[@sooncheolyoon759]

V2L is a must. Especially for camping trips.

[@XiomaraGerardo]

Agreed!

Awesome video ! Do you mind letting us know the total cost of electricity you paid for this trip ?

저도 ev9타고있는데 리뷰 잘보고갑니다!

[@XiomaraGerardo]

EV9를 운전하는 모습을 보니 반갑습니다! 리뷰를 읽어주셔서 감사합니다! 나는 한국어를 배우고 있어요!

[@mong807]

@XiomaraGerardo 와우 한국어 매우잘하시네요👍👍

Did you document the trip miles/kwh? Very great review!

[@XiomaraGerardo]

Thank you! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the review. While we didn’t record the kWh info, we can confirm that the documented mileage for our trip was 1,241 miles. Hope this helps!

Very nice -- thank very much! Was there some camping mode available like in Tesla Y e.g. ventilation, Aircon and/or heating during your good night sleep?

[@XiomaraGerardo]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, the Kia EV9 has a utility mode that works similarly to Tesla's Camp Mode. It lets you power things like the infotainment system, climate control, and interior lights using the car's battery while you're parked or camping, so it's great for a comfortable night’s sleep in the car.

Can you post a link for the mattress you slept on in the EV9?

[@XiomaraGerardo]

Yes, here it is! amzn.to/4e5wyBW

@XiomaraGerardo thank you much, friend. ^_^

Only issue holding me back on EV are price of battery when it gets depleted and how many years before you replace the batteries?

[@XiomaraGerardo]

That’s a valid concern! On average, we found that EV batteries, including those in Kia models, are designed to last around 10 to 20 years before needing replacement.

How do you wash a matte Car finish? I know you can't wash it at a traditional car wash and ruin the paint, right? what options are you missing on the Land, that only the GT-Line has, besides the Digital LED lights that are only on the Gloss Land and GT-Line trims?

[@XiomaraGerardo]

Great questions! You’re right-a matte finish requires special care to avoid damaging the paint. You should avoid automatic car washes and instead wash it gently by hand. Kia actually has a helpful video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYmad3Z3gbeooZY As for, some features that the GT-Line has that the Land trim doesn’t: a Head-Up Display, GT-Line’s SynTex Seat Trim, stainless steel-trimmed pedals, 21-inch alloy wheels, GT-Line body styling, and more gloss black accents on areas like the roof rails, among others.
