CarTell take

Driven by Simone

We have driven the Ioniq 9. Watch the full review for the verdict.

Why consider it

  • Longest range of any seven-seat EV currently on sale in Australia.
  • 600 km WLTP, 350 kW DC peak, and a 5,060 mm body with a 3,130 mm wheelbase that delivers adult-sized space across all three rows.

What to know

  • 338 L of boot space with all three rows up is modest for a 5-metre SUV.
  • 2,500 kg braked tow also trails three-row diesel SUVs at this price point.
