Kia launches the 2025 EV9 electric SUV in Korea with new standard features

After Kia opened EV9 orders in Korea last summer, the electric SUV secured over 13,000 reservations in just eight days.

Despite the hot start, domestic sales have slowed this year. Through the first seven months of 2024, Kia has only sold 1,386 EV9s in Korea, while nearly 18,000 models have been sold overseas.

Kia hopes the 2025 model can help revamp sales with new standard features. The 2025 Kia EV9, launched on Wednesday, includes extras like surround view monitoring, suede headlining, and a new two-tone steering wheel.

All 2025 EV9 trims include new safety features like blind spot monitoring, rear and side parking collision avoidance, and parking distance alerts.

Kia also added a head-up display option, which can be purchased separately for $440 (590,000 KRW). The Convenience Package, with Kia Digital Key 2, now costs $815 (1.09 million KRW), down from $1,100 (1.48 million KRW).
