As the debate over the future of EVs continues, some companies are going big with their electric plans.

And in this case, I mean it literally, as Hyundai has debuted the 2026 Ioniq 9, a large, three-row, fully electric SUV that has few true rivals in terms of size among the electric landscape — which is dominated by smaller offerings.

This long-awaited offering’s closest competition is from Hyundai’s corporate relative Kia, which offers a similarly sized vehicle called the EV9. Outside of that, the only true competition are upscale offerings like the Rivian R1S, Volvo EX90 and Cadillac Vistiq.

Entering this level of the EV market means there is a commitment to electrification, and time will tell whether the U.S. public follows along and heads in this direction, but in the meantime Hyundai has unveiled a tremendous vehicle offering with a lot for potential buyers to love about it.

I recently spent some time with an Ioniq 9, which featured power, range and an attractive and family-friendly design. Read on for a full review of this bold new offering from Hyundai.
