love the night reviews, it brings out the ambient lighting for us too see. Amazing to see how South Korea car companies like Hyundai and Kia have significantly surpassed many car companies from visual aesthetics of beauty and excellent interior quality and of course how safe they are to drive. Keep up the great work!
Thank you James for enjoying our night drives. Yes, I think the Kia K9 really surpassed many manufactures in terms of driving dynamics, features and design. Thank you.
@@eugene44569 Honda??? LMFAO i don't know what drugs you're taking. People that owned a Honda knows it has way more issues than Hyundai and KIA. And toyota is placed as 2nd for reliability.
🤣 the cutaways of the handling for every video always get me 0:30 . If I ever need to trust somebody on how a vehicle takes a turn, I think I know where to watch 😎
Probably never again. It was discontinued a couple of years back, along with all the large sedans from Hyundai/Kia in favor of the Genesis models. The sales figures were dismal. Even though they look amazing and are a lot better than many rivals (more car for the money), people just weren't buying them. They couldn't wrap their heads around spending $50-70k for a Hyundai or Kia. Hyundai Azera (Grandeur) and Kia Cadenza (K8) are gone. G80 is here. Kia K900 (K9) is gone. G90 is here instead. I would actually much prefer the Grandeur or K8 over the G80, but we'll never get that option anymore. However, I do prefer the G90 over the K9.
Yeah John. Genesis G80 certainly will appeal to more younger buyers, looking for more stylish car. But this Kia K9 just feels so much more spacious compared to the Genesis G90. And it's got all the features you ever need. Thanks John.
Thanks Charlie, great news for the Koreans to head up the auto sales there, you deserve it. I agree that the G80 looks better. Beautiful interior hear though, cars are lighting up like Christmas trees now inside !! The reversing lights seemed too small, do they do a good job though Charlie, sometimes over looked by some manufacturers , not throwing enough light down the road. Great to see another video from you,thank you. A
Thank you Andrew for your support! Yes, the Kia K9 has very nice interior with lots of ambient light. Once again thank you for your support, we will keep it coming!
I would really like it if you made an updated Bluelink video with the new 2022 Hyundai palisade because my family actually ordered one and it’s coming really soon 12 to 16 weeks so we’re pretty excited excited so please make an up-to-date video and explain us all the blue link features thank you
Okay. I drive 2019 Hyundai Palisade and I am getting regular updates regularly. But let me see if I can get 2022 Hyundai Palisade. Thank you for enjoying the Kia K9 review.
Interior and the driving features seems to be way better than the last gen G90. I heard that after discontinuing the cadenza in NA around 3 years ago, there were plans to introduce the new K8 HEV version to NA but it was disregarded due to the chip shortage and focus towards the more expensive Genesis sedans and more focus on the Telluride and Sorentos for NA
It’s too bad we no longer get this k900 in the US. Test drove the 2nd gen when it came out and I loved it as the ultimate isolation / relaxation car, esp for the price. But 3 yrs later, I think ev is the way to go for for a relaxed, quiet ride. I’m waiting to receive my Ioniq 5 instead.
A great car that didn't need a facelift and which looks even better now...Too bad Kia didn't advertise it or even show it on their website for North America. It looks like a great mix of the Genesis G80 and G90 with modern lights
I am here to see the matrix LED but non of that I saw I hope you focus on the headlights performance 80% of the night reviews exactly the same as you did with G80 thanks overall for the good coverage and reviews
I'm not a watch expert but I speak French. The Maurice Lacroix clock is pronounced "moris lacroa" with the typical French "R". Nice lengthy review, thanks!
Very nice. I would take this over the 2023 G90 that just came out. This K9 looks better than the new G90, IMO. I wish I could fly to South Korea, buy a K9, and ship it back to USA!! Then I would have to get a couple of things modified to make it street legal. But I was told at a Kia dealer, that would void any warranty! :( Still might be worth it!!
Hi Nate. I am not sure if you guys will be getting the new Kia K9 in Middle East. But really hope you guys do get the Kia K9 soon. Thank you for your support!
It looks much better than the K900 we had. Not good value, but would've been good to get it used after depreciation. After the pandemic pricing of course.
Any idea why this doesn't have the Lexicon sound system? It looks like a mix between the 2017 G90 platform/interior mixed with the 2021 G80 screen, massage and software so I don't get why they would change the sound system just in this one.
I have a question sir. Since I love this new K900, and I can’t buy it here in the US, is it possible if I ask my local KIA dealership to order me a K9 from South Korea? Would they deliver it? 😭 if not, what other way can I get it?
This is a real car in the United States in fact the Kia dealer in my network of dealerships only had one vacay 900 a rare car since it was only sold here until 2020 I think it’s a great alternative to the S-class. Press the Kia dealership that was on the network of dealerships I worked for in 2019 only had one in stock for about six months and a lot of people that went for a German cars didn’t know about the Koreans making Marjorie vehicles and how impressive they are

@@southkiddJ Yes, we do have a K8! But it's not the Cadenza. The Cadenza was the K7, which was a slightly smaller car than the K8. They've discontinued the K7 here as well.
They discontinued the Cadenza (K7). Instead, they stretched the chassis a little and gave it a thorough makeover, including awd, and now they call it K8.
LeBron was in the K9(00) in those Kia commercials. I don't think the K9 got all that much roomier in the second generation or this facelift. They don't sell the K900 in the US anymore, so LeBron is endorsing Hummer now...
