The EV9’s purpose-built EV platform utilizes ultra-high-strength steel to provide a robust yet lightweight structure. It comes equipped with an available 99.8 kWh battery, dual motor e-AWD, and a generous 122-in. wheelbase—comparable to that of luxury vehicles.1
Going all-electric isn't just for sedans, pickups, and small SUVs anymore. The three-row EV9 SUV, which is about the same size as the current gas-only Telluride, shares its platform with the upcoming Hyundai Ioniq 7. The EV9 comes in rear- or all-wheel drive, with the latter featuring a 379-hp dual-motor powertrain. Both the all-wheel-drive and rear-drive Long Range models have a 99.8-kWh battery the EPA estimates delivers 304 miles of range with the single-motor setup. The standard rear-wheel-drive EV9 has a 76.1-kWh battery that gets an EPA-estimated 230 miles of range. Its big size comes with a big towing capacity of 5000 pounds—the same max capacity as the gas-powered Telluride. The EV9's usable third row of seats should appeal to growing families. Not only is it among the few three-row EVs on the market with a sub-$60k starting price, but it's also an especially good-driving EV of this size and an easy choice for our 2024 10Best Trucks and SUVs and 2024 Editors' Choice lists.
