With a new rebate, you can score up to $12,500 off the Kia EV9 right now. However, not all models are eligible for the promotion. Here’s how you can snag some savings.
Kia offers up to $12,500 off select 2026 EV9 models
Just as the 2025 model year sold out, 2026 Kia EV9 models are now arriving at dealerships across the US. Kia was offering generous discounts, including a $10,000 customer cash rebate or 0% APR financing, to make way for the 2026 models.
After Kia launched a new rebate, you can potentially save even more on the new model year. Kia is offering a $7,500 rebate on certain 2026 EV9 Light Long Range models.
Even better, it can be stacked with a $4,000 Customer Cash bonus, offered on every EV9 trim. Kia is also offering a $1,000 conquest bonus if you drive an EV or plug-in hybrid (PHEV) from a rival brand, for up to $12,500 in savings. That’s pretty significant at about 20% off MSRP.
The $7,500 rebate only applies to select models, however. A company spokesperson confirmed with CarsDirect that only Model Code P4342, specifically the 2026 Kia EV9 Light Long Range trims with Option Groups 008 and 009, qualify.
Kia is offering a new rebate to compensate for some EV9 models losing eligibility for the federal EV tax credit. The discount, which is typically available when leasing, is now being offered on purchases as well. You may want to check with your local dealer to make sure you’re getting the best deal.
| Kia EV9 trim | 2025MY price | 2026MY price |
| EV9 Light Standard Range | $54,900 | $54,900 |
| EV9 Light Long Range | $59,900 | $57,900 |

Despite the discounts, Hyundai’s new three-row electric SUV, the IONIQ 9, still appears to be a better deal this month, offering up to $13,000 in savings.
The 2026 Kia EV9 is available for lease at $429 per month for 36 months, with a $4,999 due at signing. Hyundai’s IONIQ 9 is available for lease at just $419 per month, also for 36 months with $4,999 due at signing. The IONIQ 9 also boasts more overall interior space than the EV9.
