    Disgusting!
    How many different models from different car brands have they copied?
    BMW is pretty obvious.

    Since 2006, Kia hired Schreyer as Chief Design Officer, he was responsible for the design of cars like the Audi TT, A6 and A3 and Volkswagen New Bettle, Golf and Eos, so it is normal that Kia has an more european "inspiration" for their new designs.

    Kia and Hyundia in recent years have totally started poaching other companies designs.

    It's really called the K9? The Korean dog car. hmmm.

    Reminds me of when Chevy tried to sell the Nova in Mexico and it flopped b/c the translation is "No Go"

    There are a few Mercedes interior elements too - dials on the steering wheel and the power seat controls.

    Not sure why everyone is dogging the K9. Har har

    Even though it has shapes and styles from BMW Merc Audi it still has a KIA cheapness/plastic look to it. That I like!
