Making a boxy EV efficient is hard. Making a big, boxy EV efficient and "affordable" is a herculean task and that's why the EV9 stretches the definition of "efficient" and "affordable." What do I mean? Well, if you want the flashy models you've been seeing on the review circuit, they are about $78,000. If you want "300 miles of range"... Well, you won't realistically find it here if you're talking road trip range, but the model with 305 miles of EPA range is going to be quite a bit more expensive than a Telluride at $59,200 plus destination. Ouch. For that you could buy a Leaf AND a Telluride. Price tag aside the EV9 is a great EV, and it has a great deal going for it: it's the roomiest 3row EV in America excluding full sized vans. But... There's competition on the horizon in the form of Hyundai's own Ioniq 9, the ID Buzz and plenty of others....
