The IONIQ 9 showcases Hyundai’s commitment to providing a spacious and comfortable driving experience.

The range-topping IONIQ 9 AWD Performance Calligraphy Design trim, featuring added Matte paint, 21″ wheels, and 311 miles of driving range, starts at $78,090.
Charging the IONIQ 9 is convenient and fast, thanks to its native NACS port for accessing Tesla Superchargers. With a 350 kW DC fast charger, the IONIQ 9 can charge from 10% to 80% in just 24 minutes. As an added bonus, Hyundai is offering a free ChargePoint Home Flex Level 2 charger with the purchase or lease of a new 2026 IONIQ 9 or 2025 IONIQ 5.
