The 2007-2008 Kia Amanti was a full-size sedan that marked Kia's foray into the luxury car segment. It was a significant departure from the brand's typical offerings, aiming to compete with established players like the Toyota Avalon and the Honda Accord. The Amanti was built on a modified Hyundai Grandeur platform, sharing its underpinnings with the Hyundai Azera. Its striking design featured a long, flowing body with a prominent chrome grille and sleek headlights. This elegant exterior was complemented by a spacious interior designed to offer comfort and luxury. The Amanti boasted a long list of standard features, including leather upholstery, heated front seats, a sunroof, and a premium sound system. Under the hood, the Amanti housed a powerful 3.8-liter V6 engine, producing 247 horsepower and 255 lb-ft of torque. Power was sent to the front wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission. The Amanti's handling was praised for its smooth and comfortable ride, while its fuel economy was considered average for its class. However, despite its ambitious aspirations, the Amanti faced challenges in the competitive luxury car market. It struggled to gain traction with consumers, hampered by a lack of brand recognition and a reputation for unreliability. Moreover, the Amanti's price point placed it in direct competition with established players who offered more prestige and a stronger track record. Ultimately, the Amanti was discontinued after the 2008 model year, leaving a lasting impact on Kia's trajectory towards becoming a more established and respected automotive brand. Though the Amanti failed to achieve the intended level of success, it served as a valuable stepping stone for Kia in its journey to establish itself as a manufacturer of premium vehicles. The lessons learned during the Amanti's short lifespan paved the way for the development of later models like the Cadenza and K900, which have garnered more success in the luxury car segment.
