Kia EV9 wins coveted design award

The electric Kia EV9 has added another trophy to its cabinet after winning a coveted design award.


The Red Dot Design Awards is a renowned global competition that recognises top-drawer innovation.

And the battery-powered Kia EV9 has been handed the ‘Best of the Best’ prize at the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2024 celebration in the ‘Cars and Motorcycles’ category.


Karim Habib, Executive Vice President and Head of Kia Global Design, said: “With the EV9, we created an EV with a bold and authentic SUV character that pushes the boundaries, not only of design, but also of usability, connectivity and environmental responsibility. Receiving the Red Dot: ‘Best of the Best’ design award is immensely gratifying, not just for the Kia design team, but also for all our global colleagues, and represents our continuous push to bring innovative and inspiring solutions.”

The EV9 is built on what Kia calls an 'Opposites United’ design philosophy that centres on three main pillars; futuristic design, highly advanced technology, and sustainable values.

The electric SUV has already won a clutch of industry awards, including the overall ‘World Car of the Year’ gong at the World Car Awards 2024.


What’s so good about the Kia EV9?

Well, it’s a brilliantly-styled seven-seater that promises the best of all worlds when it comes to practicality and performance.

You can expect a range of up to 349 miles between charges, a 333-litre boot even with all seven seats in place, and power of up to 380hp. Range-topping models can accelerate from 0-62mph in just 5.3 seconds, which is mind-boggling for a vehicle of its considerable heft.


Standard-issue tech includes everything from a 12.3- touchscreen with sat nav to Kia’s ‘Highway Driving Assist 2’ package that combines adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, leading vehicle distance technology, and a lane-centering assistance.

You can lease the Kia EV9 with Select Car Leasing from £642 per month*.

*Prices include VAT. Credit is Subject to Status, Ts and Cs and Arrangement Fees apply. Excess mileage may apply. Stock levels and prices correct as of 29/04/24.
