Expert Verdict

A properly practical electric family SUV. The Ioniq 9 is roomier, but the EV9 looks better doing it.

Pros & Cons

What We Love

  • Real three-row space
  • Ultra-fast 800-volt charging
  • Native NACS port
  • Available captain's chairs that swivel

Things to Consider

  • Heavy, and it shows in corners
  • GT-Line trim is expensive
  • Range drops sharply when towing
