The IIHS recently released their first round of Top Safety Picks for 2025, and the Mustang Mach-E and Kia EV9 are the only electric SUVs in the mid-size range to score a Top Safety Pick+, not counting the luxury segment, where the Genesis Electrified GV70 scored gold. If you’re in the market for a family car, and you’ll settle for nothing but the safest of the safe, this is good news. Except, now you’ve got to narrow the choice down between these two, so, which one really is safer? And more reliable, and more comfortable, and more practical, for that matter?
