Kia has published the first photos of the interior of the updated flagship K9 sedan, the pre-styling version of which is sold in Russia under the name K900.

Infotainment service packs will be downloaded automatically from cloud storage. Plus, some of the functions of the large sedan can be controlled remotely using a smartphone. Finally, Kia noted that the flagship model received improved noise insulation and additional options for personalizing the interior.
