2024 Kia EV9: Powertrain, Range Details Announced
• The all-electric SUV is essentially the gas-engine-free equivalent of the Telluride.Kia had previously revealed the exterior design and interior layout of the upcoming EV9 EV, but today was devoted to providing more details regarding the powertrain and performance specs of the SUV.
The EV9 is built on Hyundai's E-GMP platform, same as used to underpin the EV6 and other of the Korean group’s EVs. A notable aspect of that architecture is the 800-volt charging capacity, which allows for rapid charging on a high-capacity charger; Kia mentions a 15-minute timeframe for returning 240 km or so of range. The system allows for bi-directional charging, so the vehicle can be used to charge appliances as needed.
With that larger battery, output with RWD is 201 hp; the twin-motor AWD version with the larger battery ups the output to about 380 km. In this configuration, Kia promises a 0-100 km acceleration time of six seconds. An available Boost function can cut that down to 5.3 seconds.
