IONIQ 9 Performance AWD

The Hyundai IONIQ 9 Performance AWD is a 7-seat SUV with all-wheel drive, on sale in the UK from £77,595. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 5.2 seconds, quicker than 70% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 301 miles (485 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 74% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 41st of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 2.8 mi/kWh (219 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 106 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 195 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 342 miles (550 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Its UK starting price works out at £257 per mile of real-world range, higher than the median for SUVs (£186 per mile).

Second-hand, a 2025 example is estimated at £44,200–£50,400, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2025 car should still manage about 295 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
