Great to drive, but ...

Big, roomy, but no place to put things and obnoxious infotainment system.

Cheap plastic material and poor stereo

Plastic dash materials are garbage. 70k car and the fake metal plastic interior is embarrassing. The speakers sound like trash.

Pretty good

It’s a very nice vehicle. Overall I’d say it’s a B to B+ vehicle in comparison to other electric vehicles I’ve driven. The Tesla operating system is a lot better. However, the range is much better which is a plus. Runs smooth, it’s quiet. Not a fan of the door handles, ac vents and the steering which is quite stiff. Also, the air is the bottom half of the seat doesn’t really work. Besides that I like the vehicle, but I’d never buy it new again with the extremely drop in price in just a month that I’ve had it.

Best Value

Great 3 row suv for the money. Very comfortable and fun to drive. Great Road trip car. A few flaws such as auto power folding rear seats that could be a danger to small children and the windshield rake angle causes you to bump your head on entry into the front seats if you are not careful.

The turning radius is not good and the technology good be better.

Making U turn is subpar compared to other vehicles and the technology needs a major upgrade, it's very boring doesn't make me want to to purchase again.

Do I love it YES, can it be better YES

I wanted an SUV with more capacity and range for roadtrips and this delivers. I definitely am loving the larger SUV of the 2026 Ioniq 9 Limited in Cosmic Blue with the two tone interior. I upgraded from the 2023 Ioniq 5 SEL for more cargo capacity due to young children and the want to go further for roadtrips stopping every 200-225 miles was a no. This vehicle is the family car and with gas prices at an all time high no regrets. I really enjoy the versatility, cargo space, sunroof, extra cameras, and extra nooks for storing all the child gear. The built in sunscreens for the window and the climate control are essential. The panoramic roof... yes please. The car picks up speed quickly. The visual dashboard I dislike immensely. In the Ioniq 5 I could clearly see when I was regenerative charging while driving and how many mpc I was getting in real time. Overall range is really good though efficiency is only 2.5 - 3.5. The gage doesn't even show anything over 6 as an option compared to the 8 on the Ioniq 5. I have not tried to drive it in the snow yet but looking forward to the winter. I live at a high altitude and it drives up and down the mountains with ease. I on average get around 3.2 roundtrip (down and back up the mountain). I would love to have storage for the cargo cover in the back under the seats and more than one location to use the cargo cover. I dislike that they changed the steering wheel button configuration, the electronic automation of moving chairs and the biggest issue is that it currently can not sense there is a child seat in the bucket chair and if you accidently hit the move for the back row button it tries to crush the child seat. A lock feature on a child seat would be great. I also would love to direct sound to the back only to allow the little one to hear soft music while we drive up front and talk. You can make it quieter in the back but not the opposite. I loved my Ioniq 5 immediately this one has taken a little more time but every time I find a new feature I love it a little more.

Love our new Ionic 9

My wife and I are owners of a 2015 Tesla Model S and were previously owners of a 2004 Toyota Sienna minivan. We both love our Tesla, and as the Toyota was getting older, we decided to replace it with an all-electric Hyundai Ioniq 9. We pretty much love the increased space, performance and practicality of the Ioniq 9, but we do miss some of the basic features the Tesla offers that the Ioniq does not. One of those features is the ease of getting in and driving away. With the Tesla, when we approach the car, the doors unlock automatically. Once inside, the car is ready to go as soon as the brake pedal is pressed and the gear is selected. When we put it in Park, exit the vehicle, and walk away, it shuts off and locks itself automatically. Of course, as you are aware, the Ioniq does not work this way. We have to turn the car off and then press the door handle to lock it. I really wish it worked more like the Tesla. We actually experienced a somewhat confusing situation with this. On one occasion, my wife got into the Ioniq and pressed the Start button without first putting her foot on the brake pedal. The car would not go into gear. Neither of us could figure out why, so we had to call our salesman. He told us to exit the vehicle, lock it, and then get back in, put our foot on the brake, and press the Start button. This solved the problem, and she was able to drive away—although with considerably less confidence than she would have had in the Tesla. These may seem like small things, but after years of driving the Tesla, we have become accustomed to how simple and seamless those features are. It would be great if Hyundai could offer a similar experience in the Ioniq 9.
