Hyundai already wowed us with the track-ready IONIQ 5 N—but now it’s shifting gears with something equally thrilling, just in a completely different way. Enter the IONIQ 9, Hyundai’s new flagship electric SUV. Big, bold, and beautifully designed, it’s made for forward-thinking families who want all the space, tech, and comfort they need—without giving up on style.

With seating for up to seven and a minimalist, lounge-inspired interior, the IONIQ 9 is what happens when cutting-edge EV innovation meets serene, family-friendly luxury. From the outside, its clean, sculpted lines and sleek roofline give off major modern design energy, while pixelated lighting and vertical LED signatures keep it rooted in the futuristic IONIQ DNA.

Step inside, and it’s a total vibe shift. Think: Soho loft on wheels. Soft, natural colors and sustainable materials create a calming, spacious atmosphere, while Hyundai’s new Relaxation Seats (in both first and second rows) let up to four passengers kick back, recline, and stretch out—yes, even during charging stops. The panoramic sunroof adds to the airy feel, flooding the cabin with light and making every drive feel like an escape.

But this isn’t just a luxury lookbook on wheels—it’s smart too. The IONIQ 9 integrates Hyundai’s most advanced tech yet, including an ultra-wide digital display that seamlessly spans the dashboard, connecting driver info with infotainment in one fluid motion. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Hyundai’s latest connected car platform keep everyone entertained, while passengers in all three rows enjoy their own climate controls and charging ports.

Charging anxiety? Not here. The IONIQ 9 supports 800V ultra-fast charging, just like the IONIQ 5 and 6, getting you from 10% to 80% in under 20 minutes. It’s designed for long family road trips, weekend adventures, and the everyday grind—with an expected range that will more than cover your weekly routine and then some (final specs coming soon).

Smooth, silent, and seriously stylish, the IONIQ 9 is more than just a new EV—it’s a new way to think about family cars. For the parents who want to pull up to school drop-off looking sharp. For the road-trippers who crave comfort and connectivity. For the drivers who know that sustainability shouldn’t come at the expense of good design.

The IONIQ 9 isn’t just about getting there—it’s about enjoying every second along the way.
