Surprisingly Amazing

I have to say, it is not the most beautiful vehicle. However, it is quiet, fast, comfortable, and so far reliable. I love every feature, I love the space. I love that it has road presence and Is not a dime a dozen.

The Ioniq 9 Experience

I haven’t enjoyed driving like this since I gave up my 5-speed manual transmission Toyota more than 30 years ago when I met my wife who wouldn’t drive a stick. Now, I have the best of both worlds with an automatic transmission and one pedal driving that gives me so much control without having to constantly reach for the brake. Here in Pennsylvania there are narrow winding mountain roads driving downhill is an experience, especially when you check the console and see that you’re also charging your battery. Acceleration is outstanding especially in highways with short ramps and handling is solid and sure.

Make More

This is a surprisingly large EV considering how constrained earlier models were. The EV industry is showing some maturity, and this is a very fine example.

IONIQ Experience

The ownership experience started off a bit rocky, as the vehicle spent nearly two months in the shop due to software issues affecting the charging system. This followed a similar problem with my previous IONIQ 5, which Hyundai ultimately bought back because the issue couldn’t be resolved—hence my decision to give the brand another try with the IONIQ 9. I was compensated, but the time spent without a functioning vehicle made the situation challenging, especially while still making monthly payments. Fast‑forward about a year after the repair, and the car has been performing wonderfully. The improvement has been noticeable, and I’ve grown to genuinely appreciate the thoughtful convenience features and overall usability built into the vehicle. It’s been a much smoother and more enjoyable experience since then. Too be continued...

Hyundai’s are great vehicles

We purchased over 12 Hyundai vehicles in the past several years not including referring several others who purchased vehicles as well. We would not have done this if they weren’t great vehicles. We have had several Sonata’s, Santa Fe’s, Elantra’s, Palisades, Ioniq 6 and Ioniq 9.

Comfortable vehicle, charges fast, cruise control is lacking.

The car is very comfortable, lots of space, seems well built. It charges a _lot_ faster than my Tesla. The cruise control is unusable. Constant worry about the ICCU.

Nice ride

The ride is great. Roomy and quiet. Mileage is good as well. The software and screen need some major work. Not easy to use and confusing.

Joy of Driving

Best value for my money with the gas prices continuing to go up and down. Can carry a family of 4 plus pet with everyone in their on space with room for bags. The Bose system is great for the long ride.

Some missing obvious features

There are some obvious features that dont come standard or the base setting of the car. The most ridiculous is the missing automatic walk away lock. Most cars have this and its odd that a software driven car doesnt have that built in. The regenerative braking is set to level 3 and you cant set your preference instead. Every single time you come out of park it goes back to 3. The roll to complete stop is one of the selling points of an EV, just allow that to be set as the default like a Tesla. Then there are small things like the fact that your brights dont automatically adjust at night. If you want it to be automatic you need to take the time to figure out how to set that up. Really frustrating that it doesnt come as the default set up

Hyundai Ioniq 9

Ok vehicle to drive. Gets the job done. Still could use a little work with lane keep assist, and the one foot pedal drive is a little irksome with the final braking stage. Cooled seats don’t seem to be as effective, or at least it’s intermittent.

Ioniq 9 -- The secret is out!

The Ioniq 9 may be the best kept secret for a very capable, extremely comfortable/quiet, quality vehicle that does great in the city and is a dream for longer trips (no ride exhaustion)! Outstanding ride comfort, very comfortable heated/ventilated seats in front and 2nd row, outstanding noise isolation, excellent bump absorbing suspension, quality build (interior and exterior), excellent power and acceleration, competent steering, good EV driving range, fast recharge capability with either NACS or CCS chargers, available 3rd row seating, great cargo space, capable towing capability, excellent warranty, and a joy to drive. Hyundai designs and builds for the driver and riders: No gimmicks, no brand hype, no costly extras, just an overall outstanding product from build quality to performance to comfort to aesthetics to service. Best value for price of all vehicles I've researched (and I did a lot of research before selecting the Ioniq 9). Great work, Hyundai!
