One of the best three-row electric SUVs is now selling for roughly half its original price on the used market. Entry-level models with less than 10,000 miles can be had for as little as $28,000.
Why This Matters for EV Owners
- This might be the best time to get one of the most well-rounded family EVs out there, and it’s all down to depreciation
- The Kia EV9 , a three-row electric SUV, is a personal favorite of mine and has received glowing reviews from several reputable outlets
- It was a finalist for our first Breakthrough Award, too
- However, like many other EVs, it struggles to maintain its value once the odometer starts rolling
The Bigger Picture
That’s terrible news for anyone who bought it new, but it’s fantastic for people like me who are looking for the next great used EV deal. Right now, lightly used EV9s are selling for half the price of a comparable 2026 model, with the cheapest one I found selling for a mind-bogglingly low $26,995. The cheapest used Kia EV9 is a seven-seater with a little over 16,000 miles. com To put things into perspective, the cheapest 2026 Kia EV9, the Light RWD, starts from $56,545, so there are significant savings here. The most affordable trim is only available with rear-wheel drive, but if you’re willing to spend a little extra, a used Wind AWD can be had for roughly $30,000.
EV Comparison: How Do These Models Stack Up?
Among these models, the Kia EV6 Long Range leads in efficiency at 16.5 kWh/100km, while the Kia EV6 Long Range offers the longest range at 528 km WLTP.
| Model | Battery | WLTP Range | Efficiency |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hyundai IONIQ 5 Long Range | 77 kWh | 507 km | 16.8 kWh/100km |
| Kia EV6 Long Range | 77 kWh | 528 km | 16.5 kWh/100km |
Data sourced from EVRoutes' vehicle database covering 60+ EV models. Ranges are WLTP-rated and real-world results may vary by 10-20% based on driving conditions.
What This Means for Your Wallet
Based on current European charging rates, DC fast charging costs between €0.30-0.65 per kWh depending on the network and country. This translates to roughly 40-60% savings compared to equivalent petrol costs. A typical fast-charging session takes 20-45 min (10-80% DC fast) — enough time for a coffee break on a long trip.
Real-World Range Considerations
EVRoutes' route calculations account for real-world conditions. In winter, expect 15-30% range reduction due to battery chemistry and cabin heating. Pro tip: Pre-conditioning the battery before DC fast charging can improve charging speeds by up to 30% in cold weather.
What to Watch Next
The cheapest all-wheel drive model I could find goes for $31,250 and has 23,000 miles on the clock. I also stumbled upon a 2024 EV9 GT-Line, which is the top-spec trim with all the bells and whistles, for $36,888. It has just 13,500 miles on the odometer and features the six-seat layout that comes with a pair of captain’s chairs for second-row passengers. A top-spec EV9 GT-Line can be had for less than $40,000.
