The redesigned, second-generation K900 serves as the flagship sedan for Kia.
It is positioned as a value-driven luxury car that promises the features and experience found in prestige-brand rivals at a significantly lower cost.
It is motivated by a 3.3-liter twin-turbo V6, producing 365 hp.
This Stinger-shared engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
Power is routed as needed via an all-wheel-drive system.
Kia says the K900 is quieter than before.
The well-appointed interior offers large screens, plus a 9.7-inch head-up display.
The comprehensive suite of safety systems has some interesting features, such as a live video feed of adjacent lanes activated by the turn signal, driver attention monitor, and an exit assist that watches for potential hazards when opening a door. Kia has discontinued the K900 after the 2020 model-year version.
Kia's flagship is the brand's first rear-drive model and cousin of the Hyundai Equus.
It is offered with a smooth and punchy 420-hp V8 with an 8-speed automatic.
The K900 is like a traditional freeway cruiser: more comfortable wafting along in a straight line than carving corners.
The base infotainment system uses a 9.2-inch screen, and top trims get a 12-inch display.
A central controller manages the menus and selections, but it takes some getting used to.
The cabin is very roomy.
Safety options include blind-spot and lane-detection systems, rear cross-traffic alert, a wraparound camera, and front-collision warning.
A V6 was introduced in 2016.
