Let’s get real: Portlanders love to do things differently. We drink coffee by the bucket, wear rain jackets in July, and believe “keep it weird” is a way of life, not just a bumper sticker. That’s why the 2026 Kia EV9 fits right in - it’s the all-electric, all-awesome, all-you SUV that proves driving green can be cool, roomy, and wildly fun.

Whether you’re dodging potholes on Burnside, going for a weekend at the coast, or just parallel parking between two art cars in the Alberta Arts District, the EV9 is here to electrify your routine (and maybe help you find a secret karaoke night).

The 2026 EV9 doesn’t blend in, and neither do you. With its ultra-modern design, chiseled lines, and “look at me” LED lighting, the EV9 is basically a block party on wheels. Open the power doors, pop the hood (yup, there’s a “frunk”), and load up everything from groceries to stand-up paddleboards - there’s space for the whole crew, two Great Danes, and a ukulele or three.

The EV9 comes in color combos as wild as your wardrobe (surf blue, forest green, and of course, Portland Gray), plus wheels so big you might mistake them for a local food truck’s.

Inside, the EV9 is all about stretching out. There’s seating for up to seven (bring the in-laws, or don’t), a living room’s worth of legroom, and a second row that spins 180° for ultimate tailgating or kid-wrangling at soccer practice. Need to move half your garden home from the nursery? Fold the seats flat and turn your EV9 into a mobile tiny house.

Range anxiety? Not in this town. The 2026 EV9 offers up to 300+ miles of all-electric driving, whether you’re zipping from Sellwood to St. Johns or road-tripping all the way to Cannon Beach and back. Fast-charging means you can juice up for 100 miles during your third-coffee stop, and never miss a beat.

Let’s be honest: Features are only cool if they make your weird, busy, always-on-the-go life easier. Here’s what the 2026 EV9 brings to the block:

 • Dual 12.3" Digital Panoramic Displays
Navigation, Spotify, podcasts about local haunted tunnels - all at your fingertips.

 • Augmented Reality Head-Up Display
Keep your eyes on the road and the next vegan donut shop.

 • Meridian Premium Audio
Whether it’s folk, punk, or whale sounds, every playlist sounds better with 14 speakers.

 • Heated & Ventilated Front and Second-Row Seats
Because sometimes you need “fireplace” up front and “mountain breeze” in the back.

 • Power Everything
Doors, seats, liftgate. Hands full of groceries and a toddler? No problem.

 • Wireless Charging & USB-C Everywhere
Every device stays juiced. There’s probably more outlets in this SUV than your apartment.

 • Full Suite of Drivewise Assist Tech
Autonomous lane following, adaptive cruise, collision avoidance, and “Hey, that cyclist came outta nowhere!”-level awareness.

 • Glass Roof
For stargazing during outdoor movie nights, or just admiring the clouds.

 • Vegan Leather & Recycled Materials
Drive clean, sit clean, feel clean.

 • Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) Power
Plug in your blender at the park. Yes, the EV9 will make smoothies at the tailgate.

No matter your flavor, you get Kia’s legendary 10-year/100,000-mile warranty. And yes, you can absolutely charge at home, work, or while parked at your favorite food cart pod.

It’s Saturday morning and the crew’s loaded for a Forest Park hike. Second-row seats spun around for pre-trail pep talks, gear stacked in the back, and Spotify running Portland indie classics. Roll up to your friend’s house and plug in for a driveway recharge - bonus points if they make you a latte.

Or maybe it’s a rainy day, and you’re hosting movie night in the EV9 (second and third rows reclined, snacks everywhere, panoramic glass roof for maximum coziness). The battery’s got enough juice for a double feature and to power the popcorn maker. Try that in a regular SUV.

And when the sun’s out? Beach run, picnic, and a side of stand-up paddleboarding. The EV9 hauls it all - plus, you can run your blender at the coast for the freshest piña colada on the sand.

 • Zero Emissions, All the Feels
Drive the city, the mountains, and everywhere in between with a guilt-free grin.

 • Wild Versatility
Seats up, down, sideways - whatever fits your plan. Move art projects, band gear, or half a community garden.

 • Always in Style
Modern, bold, and just the right amount of weird.

 • Ultra-Safe
Drivewise safety means you (and the kids, dogs, and chickens) get home safe, no matter what the city throws at you.

 • Unapologetically Local
Just like you, the EV9 embraces what makes Portland, Portland.

How far can the EV9 go on a single charge?
Up to 300+ miles - plenty for that coast trip, a week of school drop-offs, or five trips to New Seasons.

Can I charge it at home?
Heck yes! 240V charger in the garage, public fast-chargers around town, or sip some juice while you shop at Fred Meyer.

Will it fit all my stuff (and all my friends)?
Absolutely. Seats up to seven, plus cargo space galore - bring the art, the gear, the kids, and the neighbor’s dog.

Is it good in the rain (and the snow)?
With available all-wheel drive, advanced traction tech, and instant electric torque, the EV9 is basically built for Portland’s weird weather.

What’s the “Vehicle-to-Load” thing?
Plug in laptops, speakers, or even a blender - your EV9 is basically a rolling generator. Bring the party anywhere.
