This is an amazingly useful review! Nice to see a few more details about the car than most car reviewers show, being able to restrict the vehicle to load for example. We have a Sorento currently and two autistic daughters, plus a dog, and am mulling over changing to the EV9 when our current lease expires in a year. So this had really helped, thank you.
@@AdventureswithAutism yeah that was immediately obvious as I went back to watch your Sorento review. I've had an hours test drive in the EV9 so I'm quite keen although will probably stick with the Air model. Anyway, will watch some more of your content from an ASD perspective. Both my kids are ASD, both very sensory and one with PDA.
Nice clear practical review without any silly nonsense. It looks like a nice big family car for those who have access to reliable charging and can afford to finance £65k for the base model and not much less than £80k for the top spec with options. What's the insurance like if you don't mind saying so? It'll be interesting to see what effect depreciation has in the next year or two as to whether it'll then be a more realistic option for average families.
@@AdventureswithAutism I’m thinking of ev9 but the ott tech bongs put me off I get it’s for safety but it an eu directive and we aren’t in the eu Imo Kia should turn this off by default or atleast give you the option That and real world range is my worry No local Kia wants to lend us a car for a full 24 hours which is off putting as that’s the only way to test believable range
@user-ow9po1yf2s I would say we are getting between 2.1-2.8 miles/kwh with the lower end being on Motorway driving. The bongs you get used to and as long as you are under the speed limit they don’t go off. We are loving it really
Amazon. We have been through quite a few but these are the best ones we’ve had. Built in screen protector and a handle that doubles as an adjustable stand. amzn.eu/d/3UVF3k0
The gt line s is a 70k plus car.......not being rude but with all your kids and all your other expenses etc, how on earth do you afford the payments? Salary sacrifice?
Much better than car reviewers.
Thanks, we wanted to do a real review with a real family who actual live with the car
thats cool by the way
Best review! I got 3 kids too and it's the review I've been looking for!
Thank you so much! We were getting annoyed by the “reviewers” just using one person to use the car! We really appreciate your support
Lovely family you ave. Thank you for the review 👌🏼
Our pleasure!
Excellent review. So different from the "normal" car reviews. Thank you.
Great review esp for a family of 5 like mine. Thank you for sharing and the kids did a great job !!
Thanks, sometimes takes a little bribing lol
thats so cool by the way

Glad we can help! We had two Sorento before this, this gives us a lot more space

Admiring at your car.. gorgeous
Thanks, the hard work will be keeping it clean! 😂

Insurance isn’t great I’ll be honest, but we have it for business use as well for the wife’s work. We love the car and it works well for us.
Excellent Review.
Nice video from family perspective! Where did you buy that cargo protector (boot cover)? From kia directly?
Yeah I got it from the dealership when I bought the car along with the carpet mats
Your Mrs at 35:58 looks so impressed 😂😂
Haha yeah she had a really bad cold but we had no other opportunity to film

Mmm you got the matte version. nice!
Looks great! A pain to maintain though!
Can the front and back camera work as car cam recorder?
No not in Europe at least
@@AdventureswithAutism Too bad. But in Malaysia there is no Kia connect app, how about Europe?
Yeah we get it free for 7 years
Great review. Where did you get those iPad covers?

We work very hard for it. We also are lucky enough to have a very small mortgage
