- The EV9 boasts dimensions that make it ideal for leisurely open-road cruising on paved surfaces and well-maintained dirt tracks. However, when you drive a large vehicle, the turning circle increases, posing challenges when navigating highly technical off-road routes. Additionally, the ground clearance is somewhat limited, which could impact its performance in certain off-road scenarios.
Despite these considerations, the EV9 shines in sand mode, where its drive mode excels, demonstrating commendable performance and handling. This feature enhances the vehicle's capability in sandy terrains, adding to its versatility for a variety of driving conditions.
Just don't take it too far!
The Kia EV9 comes with three different Terrain Modes. Depending on the road conditions, when the driver selects the appropriate mode, the system detects four laps of slip and then optimizes driving and braking power. Depending on the active mode, Terrain Mode Select regulates the torque and transmits the power per wheel selectively. The Traction Control System (TCS) reacts to spinning wheels with braking interventions.
In this video, the Sand Mode differentiates torque control and driving force distribution to avoid
the risk of the vehicle getting bogged down
While Starting, it uses 70% or less of the driving force at 10km/h or less and gently transmits the torque of the motors to the four wheels to prevent it from spinning
While driving Driving, the mode maximizes driving force and minimizes braking control at 10km/h or higher to prevent the car from stopping due to sand resistance.
There is no "lock" mode.

The ASMR of this video.
Traction looks great but it is really struggling with clearance.
i really wish they would have given some access to the adjustable ride height on the GT line model. any thoughts on if that could be a software upgrade?
Land wheels with a set of Wrangler Duratrac´s would be awesome on it,
Incredible
impressive :P
Love only hearing the sounds of traction! Any idea how manageable water crossing are? Does it have a wade depth rating?
Just don't water cross! :)
@@CarQuestion yeah, safer long term I'm sure. I still wonder though as even a 1st gen Nissan leaf has a surprising capability to wade through deep water (see video on CZcams from Japan testing). Also, videos of Tesla's pretty much turning into boats during floods in China (videos here too).

Hmm beautiful vehicle, 7 seater, MUCH better mileage but less ground clearance than a Solterra though, and that over $60k possibly $90k when you upscale to the larger battery replacement cost is scary! Ok the most expensive Ev9 is $79k but it seems Kia/ Hyundai would charge $90k for it.
That front grill clearance is average. Hope they do an off-road version with air suspension
It should be great off road, electric everything
SUV / car of the year
@@CarQuestion did you have the axels locked?
@@derekd8778 no axles to lock basically. It's got two motors -one for each end and the torque split between the left and the right is all electronically controlled.
Oh man, be very careful. If ionic's battery is 50k, god knows how much this one costs if you damage the bottom 😭😭😭😂
So far so good, but yeah can't imagine the price of that one! :)
@@Passportbros8 Tesla is trash compared to Kia’s especially the ev6,ev9… Tesla is a status vechile that’s it. The quality is garbage and the batteries suck 🤷🏻♂️
@@derekd8778 I am with you man. i test drove an EV9. i was blown away. i am gonna delete my previous comment. EV9 is miles ahead of tesla in quality, space, faster charging and more. I love the EV9
It's that much only if you let the dealer screw the insurance company and you don't mind to pay more after that. Otherwise, the eGMS platform has a modular battery, quite easy to fix. One module in Ioniq5 costs about 200-300 USD, because it has about 32 of them. And you can replace just one in case of damage, almost any service could do that. No need to scrap the car and recycle the entire pack like t**la and other crap glued battery packs.
@@derekd8778 I had Ioniq5 AWD for a year.
Switched to Tesla MY LR.
*Different technological level from Hyundai in favour for Tesla*
Ioniq5 was ok but with ModelY I am in true LOVE.
