Electrify Your Drive: The All-New Hyundai IONIQ 9
The 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 9 ushers in a new era of electric mobility, blending the space, versatility, and comfort of a premium SUV with the innovation and efficiency of a next-generation EV. Designed for families and drivers who want to go farther--literally and figuratively--the IONIQ 9 is the perfect combination of modern style, cutting-edge technology, and zero-emission performance.
With trims like Essential, Preferred, and Ultimate, there's an IONIQ 9 that's tailored to your lifestyle. Every model offers a serene cabin, premium appointments, and the capability to handle everything from daily commutes in Barrie to weekend road trips up north. It's not just an electric SUV--it's your gateway to a cleaner, smarter, and more connected way to travel.
Bold Design
Sculpted for both beauty and function, the 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 9 wears Hyundai's distinctive 'Aerosthetic' design language with pride. Its sleek profile, flush-fitting door handles, and pixel-inspired lighting details not only look striking but also work to maximize aerodynamic performance for greater efficiency.
At the front, the IONIQ 9's wide horizontal LED headlamps are paired with signature pixel daytime running lights for a futuristic look that stands out in any setting. Around back, pixel-themed LED taillights are connected by a slim reflector bar, giving the SUV a distinctive, high-tech finish.
The confident stance starts with standard 19-inch alloy wheels, with bold 20- or 21-inch designs available for those who want a stronger presence. Functional features enhance everyday usability, including:
- Power-folding side mirrors for tight parking spots and better aerodynamics.
- Smart Power Liftgate with hands-free operation and height adjustment.
- Seamlessly integrated roof access points for loading gear without disrupting the design.
Spacious Comfort
Inside, the IONIQ 9's flat-floor layout creates an open, airy environment for all passengers. The standard three-row configuration comfortably seats up to seven, while an available six-passenger setup with second-row captain's chairs elevates comfort even further.
A wide rear opening and low load floor make packing and unloading easy, while flexible storage solutions let you adapt to everything from family outings to big shopping trips. Interior finishes range from durable cloth to refined leather, with available customizable ambient lighting to suit any mood.
Comfort is built in with features like:
- Standard heated front seats, with optional ventilation for warm weather.
- Available heated second-row seats for added passenger comfort.
- Relaxation Seats with massage and power leg rests for first-row passengers.
- A sliding "Universal Island 2.0" centre console for adaptable storage.
Added touches--like optional rear side sunshades and rain-sensing wipers--enhance daily driving convenience, no matter the weather or season.
Electric Power
Powered by a robust 110.3 kWh battery, the IONIQ 9 delivers up to 620 km of estimated range (WLTP) on a full charge. Thanks to its advanced 800-volt architecture, ultra-fast charging is a reality--go from 10% to 80% in around 24 minutes with a 350 kW charger.
Performance options include:
- Essential RWD: 215 hp single-motor configuration for maximum range.
- Preferred AWD: Dual-motor all-wheel drive producing up to 422 hp for extra capability.
- AWD models feature Hyundai's intelligent HTRAC system, which adjusts power
distribution for optimal grip on changing road surfaces. Multi-terrain drive modes--Snow, Mud, and Sand--ensure the IONIQ 9 is ready for Canadian winters, cottage roads, and everything in between.
Advanced Technology
The IONIQ 9 surrounds you with smart, intuitive tech designed to make every drive easier and more enjoyable. The dual 12.3-inch displays--one for infotainment and one for the digital instrument cluster--provide crisp, customizable access to navigation, entertainment, and vehicle settings.
Standard wireless Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ keep you connected without cables, while available premium audio turns every trip into a concert on wheels. With seven USB-C ports providing up to 100W combined output, everyone on board can keep devices charged.
Advanced EV features include:
- Integrated NACS charging port for Tesla Supercharger compatibility.
- Intelligent EV route planning for optimal charging stops.
- Over-the-air (OTA) software updates for new features and enhancements.
- Voice-activated controls for hands-free convenience.
With Hyundai's Bluelink® app, you can remotely pre-condition the cabin, lock or unlock the vehicle, check the battery status, and more--all with a complimentary 3-year subscription on equipped models.
SmartSense™ Safety
