FactKia launched the K900 with a Super Bowl XLVIII ad in which Laurence Fishburne reprised his role as Morpheus from The Matrix.
The first K9 (KH), sold as the K900 in the United States and Canada and the Quoris elsewhere, was a rear-wheel-drive luxury sedan built in Gwangmyeong and Kaliningrad from 2012 to 2018. It derived from the Hyundai Equus and Genesis on the BH-L platform and was the first rear-drive sedan Kia sold in the US. It used 3.3 and 3.8-litre V6s and a 5.0-litre Tau V8 with an eight-speed automatic.

Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
