Only the base rear-drive Light uses this pack. Kia's spec sheet gives it 76.1 kWh at 632 volts and a 230-mile range, with a 235 kW charging peak and 20 minutes on a 350 kW charger. Every other trim has the 99.8 kWh pack at 552 volts, which peaks at 210 kW and takes 24 minutes.

Manufacturer spec

High

NHTSA 26V-431 (July 2026) covers eight vehicles, one of them a 2024 EV9 and the rest 2022-2024 EV6s, whose high-voltage battery cells may have misaligned electrodes that can cause a fire while parked or driving. Owners are told to park outside and charge to no more than 80% until dealers replace the high-voltage battery assembly, free of charge.

NHTSA recall

Low

NHTSA 24V-757 (October 2024) covers certain 2024-2025 EV9 vehicles whose instrument panel screen may fail because of a software error. The software is updated by a dealer or over the air, free of charge. This is not a battery recall.

NHTSA recall

Low

Kia's 2026 spec sheet lists the same 76.1 kWh, 632-volt pack and the same 235 kW peak for the Light.
