The Ioniq 9 is the first Hyundai vehicle in Australia with Digital Key 2.0, a smartphone-based key that can be used to lock, unlock and start the vehicle using near-field communication and ultra-wideband technology.
This feature doesn't require a mobile network signal and, depending on the smartphone type, will continue to function even if a user's smartphone battery is flat.
Users can also share digital access to the vehicle with up to 15 devices. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
Also debuting in the Ioniq 9 is Google Places Search, allowing users to use text search to find places using a specific text string – for example, 'restaurants near me'.
The Ioniq 9 rides Hyundai Motor Group's E-GMP platform, a dedicated architecture for electric vehicles (EVs). This also underpins the similarly sized Kia EV9, which is the Ioniq 9's most direct rival.
The EV9 is available in three variants, though the flagship GT-Line – most comparable to the Ioniq 9 – is priced at $121,000 before on-road costs. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
The Ioniq 9 is the priciest Hyundai yet, surpassing even the Ioniq 5 N high-performance electric SUV, which is currently priced at $110,383 before on-road costs.
The Ioniq 9 is being offered here only in dual-motor all-wheel drive guise, with a pair of 157kW/350Nm electric motors. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
It rides on MacPherson strut front and five-link rear suspension, with a self-levelling damper system to help reduce sag when loaded with heavy cargo.
Hyundai claims it takes as little as 24 minutes to charge the Ioniq 9 from 10 to 80 per cent using a 350kW DC fast-charger.
While it rides on a different platform and has a longer wheelbase, the Ioniq 9 has an almost identical footprint to the upcoming second-generation Palisade large SUV. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Supplied Credit: CarExpert Supplied Credit: CarExpert
The Hyundai Ioniq 9 is backed by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre vehicle warranty and an eight-year, 160,000km high-voltage battery warranty. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
Under Hyundai's Lifetime Service Plan capped-price servicing scheme, the Ioniq 9 requires a service at 24 months/30,000km which costs $660, and then one at 48 months or 60,000km which costs $685.
The Hyundai Ioniq 9 has yet to be tested by ANCAP or Euro NCAP. Supplied Credit: CarExpert

‘Thermal runaway': Electric vehicles catching fire are ‘virtually impossible to put out'
CarExpert Founder Paul Maric discusses the flammability of electric cars, claiming that if the vehicle does catch fire as a result of its battery, 'thermal runaway' occurs and the vehicle becomes 'virtually impossible to put out'. This comes amid a US shipping company banning electric vehicles after a ship called the 'Morning Midas' sank from an electric vehicle fire. 'It's a bit of a mix of both … you've got issues with electric vehicles catching fire,' Mr Maric told Sky News host Steve Price. 'It's not as common, the problem is once they do catch fire, they get thermal runaway, and they're virtually impossible to put out.'

BYD Shark 6 ute finally gets some more colours
The BYD Shark 6 had a fairly limited colour palette, even by 2025 standards. That's now changed. The plug-in hybrid (PHEV) ute recently gained the option of an Outback Orange paint finish, its boldest one yet and one that neatly matches some of the orange trim elements inside. Now, BYD has added another exterior colour to the palette: Grey Mist. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. BYD describes it as "a sophisticated matte finish with unmistakable street presence", and it's now available to order. Like the existing Deep Sea Blue, Tidal Black and Outback Orange finishes, Grey Mist costs an extra $700. The BYD Shark 6 continues to be offered in a single Premium trim, priced at $57,900 before on-road costs. The electrified dual-cab 4×4 ute has helped fuel BYD's surge up the sales charts. It was the fifth best-selling brand in June – a feat never managed before by a Chinese brand in Australia – and the Shark 6 was the fifth best-selling model overall. It was just 126 deliveries behind the Isuzu D-Max, Australia's third best-selling ute, despite that model being available in a range of body styles and trim levels, and with a choice of two engines and rear- or four-wheel drive. The Shark 6 is currently Australia's best-selling PHEV and the 12th best-selling model overall with 10,424 deliveries to the end of June.
