Power Up: Why the Kia EV9 Is San Bernardino's Most Exciting Electric SUV This Summer
July 13 2026
If you are looking for a bold, capable, and fully electric SUV that fits the pace of life in the Inland Empire, your search ends here. The Kia EV9 has arrived at AllStar Kia San Bernardino, and this three-row electric SUV is turning heads across San Bernardino, Riverside, Fontana, and beyond. With its impressive range, roomy cabin, and cutting-edge technology, the EV9 is the most exciting electric vehicle to hit our lot this summer.
Built for the Inland Empire Lifestyle
San Bernardino summers are hot, and your SUV needs to keep up with everything from weekend mountain getaways to daily commutes along the 215 and the 10. When you research the 2026 Kia EV9, you will find an Environmental Protection Agency-estimated range of up to 304 miles on a single charge, which means you can drive from San Bernardino to Los Angeles and back without needing to stop and recharge. The EV9 also supports ultra-fast 800-volt charging, and when you need to top off, a compatible direct current fast charger can take the battery from 10 to 80 percent in about 24 minutes. For families navigating busy Southern California roads, that kind of flexibility is invaluable.
Three Rows of Space and Intelligent Technology
The EV9 was designed with real families in mind. It seats up to seven occupants across three rows, giving everyone in your crew the room they deserve. Inside, you will find dual 12.3-inch displays, a digital driver cluster paired with a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen, a wide-angle rearview camera, and available wireless smartphone charging for multiple devices.
The available Digital Key feature lets you lock, unlock, and start the vehicle using only your smartphone. Each surface and system in the EV9 reflects Kia's commitment to comfort and innovation, and if you want to explore our EV research hub, you will find detailed specs and comparisons to help you make the most informed decision for your family.
Sustainable Power Without Sacrifice
One of the biggest misconceptions about electric vehicles is that going green means giving something up. The Kia EV9 shatters that idea entirely. Available in rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations, the EV9 produces up to 379 horsepower in its dual-motor setup and sprints from zero to 60 mph in about five seconds. The Vehicle-to-Load bidirectional charging technology lets you use the EV9 as a mobile power source, perfect for camping trips to the San Bernardino Mountains or tailgate events at the stadium. If you have been curious about the benefits of driving electric in Southern California, the EV9 is the clearest example yet of how powerful and practical the switch can be.

Is the Kia EV9 eligible for federal tax credits?
The federal EV tax credit ended for vehicles acquired after September 30, 2025, so it is no longer available on a new EV9 purchase. Some California programs, such as income-qualified rebates and local utility incentives, may still help depending on your situation. Our finance team at AllStar Kia San Bernardino can point you toward current programs, and we recommend confirming details with a qualified tax professional.
