Hyundai Ioniq 9 review

Overview

The Hyundai Ioniq 9 is an electric SUV with 7 seats, a 110.3 kWh battery and a quoted EPA range of 335 miles. On paper it suits larger families and anyone who regularly carries more than five people. Prices start at around $58,955, with leases quoted from about $729 a month.

Its headline specification point is straightforward: three-row, seven-seat flagship with 385 miles of range. The sections below break the published figures down and set them against the other electric cars in our Your state database.

Design & practicality

Bodystyle is an SUV with 7 seats and 620 litres of boot space. Against every EV in the database that puts it above average for outright carrying capacity, and around mid-pack among other SUVs.

Three rows of seats make it one of the few electric options for households that genuinely need six or seven places.

Range & charging

The quoted EPA range is 335 miles from 110.3 kWh of usable-plus-buffer capacity — among the very best in the database for distance between charges. Real-world figures are typically 10–25% lower in cold weather and at sustained motorway speeds.

That is a large battery, normally paired with high-power rapid charging. As with any EV, the running-cost picture depends far more on whether you can charge at home overnight than on the charging speed itself.

Performance

The published 0–60mph time is 5.2 seconds, which puts it around mid-pack for acceleration here and makes it quick by the numbers. Electric drivetrains deliver that pull instantly from a standstill, so town-speed responses tend to feel stronger than the figure suggests.

Tech & features

We score cabin technology at 9/10 based on published equipment levels, which is around mid-pack across the database. The specification highlight is that three-row, seven-seat flagship with 385 miles of range.

Expect a large central screen, over-the-air updates and driver assistance as standard on most trims.

Price & value

New prices run from $58,955 to $76,490, with three-year-old used examples from around $60,000 and leases quoted from $729 a month. That sits at the upper-middle of the electric cars in this database, and the upper-middle of the SUVs specifically.

Our value score, which weighs the price against range, space and equipment, is 7/10. Whether it works out cheaper than your current car depends on your mileage, fuel price and charging setup — the cost calculator does that maths properly.
