EV Channels Review
The reviewer takes a first look at the Kia EV9, a long-term loan from Fort Collins Kia, focusing on its interior space for dogs and its practicality as a large three-row electric SUV. The specific model tested is the 'Light Long Range' RWD variant with the larger 100 kWh battery, noted for its significant interior room and standard driver assistance features, though criticized for being "amazingly slow" with 200 horsepower. The reviewer highlights the utility mode and passenger talk feature, but expresses disappointment with the lack of rear heated seats and a confusing indicator light for the battery charging system. The video also features a significant update on the reviewer's revamped Volkswagen e-Golf, showcasing its new "diaper green" color and extensive suspension work, though a drive axle issue is noted. Other vehicles like the Coda EV, Twizy, and a modified Model 3 are briefly shown.
