USCar Trader import service
Choose a specific vehicle. Where data is available, its detail page shows the import cost calculation. We assess any possible duty benefit with you before purchase.
Important: A 0% EU import-duty rate may be available for a vehicle covered by Regulation (EU) 2026/1455 that has US origin and is imported directly into the EU. CETA may apply to a vehicle with preferential Canadian origin. Whether the requirements are met is assessed for the individual case. Please contact us before purchase; we review the possible duty benefit and provide non-binding support through the process. Import VAT and other costs are assessed separately.
CarHub · Kia
The EV9 arrived for the 2024 model year as Kia's flagship electric SUV, built on the same 800-volt E-GMP platform as the EV6 but scaled up to a boxy, three-row body.
Model profile
To classify the Kia EV9, the model line, model year, body variant and equipment of the specific listing are considered together; differences between US and Canadian versions are documented from the vehicle records.
Powertrain and equipment
The EV9 uses a large battery of roughly 99.8 kWh gross. The entry Light Long Range is single-motor rear-wheel drive with about 215 hp; the dual-motor all-wheel-drive versions (Wind, Land, GT-Line) produce around 379 hp with a strong torque figure that makes the big SUV genuinely brisk.
US trims run Light, Light Long Range, Wind, Land and GT-Line. Higher trims add features such as the dual 12.3-inch curved displays, a head-up display, second-row captain's chairs with available swivel function, ventilated seats, a heat pump and the vehicle-to-load power capability.
Vehicle selection
As a newer model, used EV9 supply is smaller than for long-established SUVs but growing steadily, with early 2024 cars now appearing.
Import a used EV9 if you need a spacious, three-row electric SUV with fast charging and a premium-feeling cabin, and you want something less common on German roads than the established European electric SUVs.

Pre-purchase review
For the Kia EV9, the agreed inspection plan focuses in particular on battery condition, charging interface, warning messages, software status and accessible high-voltage and cooling-system components. USCar Trader can document these points through a separately commissioned on-site inspection; inaccessible areas or unauthorised road tests are explicitly recorded as unchecked.
Germany and Europe
US EV9s use North American CCS1 charging hardware, so plan an adapter or conversion for European CCS2 charging.
Typical work covers a rear fog lamp, ECE-compliant lighting, the odometer documented in kilometres, and confirmation of European charging compatibility.
USCar Trader services
As a buyer based in Germany, you do not have to inspect the vehicle yourself in the United States or Canada. Within the agreed scope, USCar Trader can coordinate document review, a separately commissioned on-site inspection and purchase processing.
Covered inspection points are agreed in advance. An on-site inspection records condition at the appointment and is not a guarantee.
Next step: Before commissioning, USCar Trader and the customer agree which document, history, inspection and transaction checks suit the vehicle and are included in the service. This records what was actually checked.
Import process
The Kia EV9 is a full-size, three-row electric SUV, and it is one of the most family-friendly EVs Kia has ever built.
Selection: we shortlist the trim, seating layout and drivetrain, and review battery health.
