SEOUL: Kia has unveiled a set of video clips to tease its highly anticipated EV9, the brand’s dedicated battery electric SUV.
The teaser video of the flagship SUV showcases a silhouette of the flagship SUV model, featuring its prominent front and sleek body surfaces.
It's as big as the three-row Telluride and uses the same platform as the Hyundai Ioniq 7, which has yet to arrive. It's reasonable to expect a rear motor version and a dual motor version for all-wheel drive.
While battery specs are not known yet, the EV9 is said to have a 480km range. It will be able to charge on a 350-kW fast charging station.
The striking lighting patterns created by the front and rear lamps complete the EV9’s bold identity.
The video clips also preview the EV9’s unique blend of sleek and sculptural design and confident and assertive geometry.
Like the EV6, the EV9 is built upon the company’s Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP).
Kia will reveal both the exterior and interior design in mid-March, and the product information will be fully disclosed during the EV9 world premiere in late March.
