What Makes the Hyundai IONIQ 9 Stand Out?

The Hyundai IONIQ 9 is a well-appointed, family-friendly SUV that’s far from basic. Starting with the base trim level, this EV offers luxuries such as standard heated front seats. Upgrade to higher trim levels, and you’ll get ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and heated second-row seats. This EV even offers available Active Noise Cancellation for a more serene journey.

With seating for up to seven and a luggage capacity of up to 86.9 cubic feet behind the first row, the versatile IONIQ 9 is designed to accommodate your needs. Front-row passengers will get 41.4 inches of legroom, second-row passengers will get 42.8 inches of legroom, and third-row passengers will get 32 inches of legroom.

Third-row manual folding seats come standard but are replaced by third-row power folding seats in the three highest trim levels. And while a second-row bench seat with forward/back slide and manual entry assist comes standard, it’s upgraded to second-row power captain’s chairs in the three highest trim levels.

Available convenience features include a sliding center console and a hands-free smart power liftgate with auto-open and an adjustable height setting, an ideal feature when you have a lot to carry.

Need to recharge your electronics? That’s when an available Vehicle-to-Load 120V charging outlet comes in handy. You’ll find an outlet inside and outside of the top three trim levels. And speaking of charging, wireless device quick charging is standard in all trim levels.

A large 12.3-inch touchscreen and wireless Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® is found in every IONIQ 9, keeping you connected the whole way. If you choose one of the top three trim levels, you’ll love the sound quality of a Bose® premium audio system.

With standard Bluelink+, you can stay connected to your car from wherever. This convenient feature allows you to use your phone to control charging, remotely lock and unlock your SUV, turn on climate control, and more!

The 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 9 offers distinctive exterior styling that’s both bold and elegant, undeniably modern, and certain to turn heads on every drive.
