r/KiaEV9

Would like to trade in aging tesla model X but can’t without dog / pet mode. Dealer showed utility setting but it’s lacking in 4-5 ways like screen display.

I am driving tomorrow for about 250 to 300 miles and want to know if the 2024 Kia EV9 is compatible with any super chargers without an adapter? And if so, how do I find such a supercharger? Thanks for your help

My Apple watch works well with the digital key. I like it a lot. However, for some time, I can’t lock my car with it from the watch. I need to lock it from the car door every time. Though it is not the end of the world, I like doing it from the watch instead doing a few more steps.

I thought this might be related to an upgrade but I am not sure. Anyone experiencing this or have some solution?

I already did turn it off and on trick and also add and remove the key from Apple Watch wallet.

Iim not referring to “acceleration, sound levels, charge at home etc”. I’m looking at moving from an odyssey to an ev9. I already have an EV at home. I have two kids between 8-10.

Since CA will offer $3500 rebate only on $50k and under and combined with kia rebates I’ve seen around $10k off, is it possible we see a Light for high 30s?

Happy July 4th! More tech support!

Hey all - 2 days into my 2026 Land EV9 Nightfall - and I am loving it. I have had EV's prior, but after some really crappy experience's with our Nissan Ariya and public DC chargers (Level 2 worked fine), we stopped doing any charging outside the house.

With the EV9 with NACS, I am more excited to do more road trips. My father has a Rivian R1S, and when he goes to charge, all he does is plug in, and the car starts charging, as long as its one of the chargers on his map, and it charges his Rivian account. Really sweet stuff.

Ok so I have the Kia Charge Pass, and have my card connected, but when we went to an Electrigy America charger as a test charge, I had to pay as a guest. I will say that the CCS to NACS adapter worked flawlessly, no plug, unplug dance, but not the seamless experience my dad enjoys.

I have been trying to research this, but the infomation online is a mix of outdated video's and explainers that seem to gloss over all the finer points.

Do I need each providers app? Was it the adapter that messed it up? Am I hoping for a feature that doesn't exist?

My hope was that the kia app auto-negotiated with the chargers and just charged my Kia Charge account. What am I doing wrong? I am planning a cross-country road trip this coming week and I want to be ready.

Thank you!

EDIT - MY dad's Rivian is the 26, also with NACS, if that changes anything

Lease coming to end. Have 16k miles on it with a residual of $40k

Confused whether to buy out or get the new Tesla model Y L.

Definitely need a 6 seater.

Curious if anyone in the same boat.

So it has been really hot here in Boston. Yesterday I was out doing multiple quick errands and did not want to turn off my car. I was able to lock all of the doors and manually open mine. However I was unable to then use the fob to lock it. I live in a safe area so I threw caution to the wind and just left it open and running. I will not disclose my exact location :).
Is there are way to lock it while running?
Also if someone was to hop in could they drive without the fob? If so at most they would get only 1 joyride.

I got an email from Kia Finance with this offer and the person I spoke to at Kia Finance said it’s up to the dealership to give me this discount and to contact them. I contacted three Kia dealers near me and none of them knew wtf I was talking about and that I would have to talk to Kia Finance, which makes sense. I feel like I’m being gaslit and I’m going crazy. I want to decide what I’m doing with my car because I got a really good lease offer on a new Land, but if I actually got $5k off my ‘24 Land I would be at $40k, which is closer to what it’s actually worth, though still maybe a little high.

Has anyone actually been able to find out about and use this email deal?
