The South Korean automotive brand KIA has revealed its latest all-electric car with a retro-futuristic design called the EV9 SUV. The car comes from KIA's EV6 and EV6 GT lines, which were also all-electric SUVs.
The car has a square-like exterior with a clean look and durable capabilities. The car also consists of vertically rectangular front lights with LED daytime running, and the large rear has two simple oversized lights. The interior comprises two 12.3" touch screens for the infotainment system, a five-inch display for the driver, and three rows of seats.
Furthermore, the middle-row seats have technicalities similar to a swiveling captain's chair, allowing people to flip around to face the rear seats. Additionally, the car will debut a standout feature: its Automode, which contains several autonomous-driving features. The car's battery is also expected to be larger than the EV6's 77.4kWh battery. The car will be launched at the end of the year.
