context_page_description: The Kia K9, marketed as the Kia K900 in the United States and Canada and as the Kia Quoris in other export markets, is a mid-size luxury sedan manufactured and marketed by Kia Motors, now in its second generation.
  The K9 was launched in South Korea in May 2012, with export sales beginning in late 2012. As of June 2013, it was sold in South Korea, the Middle East, Colombia, Chile, Guatemala, Peru, Russia, the United States, and Canada. There are plans to release it in China, although Kia will not use the Quoris nameplate after a lost legal battle.
  The second generation Quoris was launched in 2018.
context_section_description: Kia debuted the all new K9/K900 (still sold as the Quoris in a few markets) at the March 2018 New York Auto Show. The new generation is longer and wider than the outgoing model, and has a wheelbase stretched by about 2.3 inches (60 mm). It is expected to retain the same 8-speed transmission, as well as the same three engine choices. The interior will feature higher quality leather and wood trim, as well as an analog clock developed by Maurice Lacroix. Kia also introduced an AWD model in South Korea for the second generation.
