KIA EV9 GT-LINE HIGHWAY RANGE TEST

EV Channels Review

This livestream range test of the Kia EV9 GT-Line highlights the vehicle's comfortable and quiet ride, particularly on the highway, with the reviewer praising its spacious interior and advanced driver assistance features. The GT-Line trim, equipped with the larger battery and 21-inch wheels, is noted for its premium features like massaging seats. However, the reviewer expresses a preference for testing vehicles with more break-in miles, as this unit had only 40 miles on the odometer. Charging behavior, including a "Korean Siesta" at higher states of charge and slower top-charging speeds, is observed but not seen as a major detractor. The reviewer anticipates the EV9 will be a capable road-tripping machine, despite the less-than-ideal testing conditions (wind, new vehicle).
