The Kia EV9 stood out among 63 contenders to claim the title of 'World's Best Car for 2024' at the Women's Worldwide Car of the Year (WWCOTY). Aside from its user-friendly interface, the EV9 also stands out for its innovative engineering, including advanced aerodynamics and features like level 3 autonomous driving, two-way charging, and rapid charging capabilities.

"An exceptionally noble, spacious, versatile, multi-purpose electric car. The electronic four-wheel drive is also capable, and the different driving modes make the EV9 an excellent vehicle in the Nordic winter and snowdrifts. I tested the car in a sub-25-degree frost and I was happy that the EV9 behaved in cold winter weather like a normal luxury car: it warmed up quickly, the mileage was not affected much by minus degrees. A great achievement from the Korean automaker."
