The Kia K900 slots into an odd spot in the market; it's a little larger than most similarly-priced mid-size sedans, which means it may be too big for some drivers.
Then again, some may be attracted to its value size dimensions and pricing.
Its most obvious rival is the Genesis G80, which shares much of its underpinnings and its engine.
The G80 is a terrific vehicle and it's about $8,500 less than the K900.
If you're attracted to the K900, you'll want to shop the G80 and then demand a massive discount on the K900.
Other worthy adversaries also include the stylish Volvo S90, the roomy and unique Infiniti Q70, the polished Cadillac CTS, and the advanced Acura RLX.
Each brings something unique to the segment—something we can't really say about the K900, unfortunately.
