Kia has released specifications for its EV9 electric SUV, revealing impressive features that will benefit families on long road trips. The GT-line trim of the three-row EV will come with Level 3 self-driving capabilities in select countries, allowing drivers to take a break from driving on highways with Kia’s Highway Driving Pilot that uses LiDAR and other sensors. The EV9’s 99.8 kWh battery, which will power the RWD Long Range model, offers an estimated 336 miles of range based on WLTP testing. The AWD variant will have the same battery, while the RWD Standard Range base configuration will have a 76.1 kWh battery. The 800V charging system can provide approximately 149 miles of range in just 15 minutes, and the EV also supports vehicle-to-load technology for powering camping gear and laptops.
