The letter "K" represents not only Kia and the company's home country of Korea, but also refers to the Greek word "Kratos" (meaning powerful, domination and reign) and the English word "Kinetic" (meaning active, dynamic).
The "K" series trio of sedans is a strong statement of Kia's determination to offer consumers the broadest product line-up and establish itself as a major presence in the global automotive industry through ceaseless innovation and technological developments.
The Kia K9's exterior gives solid form to the recently released sketches of the new model, and presents its design concept, "high-tech luxury sedan" image, with futuristic, sophisticated and distinctive charisma.
K9 complement the presence of K5 (Kia Optima) and K7 (Kia Cadenza) in South Korea. At first glance the design of its body like a BMW 7 Series. Grille by design 'tiger nose' still attached. The impression of luxury comes from LED lights, the lines of a strong body, bumpers (rear) integrated with the muffler, and the chrome decoration on the stern.
"Kia K9 will be Kia's first big sedan having a rear-wheel," said Soon-Nam Lee, Director of the Overseas Marketing Group. "He came with no compromise in design, driving performance and technology."
