Posted on September 2, 2025
Hyundai’s boldest electric SUV yet—the 2026 IONIQ 9—has officially arrived at Kitchener Hyundai, marking a new era of all-electric family travel. This three-row SUV blends long-range capability, advanced tech, and high-end comfort in a way few vehicles can match. Whether you’re a longtime EV driver or considering your first electric vehicle, the IONIQ 9 makes a strong case for switching to sustainable driving without compromising space or luxury.
A New Standard for All-Electric Performance
Built on Hyundai’s dedicated EV architecture, the Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), the IONIQ 9 delivers smooth power and impressive efficiency. With a range of up to 539 km on a full charge, it’s more than equipped for extended travel across Ontario or daily commuting with confidence. This SUV isn’t just efficient—it’s powerful. Available with both rear-wheel and all-wheel drive, it offers up to 429 horsepower and responsive handling in all weather conditions.
Charging is equally convenient. Using a 350 kW DC fast charger, the IONIQ 9 can go from 10% to 80% battery in just 24 minutes—an ideal feature for drivers who value quick turnarounds and minimal downtime on the road.
Spacious, Smart, and Exceptionally Comfortable
Step inside the IONIQ 9 and you’re greeted with a modern cabin that puts both comfort and versatility first. The standard configuration seats seven, while an optional six-seat layout introduces captain’s chairs for second-row passengers. Every row is thoughtfully designed with generous legroom, and premium options include relaxation seating with power leg rests, available Nappa leatherette surfaces, and advanced ambient lighting.
Storage is just as flexible. The power folding second and third rows allow for easy cargo management, whether you’re hauling groceries, sports gear, or weekend travel essentials. It’s a spacious, family-focused layout, wrapped in sustainable materials that elevate the driving experience.
Tech-Forward and Fully Connected
The IONIQ 9 is as smart as it is stylish. At the heart of the dashboard is a dual-screen setup, featuring a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a matching 12.3-inch infotainment display. These screens work together to deliver a seamless, driver-centric experience. Hyundai’s latest software platform ensures crisp graphics, fast response times, and over-the-air updates to keep your vehicle current.
Drivers can also enjoy features like Remote Smart Parking Assist 2, a 360-degree camera system, and a premium Bose 14-speaker sound system for immersive audio. Through the Bluelink app, you can remotely control climate settings, monitor battery levels, or plan charging times from your phone.
Safety Comes Standard
Hyundai’s commitment to safety is evident in every aspect of the IONIQ 9. The SmartSense suite is included across all trims and features everything from Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist to Lane Keeping Assist, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Highway Driving Assist. Whether you’re navigating local streets or the 401, these systems offer peace of mind and help reduce the risk of collisions in real time.
Advanced features like Safe Exit Assist and a rear occupant alert system further enhance safety for families, giving drivers added confidence when traveling with children.
Bold Exterior, Sustainable at Its Core
The IONIQ 9’s design reflects Hyundai’s vision of the future. Its clean lines, bold proportions, and unique pixel-inspired lighting give it a presence that’s both sophisticated and futuristic. Aerodynamic detailing enhances efficiency, while large alloy wheels and available solar glass panels add style and sustainability.
Inside, Hyundai uses eco-conscious materials like recycled plastics and bio-based fabrics to reinforce its commitment to a greener future. It’s a vehicle designed not just for today, but for the next generation of drivers.
Designed for Families on the Move
The IONIQ 9 is built with families in mind. Its spacious three-row layout easily fits kids, gear, and even grandparents, while thoughtful features like rear sunshades, USB-C ports, and available heated second-row seats keep everyone comfortable. Quiet electric performance makes for a calmer ride, and safety features like Rear Occupant Alert and Safe Exit Assist give parents added peace of mind. Whether it’s school runs or weekend getaways, the IONIQ 9 is ready for it all.
