I'm in NZ, and so we are in Southern Hemisphere summer. At the moment, I am getting between 19-22 KwH/100km on normal mode driving, driver only climate about 75% of the time, unless my family is in the car.
Good review, gives a good impression. I also liked the audio quality review, would be good if this can be done in more detail and for all the reviews you will do. On your noise testing, I presume this is done with dBA? Would dBC give a better idea what you can expect as this includes also the low frequencies?
Thanks! I'm currently using dBA. dBC has greater focus on low frequencies that's not disturbing for the human ear. Therefore I think dBA is more suitable for cabin noise testing. But I can try and see the difference. 🙂
They SO need to fix the stupid beeping. In my current car it beeps once and that's it. And if this thing is going to be beeping all the time it's worse than not having it. Why? Whenever I pass a side road here, there's a 30Km/h speed limit sign at the start, and my current Mercedes always picks it up, even though the road I'm on is 90Km/h, so in the end I'm just gonna get immune and ignore the beeping.
It does but there are interesting issues with locking and unlocking the doors while you’re in it. Key fob won’t work. Only the lock/unlock buttons on the doors up front work. I spent an hour in a Wind trim level a few days ago. Couldn’t test drive but the dealer let me explore for over an hour. There is a utility mode, and you can run the ac or heating in the rear zone while up front is off. And there are four vents in the ceiling in the back. I’m 98% of the way there to convincing my self to replacing my current Honda CRV “camper” with the EV9.
@@ItsOnlyElectric I do think the 99,8 is net from Kia, I saw a charging test and it’s was between 12-80% and they got 73,8kwh (in 24 min 🤯🤩) and that translates to about 108,5 kWh before losses (0-100%) But please do I proper rangetest 100-0% and charge it full again.
@macki5542 I charged it with 74,5kwh 10-80%. With 10% energy loss (heat loss, efficiency loss in harness and electronics etc) it gives a net capacity around ~95kWh. I will ask Kia officially.
@@ItsOnlyElectric you will get more energy in the last 20% of the battery than in the first 20%, but it would be nice to see a 0-100% charging test. I don’t think Kia will tell you.
Found this deep down in a technical documentation from Kia: "This means that the EV9 can be charged from 10% to 80% in only 24 minutes, which equals 70 kWh of energy delivered to the battery. " If that text is accurate it means that 99.8kWh is the net capacity.

This is likely the cheapest EV tower for at least 2000 kgs, unless I'm mistaken? At least for new cars. If an older car is ok the e-tron is fine, but is slightly lower rating actually. BMW iX is also cheaper used than a new EV9 here in Sweden, but the differnce is not huge, and it has the same 2500kg rating.
Noise comparison starts at ruclips.net/video/NBcAWB45Uj0/видео.html Very good results and I agree, the car is indeed more silent than Nio and most other cars. This is a great car to drive!
Great stuff, it would be even more helpful if you could provide some insight about the ride comfort/noise level from the 3rd row, because I know some 3-row SUVs feel quite different when you're sitting in the prisoner spot. Ioniq 5 is also noisier in the rear seats due to the motor. Probably a difficult task if you don't have any helper but a noise readout should be possible? Many thanks.
Thanks! 🙏 That's a good point. I could have placed the mic on the last row. My kids enjoyed their ride in the third row really much and preferred sitting there over the second row. But sitting there is more bumpy since you are sitting on top of the rear axle.
Yes, since a while back in Europe. Haven't seen any test specific test on the ev9. And if I don't get it wrong Kia is adapting the NACS standard in US. But keep in mind that tesla superchargers are using 400v and you will not get full speed with 800V cars like the Kia.
Can you get these insured? In America Kia and Hyundai are so easily stolen lots of insurance companies refuse to cover them or will only do so for ridiculous premiums.
And hideously practical for some purposes. Like towing big caravans with an EV. Lugging a lot of camping gear around combined with a large roof box, and maybe some bikes on the roof.
@olavstylen6959 362Nm and FWD? It will for sure take you from A to B and work for a MPV. But a SUV will kind of loose it's S for sportiness, but I guess most of the buyers a RWD EV9 still live in dense areas and care more about the looks than the driving dynamics. 🙂
9:52 I now see that I made a typo in the text box for the range test. The correct range in miles is 255mi not 296mi. Sorry about that!😊
I like when someone spends time to test and talks with numbers. This gentleman deserves more followers.

@KevinKanji single button would be great. KIA should create an option to bind it to the star custom key on the steering wheel..
"left wheel button" which one exactly?
@@Dude5375the up/down scroll button on the left side of the steering wheel, that ordinarily switches between driver display info.
So far the best and accurate reviews about Kia ev9 IMHO
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
Great review. Probably the best winter range test I have seen. I think it will get better winter range then a model y long range which is crazy
Thank you! 🙏 Not sure but I think the MYLR will beat 410km. But still a great performance by the EV9! 👏👏

The silence inside the cars is beautiful ❤❤❤
It's silent
I am on my 3rd kia ceed sw first brand new 08 then 16 and now 22 never had any problems with them or the company very good cars.
Good to hear
for 0-100 test, best to keep foot on the brake and push accelerator down and let go of the brake.
Tested that, didn't make any difference in this case.
This is a great vehicle, my wife just purchased one last week. This review was quite helpful when deciding.
Nice choice your wife did. Glad I could help. 👍🙂
Good review. We’ll need to wait for the one motor with the big battery. It should improve range and lower price.
It will for sure. May be a bit under motorized due to its heavy weight. Haven't tried it though
@@ItsOnlyElectric They need a more powerful motor for the RWD.
Can't wait for an ODB hack to disable all beeps
wow, the charging curve is quite good. Impressive
Yes, flat and nice! God Jul! 🎄
Tack! God Jul@@ItsOnlyElectric ! Frohe Weihnachten 🎄🙌

I am about to order it, probably 😂I thought I would pick that blue one, but this grey looks gorgeous!
@peetafunkadelic pebble grey or black looks really awesome
@@ItsOnlyElectric I will probably go with the grey 🤔
@peetafunkadelic blue is also nice but I think grey will last longer, won't get boring.
Please can you tell the app used for acceleration test? Thank you
It's hardware, app only for storing the numbers. I'm using a Racebox mini.

Yes, exactly my feeling too.

Yes, it's called utility mode in the ev9. 👍

Nice video! Could you also test the RWD 99.8KWH version?
Would love to but currently not available in Sweden.
Greetings from Ireland... why do the EU versions I have seen do not have the led matrix like the ones in the States?? Cheers
Not sure if it's a regulatory thing with the pixel design, but doesn't seem to be speced with it in EU.

@ItsOnlyElectric it's a shame as it gives a very distinctive look to the car.

Hmm..maybe it's time for a Hongqi!
@@ItsOnlyElectric Hope to see it! I have couple friends traveled to Norway and they saw some Hongqi on the streets!

Hi, where did you get the net/gross numbers from?
Gross from Kia and net is an estimate given the size of the battery and the charging session 10-80%.
@@ItsOnlyElectric I do think the 99,8 is net from Kia, I saw a charging test and it’s was between 12-80% and they got 73,8kwh (in 24 min 🤯🤩) and that translates to about 108,5 kWh before losses (0-100%) But please do I proper rangetest 100-0% and charge it full again.

Why will no one review anything less than the fecking gt line?
Seems to be the version that Kia wants everyone to review and the version that first got introduced on most markets.
dam that is some expensive car
Yes, but not compared to the alternatives.
3 tons and 200 hp, get back to physics class mate, this is shame for Kia and cosmumers!
Haven't tested it but agree. Will not be sufficient.. 😔
Torque is more important than HP, and it's fully available at all times
@jamespaul2587 350Nm, so it's ok but in the same ballpark as the VW ID3, so probably a bit weak on highways.
Mercedes EQV is bigger and gets along with 204 hp. Works like a charm! 😊
@olavstylen6959 362Nm and FWD? It will for sure take you from A to B and work for a MPV. But a SUV will kind of loose it's S for sportiness, but I guess most of the buyers a RWD EV9 still live in dense areas and care more about the looks than the driving dynamics. 🙂
Kia....Good luck with quality/longevity. I wouldn't trust em.
