KIA UNLEASHES THE EV9 LUXURY ELECTRIC SUV AT 9TH PIMS

Building on the success of the Kia EV6, this launch underscores Kia's commitment to electrification and sets new standards for luxury electric vehicles.

The Kia EV9 in GT-Line trim represents a significant step toward electric mobility in the Philippines as Kia merges cutting-edge technology with premium features—redefining luxury for both modern families and first-class executives.

The Kia EV9 combines luxury, performance, and practicality, making it the ideal choice for those who seek a harmonious blend of style and functionality.

"Together with Kia Philippines, ACMobility is proud to launch the Kia EV9, offering a luxurious experience that aligns with our vision for the future of electrified mobility," stated Jaime Alfonso Zobel de Ayala, CEO of ACMobility. "We are committed to enriching the lives of our customers through innovative and forward-thinking solutions, ensuring that electric mobility is not only accessible but also reflects the premium quality and advanced technology that customers expect and deserve."

As the flagship model of Kia's electrified lineup, the EV9 makes a bold statement with its generous dimensions. Spanning 5,015 mm in length, 1,980 mm in width, and 1,780 mm in height, the EV9's futuristic styling, impressive performance, and comprehensive amenities have also earned the electric SUV global accolades such as the highly coveted 2024 Red Dot Best of the Best Award, a Gold trophy at the International Design Excellence Awards 2024, and the 2024 iF Design Gold Award.

Along with the 2024 Electric Vehicle of the Year, and 2024 World Car of the Year titles from the prestigious World Car Awards, these recognitions validate the success of the Kia EV9, earning it the title of the ultimate flagship SUV.
