! I did try that since I know that function. I pressed it and the menu showed nothing related to that function or that overview. Kia told me that they were not allowed to implement such a shortcut even by this way. I found it strange because Mercedes and BMW do offer way easier shortcuts. Kia said that by the time they homologated the vehicle, even stricter rules were in place than with the other new cars. Not sure if that's the reason. ll recheck next time again in the menu one more time nevertheless, but as I said, we tried it with several people on location and no one could make it work. It could be that the menu in your e-Soul still offers more/different choices than now in the EV9. If anyone has an EV9 and found it in the menu, happy to post it here.

      The regulation for ISLA starts from July 2022 so all cars that is homologated after that needs to have the system. After July 2024 all cars are forced to have ISLA regardless of when they are homolgated. My e-Soul is a facelift which does have ISLA because it’s homologated after July 22. However, I had not the possibility to create a shortcut before I downloaded the latest software. Maybe the cars at the press event didn’t have the latest software.

    Thanks for the review. I'm looking to change my Audi A6 Avant to an electric but:
    - Q8 e-tron is a bit old tech (slow loading, no 800V architecture,...) + cabin is the same as the A6. Drives great though but it lacks some user details like the KIA has USB-C everywhere and at the right place.
    - BMW iX: seems a bit to small (at least that is the impression you get from many reviewers)
    - Mercedes EQ isn't really my taste in design.
    - Tesla go to minimlastic to fast to my liking....
    - Was hoping the Q6 would launch but it seems posponed...that doesn't give much confidence to actually have one before Q3-2024....
    => this EV9 really looks like a great alternative. Never driven anything other then VW, Audi, BMW,... so first a test drive to see one for real.
    Other suggestions to consider?

    Excellent review. Im a owner of the new Kia Sportage. Family had other Kia. Its amazing how far this brand has come. This is a stunning vehicle. On the other hand, a car so advanced and modern has still a wired android/apple carplay its ridiculous and believe it or would put me off buying another Kia. My Sportage is cabled. Finally, bear in mind that versions are different from country to country. If you are in Ireland, for instance, you'll pay the same money as in Germany but get way less optionals, which is very poor. Just saying. Otherwise a beautiful idea of car.
