"Let's start by laying out the differences between these two. While both cars use the E-GMP electric platform, they actually have differently sized batteries-the EV9 gets a 99.8-kilowatt-hour pack, while the newer Ioniq 9 gets a bigger 110.3-kilowatt-hour pack. Even though they're similar in size, that means more range for the Hyundai. As tested here, it's rated at 349 miles of range, while the Kia gets 306 miles of range."
"Both of these SUVs are actually very good-in fact, they're both office favorites here at InsideEVs. But they aren't exactly identical twins, and there are some key differences between the two. And for a while now, I've been wondering what would happen if the two of them went head to head. Thanks to our friends at , I need no longer wonder. Their latest video is a comparison test between Hyundai and Kia's large electric people movers. Let's take a look."
"Both SUVs are made by South Korea's Hyundai Motor Group and ride on the same electric platform. They have mostly similar dimensions, a lot of similar features, and excel in their classes with range and charging times."
Two three-row electric SUVs under $75,000 share the same E-GMP platform, dual motors, and class-leading charging. The Hyundai Ioniq 9 uses a 110.3-kWh battery and is rated at 349 miles, while the Kia EV9 uses a 99.8-kWh battery and is rated at 306 miles. The Hyundai is slightly longer at 199.2 inches compared with the Kia's 197.2 inches. Both vehicles offer over 300 miles of range, similar dimensions and features, and strong performance for buyers seeking large electric people movers.
