Bold Exterior Design Inspired by EV9 DNA
The Hyundai IONIQ 9 stands out with a boxy SUV silhouette, pixel-inspired LED DRLs, sharp body lines, and an upright rear profile. The styling takes cues from the EV9 but carries Hyundai’s own design language with a closed-off grille, flush door handles, large aero wheels, and a rugged yet futuristic presence.
Spacious and Smart Interior Cabin
Inside, the IONIQ 9 is all about comfort and space. It offers three rows of seating, with options for 6 or 7 passengers. The dashboard features a wide digital panel, blending the instrument cluster and infotainment screen. Ambient lighting, soft-touch eco-friendly materials, and a flat floor add to the luxury feel. Rear passengers benefit from reclining captain seats, USB-C ports, and panoramic sunroof views.
Battery, Range & Charging
The IONIQ 9 is expected to be powered by a 100 kWh battery pack, offering a range of up to 545 km (WLTP). It supports ultra-fast 800V charging, allowing 10–80% charge in under 25 minutes. AWD and RWD options will be available, with the AWD variant producing over 300 HP for performance enthusiasts.
