Used 2018 Kia K900 Consumer Reviews
Bought off lease 2019 and it's worth more today
I always liked the Hyundai Equus but it was above my price when new. Found out that Kia was purchased by Hyundai and the K900 was a re-badged Genesis with the Equus V8 GTI engine. I was showing my son some K900's online one day and found a beauty for sale in the Cleveland area. It was such a good deal, I bought it sight unseen. I flew in from CT to pick it up. I have never regretted that decision. The car is amazing. Solid as a rock and extremely powerful and comfortable. The AC compressor blew out while the car was still under a 5 year warranty so the dealership replaced it for free. It had a trunk leak, and that truly is a design problem, but it's been fixed as well. Only other issue is the door handle stops on these cars were poorly designed and they keep breaking. Right now, February 2022, I cannot find that part anywhere in the world. They are literally sold out everywhere on planet earth because they break so often. That is a problem of owning a limited edition luxury car; many things can break and parts can be hard to find. Other than that, I love the car. I will drive it into the ground. The only thing missing is lane assist. It was an option at the time and the lessee didn't order it. Lots of ways to listen to music. It has a hard drive for the "jukebox", which you are supposed to be able to load with a thumb drive, but it has never worked. Heated and cooled leather seats, even in the back seat. Update from August 2022, everything still is good with the car. Looking for a software update but Hyundai only offers road map updates. It would be nice if I could download apps and run them on the vehicle (like Google Android Mobile) but software is not available.

This is my 2nd K900!
Briefly, I owned a 2015 K900 VIP, great vehicle in every way and after life events 7 years later, I needed to find another vehicle...saw a rare K900 in a dealership lot. Bought it. All the options: adaptive cruise, ac/heated seats x 4...soft close doors....german quality in build and interior/tech/touch. Well done Kia. The newest version is another masterpiece.

1970's Luxury
Goodness, this is a Buick, Chrysler, Lincoln of the '70's. Don't expect much more. It's a grand highway machine, lousy on gas around town, but thrifty (25+ MPG) on what it does best -- highway cruising. On recent trip down I85 for a few hundred miles we enjoyed a superb sound system, more than adequate gas mileage, and miles of blissful comfort. Buy a '70's Time Machine, you won't be disappointed.

Great car. Great price / choose dealer carefully
It’s like driving your sofa down the highway. 2ed review Still love the car. Although after an electrical issue with the radio(only issue I’ve had) I have concluded that Kia is not ready for prime time. First dealership said that they couldn’t find the issue and returned the car. The next dealer called in a Kia engineer. It took 8 months to find the issue(still not repaired). It’s going on 10 months now. Still waiting for a part to arrive( to let you know this issue started long before the supply disruptions). It would appear to me that Kia does not have competent engineers. I’ve changed my rating from 5 to 2 stars. Not because of the car but the incompetence of Kia dealerships and Kia itself. I’ll never purchase another Kia. If you do, choose your dealership carefully.
