We had the opportunity to test drive the EV9 for several hours on a local freeway and found it to be easy to drive and comfortable for long distances. The EV9 is able to suppress wind and road noise while driving along the highway. It glides effortlessly over bumps and ruts. The acceleration of the vehicle is astonishingly quick, and it has adjustable regenerative brakes that allow "one-pedal driving" simply by releasing the accelerator.

The EV9 is extremely reliable and can be fully recharged in just three hours at home or with any commercial charger. The driver can select from two operating modes: eco mode and sport mode.
