Kia K900 Overview
With the launch of the second generation of the 2019 K900, Kia aimed to change attitudes surrounding its luxury flagship sedan from “why does Kia make a $60,000 car?” to “why is this Kia K900 only $60,000?” The new K900 features a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system and gets its grunt from a twin-turbocharged 3.3-liter V6 that makes 365 horsepower and 376 pound-feet of torque.
Based on the same platform used for the high-end corporate cousin Genesis G90, the K900 is longer, wider and rides on a longer wheelbase. It offers 110.3 cu ft of interior passenger volume and 15.3 cu ft of cargo volume in the trunk. The K900 only has one trim, Luxury, and Kia threw the book at this thing in terms of features, conveniences and up-to-date safety technology.
Trim Specifications
The available $4,400 VIP package, one of only a small handful of options, is all about pampering the rear passengers. In addition to the upgrade from a 7.0-inch instrument cluster digital display to a 12.3-inch unit, the VIP treatment includes ventilated rear seats (14-way power-adjustable passenger side, 12-way power driver side) improved rear ventilation, a rear wireless phone charger, and a premium headliner. The only other optional features are wheel locks, a bumper applique and a paint protection package.
