This was in October 2024 when Kia Lucky Motors started its electric lineup in Pakistan. The company brought EV5 (AIR, EARTH) to the local market. Later, on January 17th, the company teased its audience with a brief message, urging them to “stay tuned” for an upcoming major announcement. Shortly after, Kia reinforced the suspense with another cryptic hint, further fueling curiosity.
We investigated the matter and came to know that Kia is ready to introduce another electric SUV to the Pakistani market – the EV9. And we reported all these episodes in our blog. However, the company has launched the EV9 in Pakistan and has also revealed all the necessary details, translating price, features, and specifications.

In Both countries it is a CBU import.
