Rumored Kia Luxury Sedan: Kia K9 Sketches Released

Everyone wants to have an entry into the luxury sports sedan segment these days including, you would never guess, Kia! Yes, that’s right; Kia has introduced sketches of their upcoming Kia K9 luxury sedan. The counterparts rumored to be a part of this upcoming Korean luxury sports sedan are shared with the Hyundai Genesis sedan.  The Kia K9 would virtually be a sister car to that of the Genesis Sedan sporting a V8. Would that put a Kia up against the likings of an Audi A8 and BMW 7-series? Only time will tell. For now, enjoy the sketches of the upcoming Kia K9… and it is not a dog.

Hyundai’s Phatness: Hyundai VI Equus sketches

Hyundai has released sketches of what their next generation flagship sedan should look like. I saw this on some other blogs online and I could not resist posting the sketched images because I truly admire what Hyundai is doing. Many have said it could not be done by a Korean car company but they have really grasped a market here in America and abroad.

The Hyundai Equus was first made back in 1998 believe it or not and has not been changed much. It was originally developed in part with Mitsubishi and was named the Proudia in Japan although originally produced for the South Korean market. It may also be known as the Hyundai Centennial.

The Hyundai VI Equus sports rear wheel drive and is much bigger than it’s predecessors. Some believe this may be a long wheel base version of the Genesis but is thought to be a replacement for the outgoing Equus which could be slated for an American debut one day in the future.
