The World Premiere event opened with a keynote speech by José Muñoz, the President and Global Chief Operating Officer of Hyundai Motor Company.
IONIQ 9 is an appealing new choice for customers seeking a three-row EV that can accommodate up to seven occupants. It provides impressive space and features that cater to individual needs while offering a sense of togetherness — it is truly 'Built to Belong'.
"IONIQ 9 embodies Hyundai Motor's unwavering commitment and confidence in electrification," said Jaehoon Chang, President and CEO of Hyundai Motor Company. "Based on Hyundai Motor Group's acclaimed Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), IONIQ 9 offers outstanding interior space, providing customers with unique value while solidifying our leadership in the global EV market."
Serene, spacious interior provides an unparalleled EV experience
IONIQ 9 offers superior roominess with ample second- and third-row space, providing an exceptional experience for occupants. Its interior design is characterized by elliptical elements and calming tones to create a lounge-like atmosphere.
IONIQ 9's flat floor accommodates seating arrangements for six or seven occupants. The Relaxation Seats in the first and second rows can fully recline and offer a leg rest for optimal comfort, allowing up to four people to rest during vehicle charging depending on the configuration. IONIQ 9 also boasts 1,899 mm of headroom and 2,050 mm of legroom, when second and third rows are combined.
IONIQ 9's Relaxation Seats[5] feature Hyundai Motor's first Dynamic Body Care system[6], including a Dynamic Touch Massage function.
IONIQ 9 also introduces second-row Swiveling Seats[7], allowing the second- and third-row occupants to face each other when the vehicle is stationary.
The SUV's slidable Universal Island 2.0 console provides an impressive level of storage and delivers a walk-through front-row seating arrangement, enhancing accessibility and convenience.
Universal Island 2.0 can be moved by up to 190 mm, allowing passengers in the second row to access it easily.
With the third-row seats folded flat, the trunk can accommodate up to 1,323 liters of luggage, while with all three rows in place IONIQ 9 offers up to 620 liters of luggage room.[8] Additionally, the front trunk offers a maximum volume of 88 liters for RWD models and 52 liters for AWD models.
'Aerosthetic' design conveys a sleek and sophisticated image
IONIQ 9's sleek 'Aerosthetic' exterior reflects Hyundai Motor's commitment to blending aerodynamic innovation and sophisticated, futuristic styling.
IONIQ 9's silhouette is defined by a smooth, curved roofline, creating a streamlined aerodynamic profile and a low drag coefficient of just 0.259 Cd[9] when fitted with digital side mirrors[10].
Energy usage efficiency is also enhanced by smoothing and balancing airflow under the body, and reduced wheel and tire resistance.
With the longest wheelbase of any Hyundai model, at 3,130 mm, IONIQ 9 impresses with its expansive cabin and grand proportions.
Reminiscent of a boat tail, the rear continues the theme of pixel-fused seamless integration while contributing to IONIQ 9's outstanding aerodynamic performance.
Notably, IONIQ 9 is the first Hyundai model to eliminate the roof antenna by dividing its functions between the windshield cover (for GPS and satellite radio), the instrument panel (for Connected Car Services) and the tailgate glass (for FM/AM and Digital Multimedia Broadcasting), contributing towards its advanced and minimalistic design.
Exterior lighting aligns with Hyundai's other EV models, featuring IONIQ signature Parametric Pixel lamps with small cube projection headlights and an intelligent front-lighting system (IFS)[11] to support improved vision and driving safety while preventing glare to oncoming vehicles.
IONIQ 9's confident stance is supported by a range of wheel options, including standard-fit 19-inch items, 20-inch and 21-inch wheel options, and a top-of-the-line 21-inch Calligraphy design, allowing buyers to customize the vehicle further.
The SUV is available in 16 exterior colors, including new hues such as Celadon Gray Matte, Celadon Gray Metallic, Ionosphere Green Pearl, Sunset Brown Pearl and Cosmic Blue Pearl[12].
Inside, interior trim colorway choices include Obsidian Black and six unique two-tone options (see specifications for details)[13].
Enhanced power electronics enable advanced EV capabilities
IONIQ 9 is underpinned by Hyundai Motor's innovative E-GMP architecture, which enhanced PE system, with an optimized gear ratio for hill climbing and the application of a two-stage inverter for improved efficiency.
A fully encapsulated PE system helps reduce motor sound, while improved acoustic laminated glass, triple sealing in all areas and the application of a reinforced plate in the A-pillar area all help eliminate road and wind noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) inside the cabin.
The platform boasts a high-capacity, high-voltage battery for extended electric range and a flat floor for added passenger comfort and increased cargo space.
IONIQ 9 is the first Hyundai model to feature aluminum fenders and quarter panels, contributing to a lightweight body that enhances the EV's efficiency.
The SUV also introduces a new closure system with a rolling-type pin-lift door hinge, ensuring a better fit and finish, and a newly developed electric hood latch for access to the front trunk, which not only improves the design but also enhances product quality.
Large-capacity battery delivers impressive range and performance
The advanced PE system's high-voltage, floor-mounted NCM lithium-ion battery offers 110.3 kWh of system energy. IONIQ 9 is expected to achieve an outstanding WLTP-estimated all-electric range of 620 km and WLTP-targeted energy consumption of 194 Wh/km for the Long-Range RWD model with 19-inch wheels[14] thanks to its low drag coefficient, advanced platform and battery technologies.
IONIQ 9 conveniently charges from 10 to 80 percent in just 24 minutes using a 350 kW charger, while the platform's vehicle-to-load (V2L) signature convenience feature and 400V/800V multi-charging capability lower the barriers to EV adoption.
The Long-Range RWD model is powered by a 160 kW rear motor, the Long-Range AWD alternative features an additional 70 kW front motor, while the Performance AWD models boast 160 kW motors at both the front and rear[15].
The Performance model[16] can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.2 seconds, while the Long-Range AWD variant[17] takes 6.7 seconds, and the Long-Range RWD version[18] takes 9.4 seconds.
Practical, future-oriented technologies deliver innovative experiences
Hyundai Motor has applied significant advancements to IONIQ 9 to address common EV customer concerns, including a refined EV Route Planner, improved battery consistency, an enhanced torque control display, a comprehensive energy report feature and other smart improvements.
IONIQ 9 displays its charge status via green dots on the steering wheel* to keep drivers informed of remaining energy. The model features Hyundai AI Assistant, an AI-enabled voice recognition system* similar to a home virtual assistant, which is activated by a button.
Hyundai Motor's new Features on Demand (FoD) service is a unique offering that allows IONIQ 9 customers to further personalize their vehicle with digital upgrades purchased from the online store.
Bluelink® Connected Car Services* deliver seamless connectivity through online voice recognition and a range of features for a more convenient and enjoyable driving experience.
Over-the-air (OTA) software update capability allows in-vehicle controllers to update wirelessly.
IONIQ 9 offers 100W high-output USB-C ports* for passengers in the first, second and third rows.
This innovative concept extends the capabilities of Hyundai Motor's Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability.
