As the automotive industry continues to embrace the electric revolution, Kia has been making its mark with impressive electric offerings. The Kia EV9, already acclaimed for its range, efficiency, and cutting-edge technology, is about to receive an electrifying boost in the form of the GT variant. The confirmation of the Kia EV9 GT has sent shockwaves through the industry, with enthusiasts eagerly anticipating its release.

One can reasonably expect that the Kia EV9 GT will feature a more powerful electric motor, delivering increased horsepower and torque. This upgrade will undoubtedly result in improved acceleration, allowing drivers to experience the thrill of instant torque that electric vehicles are renowned for.

Additionally, it's anticipated that Kia will equip the EV9 GT with a more advanced suspension system, optimized for sportier dynamics. This should provide sharper handling, allowing drivers to confidently maneuver through corners and enjoy a more engaging driving experience. A lower ride height and aerodynamic enhancements could also be part of the package, further contributing to the GT's enhanced performance.

In terms of design, the Kia EV9 GT is expected to feature sportier aesthetics to differentiate it from the standard EV9. Sleek and aggressive styling cues, such as a revised front grille, unique alloy wheels, and subtle aerodynamic enhancements, may be incorporated to reflect the GT's performance-focused nature.

While the Kia EV9 GT's performance upgrades are the main draw for enthusiasts, it's important to note that Kia is likely to retain the impressive range and efficiency that the EV9 is known for. This means that drivers can expect the GT variant to provide an exhilarating driving experience without sacrificing the practicality and convenience that electric vehicles offer.

Porsche plans a trio of powertrains for the Cayenne into the next decade

For more than 20 years, the Cayenne has been characterised by its ability to provide the broad range of qualities between characteristic Porsche driving performance, excellent comfort in everyday driving, and great capability when driving off-road. The future models of the SUV will seamlessly continue this success story, retaining all of the car’s familiar features.

“The Cayenne has always defined the sports car in its segment. In the middle of the decade, the fourth generation will set standards in the segment as an electric SUV,” said Blume, CEO of Porsche AG. At the same time, into the next decade our customers will still be able to choose from a wide range of powerful and efficient combustion and hybrid models.

"The third generation of the Cayenne will be further upgraded and will continue to be offered alongside the fourth, all-electric generation".

The current Cayenne generation, which last year was given one of the most extensive product upgrades in the history of Porsche, will be further developed with major technological investment in the future. Here the developers will be focusing, among other things, on the powertrains, in particular on improving the efficiency of the V8 developed by Porsche and built at the Zuffenhausen engine plant. Extensive technical measures will ensure that the twin-turbo engine is ready to comply with future legislative requirements.
