EV Channels Review
The 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 Limited Performance AWD is presented as a strong contender in the three-row electric SUV segment. The reviewer highlights its spacious interior, comfortable seating with extensive power adjustments and ventilation, and a modern, user-friendly infotainment system featuring wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The vehicle's performance is praised, with the 422 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque delivering quick acceleration, though this comes at the cost of range compared to RWD variants. The reviewer notes the practical NACS charging port and the convenience of the power-folding third row and electronically operated second and third rows, maximizing cargo space to nearly 87 cubic feet. Downsides mentioned include a wide turning radius and the premium price point, with the tested Limited Performance trim reaching $73,300. Overall, the Ioniq 9 is positioned as a well-equipped and powerful option, but potential buyers are encouraged to weigh the cost against gas-powered alternatives and other EV competitors.
