Kia’s biggest electric SUV is being marked down by more than $15,000 at some dealers. Kia dealers offer big EV9 discounts into year-end While sales of several popular electric vehicles, like the Ford Mustang Mach-E and Chevy Equinox EV, are down this year after the $7,500 EV tax credit expired last September, the EV9 has actually been more popular. Through the first eight months of 2026, Kia sold nearly 10,500 EV9s in the US, up 12% from the same period last year, when the tax credit was still being offered. However, it’s still a fraction of many of its gas SUVs, like the over 98,000 Tellurides it sold during the same period. Like many, Kia has stepped in with its own discounts and incentives to offset the loss of the federal credit.
