One of my ADHD superpowers (or curses lol) is that I do exhaustive research on anything I purchase, whether it’s $100 or $100,000. Even before I got the 2026 EV9 GT-Line, I was looking at accessories. These are the ones that I think are must-haves, so far.

PROTECTION:

All-Weather Floor Mats (https://linerx.com/products/linerx-floor-mats-for-2024-kia-ev9)

Note: I could not find any on Amazon, as they all said “not compatible with 2nd Row Relaxation Mode)

LASFIT Backrest & Cargo Mats (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F2MTJQ2S?ref=ppx\_pop\_mob\_ap\_share)

Mud Flaps Splash Guards (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CWNY4JBZ?ref=ppx\_pop\_mob\_ap\_share)

Fitcamx 4K Dash Cam (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D8FRZKCP?ref=ppx\_pop\_mob\_ap\_share)

Circular Polarizing Filter (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CR9WSXZH?ref=ppx\_pop\_mob\_ap\_share)

Note: The BlackVue/KIA 970x is probably better, but for less than $200, the FitCamX works and super easy to install - it also is more concealed.

STORAGE:

I can wait, because my reservation was on the later side, but I really want to see the cargo space in person. I’m curious for those that have seen it, what they think about the cargo space. I’ve always been a 3-Row SUV guy. However, I have 2 kids (and made sure I won’t be having more lol), so I don’t actually use the 3rd Row except on the rare occasion I have to take a couple other kids home from school (and wouldn’t mind having the excuse that I can’t lol). But that extra space has served us well on road trips and vacations when we drive. I’m currently in a 2026 KIA EV9 GT-Line and I absolutely love it, but I’ve always lusted after the Rivian R1 but it was just too much money for my blood. With the R2, I’m wondering if I can get away with the smaller size with the cargo space. It also has a bigger frunk and much deeper rear well than the EV9, which adds to the storage space.

Must have accessories IMO
