Should you buy the 009?
Reasons to buy
- Only luxury electric people mover on sale in Australia. Captain's chairs that heat, cool, massage and rotate, 360 kW DC charging for a 28-minute 10 to 80 per cent on the 116 kWh battery, 582 km WLTP range, and 4.5 seconds 0 to 100 makes it the fastest people mover sold here.
- Warranty: 5 years, unlimited km (8 years or 200,000 km battery).
- 140 L (980 L row 3 folded) boot, segment-competitive cargo space.
Reasons to wait
- Single grade with no lower-spec option for chauffeurs, 5.2 metres long means parking and tight streets need planning, direct retail means no traditional dealer network outside metro, and the brand has minimal Australian residual track record.
- You want a lower-spec grade for fleet duty (none offered), a more compact people mover for tight streets (Kia Carnival or Hyundai Staria), a hybrid or diesel for long highway runs, or a brand with a stronger Australian residual record.
- Cross-shop the Kia Carnival HEV at one end and the Lexus LM at the other. For families big enough to need three rows and well-off enough to want the rear cabin to feel like a flagship sedan, nothing else in Australia does what the 009 does.
- Top trim climbs to $135,900 plus on-roads.
