Additional spec for this trim level includes GT-line styling, 21” alloy wheels, Dual Sunroofs, Intelligent Adaptive Front Headlights and Remote Smart Parking Assist 2.

“The EV9 sets new standards for the segment while completely redefining it,” said Ronan Flood, Managing Director of Kia Ireland. “There has always been a demand from families in Ireland for six and seven seater vehicles, and if these families seek to change to electric, the EV9 is an attractive proposition for them.
"In recent years Kia has proved itself a prime mover in the road to electrification and the EV9 further proves our determination in this regard.”
We will bring you the full review when we drive it in the coming weeks.
