Vehicle Highlights
Kia's first large sedan shared its engine with corporate-parent Hyundai's XG350, but had different styling, a 2-inch-longer wheelbase, 4-inch-longer body, and some 350 lb more curb weight. It had a 3.5-liter V6 and 5-speed automatic transmission with manual shift gate. Antilock 4-wheel disc brakes, front and rear side airbags, and curtain side airbags were standard. So were dual-zone climate control, CD/cassette audio, keyless entry, and power front seats. Options included traction/antiskid control, leather upholstery, heated front seats, in-dash CD changer, and driver-seat memory system.
