The electric vehicle revolution is fully charging ahead, and Kia is leading the pack in the competitive utility vehicle segment. Hot on the heels of the Kia EV6 winning last year's North American Utility Vehicle of the Year award, the all-new Kia EV9 has been crowned the 2024 winner by a prestigious jury of 50 automotive media experts.
This is the third time in five years that a Kia model has taken home this coveted honour, further cementing the brand's reputation for world-class engineering and design prowess. The EV9's selection demonstrates Kia's commitment to innovation and sustainability through its growing electric vehicle lineup.
The Kia EV9 is redefining what a utility vehicle can be. This three-row electric SUV offers a no-compromises package of spacious interior, impressive towing capacity of up to 5,000 lbs, and an exceptional range of up to 489 km on a single charge. It balances family-friendly practicality with cutting-edge automotive technology.
The North American Car of the Year jury thoroughly evaluated criteria like design, safety, performance, value, and user experience in their rigorous testing process. The EV9 rose above the competition thanks to its well-rounded excellence and advancement of automotive innovation.
"The EV9 represents a new paradigm in the three-row SUV segment," said Kia America CEO Sean Yoon. "This win proves EV9 is not only a top utility vehicle, but also an exemplary EV."
As Kia’s first mass-market three-row electric SUV available in Canada with a starting MSRP under $60,000, the EV9 is making sustainable driving more accessible than ever before. Kia is democratizing electric mobility without sacrificing the capability SUV buyers expect.
With back-to-back North American Utility Vehicle wins, Kia is staking its claim as a leading force in the electric age. The EV9 seamlessly blends impressive performance, family practicality, and environmental responsibility into one compelling package. This award cements Kia's dedication to an electric future.
