Kia plans 14 pure-electric models by 2027

Kia EV9

SUV will come in 2023, with a 0-62mph time of 5.0sec and a driving range of 336 miles, but Kia says neither this nor the pick-up models are yet confirmed for a UK launch. The EV9 will be the first Kia model to come equipped with over-the-air update functionality and feature-on-demand services, whereby customers can activate optional upgrades via the infotainment system in addition to the equipment fitted as standard. This will open up a significant new revenue stream for Kia while boosting manufacturing efficiencies by allowing for more standardised equipment levels off the production line.

It will also pioneer Kia’s ‘AutoMode’ autonomous driving software, details of which remain under wraps. It is likely that this, like sibling brand Hyundai’s future autonomous models, will bring level three autonomy for hands-off driving on certain roads. South Korea will remain Kia’s “global hub for research, development, production and supply of EVs”, but it plans for other global facilities to take the lead for their respective regions.
