The all-new 2024 Kia EV9 will start arriving at dealerships in December and today the company is finally giving us final pricing and specifications for this three-row electric SUV.
More spacious than a Telluride and more expensive than an EV6, the EV9 comes in three main versions, starting with Light and Wind, available only with rear-wheel drive for a suggested retail price of $59,995 and $62,995 $, respectively (transportation and preparation costs not included). Next comes the Land version with all-wheel drive starting at $64,995.
All three qualify for the $5,000 federal rebate as well as the $7,000 provincial grant, for a total of $12,000 (taxes included).

That’s not all: by choosing an EV9 Land, customers can add the Premium package ($74,995) or the GT-Line package ($78,995). We are mainly talking about aesthetic additions. For example, the Land GT-Line model has 21-inch light alloy wheels, raised roof rails, dark side molding, glossy black side mirrors as well as exclusive front and rear bumpers.
“We are the first mainstream brand to introduce a fully electric three-row SUV,” said Elias El-Achhab, vice-president and chief operating officer of Kia Canada. Therefore, we wanted to be innovative and remarkable, but also accessible. Competitive pricing and a wide selection of options will allow Canadians to choose the vehicle that best suits their lifestyle. »
