The 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 9 brings electric luxury, spacious comfort, and cutting-edge innovation to Lakewood Ranch. This all-electric, three-row midsize SUV is built on Hyundai’s advanced E-GMP platform, sharing tech roots with the IONIQ 5 and 6 – but scaled up for families who crave more space and bolder style. Available in S, SE, SEL, Limited, Calligraphy, and Calligraphy Design trims, the IONIQ 9 blends sophistication with functionality, offering up to 300 miles of estimated range, available dual-motor AWD, and ultra-fast charging.
Compared to rivals like the Kia EV9 and Rivian R1S, the IONIQ 9 stands out with a smoother ride, thoughtful storage, and a lower starting price. If you're already a fan of Hyundai’s electric lineup, the IONIQ 9 is the natural next step for those wanting third-row versatility and upscale refinement.
Inside the 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 9, three roomy rows welcome up to seven passengers in style and comfort. Depending on your trim, choose from stain-resistant cloth, H-Tex™ bio-based leatherette, or quilted Nappa leather upholstery. A flat floor and flexible second-row captain’s chairs (standard on SEL and Limited) make accessing the third row effortless, while child safety is front and center with LATCH anchors and rear-seat reminder alerts.
Dual-zone automatic climate control comes standard, with tri-zone available on higher trims. Heated front seats are included across all models, with ventilated front and second-row options available. A panoramic fixed glass roof enhances the sense of space, while ambient lighting and a sliding center console bring modern luxury to every row.
The IONIQ 9’s exterior radiates confidence with its Parametric Pixel LED lighting, clamshell hood, and squared-off silhouette. Standard features include power-folding heated side mirrors and flush door handles for better aerodynamics. A hands-free smart liftgate with auto open is standard on SEL and Limited trims, perfect for loading up with groceries or gear.
Choose between 20- or 21-inch alloy wheels, depending on your trim. A sleek roofline and low drag coefficient (just 0.29 Cd) enhance efficiency without compromising style. Roof rails come standard on SEL and Limited models for added functionality.
