About Ioniq 9

The Ioniq 9 is Hyundai's largest electric vehicle, a three-row SUV designed for families who want to go electric without giving up space. It is built on the E-GMP platform, with fast charging and a long-range battery, and its interior is designed to feel like a lounge, with flexible seating and a flat floor. It is built at Hyundai's Metaplant in Georgia, and it sits alongside the gasoline and hybrid Palisade as Hyundai's flagship family vehicle.

The Ioniq 9 debuted in late 2024 and went on sale in 2025, following the Kia EV9, which shares its platform and many of its components. Its smooth, aerodynamic styling contrasts with the EV9's boxier look, and it emphasizes comfort and space over ruggedness. Reviewers have praised its ride, interior space and charging speed, while noting its high price and size. Hyundai has added special editions such as the Calligraphy Black Ink.

The Ioniq 9 competes with the Kia EV9, Rivian R1S, Tesla Model X, Volvo EX90, Cadillac Escalade IQ and Vinfast VF 9, as well as with gas and hybrid three-row SUVs such as the Toyota Grand Highlander and Hyundai's own Palisade. It has been the subject of a recall involving its power-folding seats, and its American sales, like those of other EVs, have felt the loss of the federal tax credit that once softened its price.

Coverage includes reviews, comparisons with other three-row EVs, pricing and lease deals, recall notices and sales results. Look for stories about the Ioniq 9's place in Hyundai's electric lineup, especially as the company introduces new models such as the Ioniq 7 and adjusts its strategy in response to shifting EV demand, along with real-world reports on charging, towing and long family road trips, the use cases that ultimately decide whether a big electric SUV earns its keep.
