Kia has posted the first teaser sketch of the EV9, an all-electric SUV that will debut on November 11 in concept form.<\/p>\n

Kia\u2019s Instagram post reveals the boxy silhouette of the EV9, which is expected to be larger than the Sorento and possibly the same size as the Telluride.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This teaser suggests the Kia EV9 will feature a tall and upright front end and a long roofline towering above three rows of seats, most likely. While the profile may send Telluride vibes, that doesn\u2019t mean the EV9 is an electrified version of the ICE SUV\u2014it will be its own thing seeing as it\u2019s based on the E-GMP dedicated EV platform<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/section>\n

We already know that Kia will launch a total of seven EVs based on this architecture by 2027 and that their names will range from EV1 to EV9<\/a>. Four of these vehicles will be crossover SUVs, including the already available EV6.<\/p>\n

That suggests the EV9 will become the flagship of Kia\u2019s electric vehicle lineup, and the name also hints at a\u00a0significantly larger\u00a0footprint than the EV6 compact crossover<\/a>. In previous teasers, the Korean automaker hinted at \u201ca strong and bold SUV<\/em>\u201d that could very well be the EV9; the description certainly befits it.<\/p>\n

There are no details available about this electric SUV, but Kia says in the Instagram post that the Concept EV9 will be unveiled at an event called \u201cKia Sustainability Movement,<\/em>\u201d during which the brand will offer details about its \u201ccommitment to a more sustainable future.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

That probably means that\u00a0Kia<\/a> will release more information about its electric vehicle strategy on this occasion. The event will be streamed live on the Kia Worldwide Official<\/em> YouTube channel on November 11 at 8 am GMT (3 am ET). We\u2019ll certainly learn more about the brand\u2019s flagship electric SUV and EV plans in three days\u2019 time.<\/p>\n
