KIA has marked its return to the SEMA Show in Las Vegas with the unveiling of two all-electric concept vehicles, including the bold EV9 ADVNTR Concept SUV.

The Kia EV9 ADVNTR adds typical off-road accoutrements to the three-row SUV, including a 3-inch suspension lift, new wheels and tires, light bars, and a roof rack.

The electric three-row SUV gets unique front and rear styling, a three-inch lift, and reinforced rocker panels that improve its off-road capability.

Two concepts take the stage at Kia's booth at SEMA and prompt the possibilities with EVs as they become more common.

The two Kia concepts on display in Vegas this week both focus on off-road driving. We have a reworked version of the EV9 electric SUV, and we have a modified PV5 van. The latter was presented at the CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas last January. The models are called EV9 ADVNTR and PV5 WKNDER.

Kia has shown what rugged versions of its EV9 and upcoming PV5 van might be like with a pair of concepts at the 2024 SEMA show.
