The Best All-Wheel-Drive SUVs in 2025

An Edmunds Top Rated award winner for 2024, the Kia EV9 was the first mainstream three-row EV, and for a family that’s ready to make the leap to fully electric motoring, it’s one of the most compelling vehicles in this burgeoning segment. Spacious, feature-packed and handsomely styled, the EV9 combines strong value with excellent ride quality and agile handling for its size. Although you’ll have to step up to the Wind model to get all-wheel drive, the EV9 still costs substantially less than similarly equipped models from the likes of Rivian, Tesla and BMW. Tesla’s NACS charge port replaces the CCS port on 2026 EV9 models.
