The 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 Dual Motor AWD represents Hyundai's flagship electric SUV, built on the Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) with three-row seating capability. This all-wheel-drive configuration features dual permanent magnet synchronous motors—one per axle—delivering combined propulsion and regenerative braking. The 110.3 kWh battery pack enables DC fast charging at up to 350 kW under optimal conditions. As a body-on-frame-style EV with substantial curb weight, maintenance focuses on brake fluid service intervals, tire rotations accounting for electric torque characteristics, and cooling system procedures for the battery thermal management system.
