Kia has introduced a new entry-level K900 sedan in the US market, introducing a new engine option and reducing the base price for the 2016 model year.
The package centers around an all-new 3.8-liter V6 engine with 311 horsepower on tap. The sedan had been introduced in the US with a V8 as the only available powerplant, delivering 420 horsepower.
The ‘V6 Premium’ trim features a navigation system, leather seating, a panoramic sunroof and 18-inch wheels, all for $49,950 (excluding freight). The MSRP represents a savings of nearly $10,000 compared to the initial loaded V8 model.
All 2016 K900s have received a few minor exterior tweaks, including a revised front grille and a new rear-end design with tweaks to the chrome trim, exhaust pipes, taillight design and bumper. Other new features range from a Smart Power Trunk to available automatic emergency braking.
The interior brings an improved nav system presented on a 9.2-inch HD touchscreen, while Kia’s remote apps support start/stop, climate control and lock/unlock. Parents can also set curfew, speed alerts and geofence settings to track their young drivers.
