That&#8217;s what Kia is asking for this big electric powerhouse. That&#8217;s a good deal of money. But put that price next to that of other cars with 500+ horsepower and you can understand why the amount suddenly feels &#8220;spot on. For a BMW M5 Touring &#8211; another fast family car &#8211; you spend 150 grand. Moreover, the EV9 GT not only offers insane performance, but it is also one of the most practical cars you can buy &#8211; perhaps THE most practical.       <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-content\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/kia-ev9-gt-my26-BS-3-Rear-digital-1920x1080-1-1140x641.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-201651\"><\/figure>\n<h3>GT in heart, kidneys and grille<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/kia-ev9-2024-review-de-perfecte-grote-elektrische-gezinsauto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EV9<\/a> GT hasn&#8217;t just been beefed up.

Also present: &#8220;Virtual Gear Shift&#8221; and &#8220;Active Sound Design.
