Hyundai IONIQ 9 - What A Great Electric 7 Seater!

Welcome back to the channel! We are here with the Hyundai IONIQ 9, the flagship 7-seater electric SUV that has recently arrived in Ireland. After our initial first look in the rain, we finally have some sunshine to properly explore this massive EV. Available in a single, high-spec trim with a rear-wheel-drive motor, the IONIQ 9 is Hyundai’s answer to the premium large SUV market. It combines the brand’s signature "pixel" design language with a "boat-tail" aerodynamic silhouette and a massive 110 kWh battery. Whether you’re moving a large family or just need the versatility of three rows, we’re going to see if this €80,000 powerhouse is the best in its class.
