KITT had many variations throughout the Knight Rider series. The original KITT was a 1982 Pontiac Trans Am. It was a 2 door coupe with front engine and back-wheel drive. It was fitted with customised after burners and had a turbo jet. KITT could go from 0-60 mph in 2 seconds. 20 cars were purchased for the show. Many of them were destroyed after the show. 5 still remain and the original is now stored away and is occasionally brought to conventions. The name KITT stands for Knight industries 2000 but who says that. I didn't know that until today. We all just know it as KITT. KITT was voiced by William Daniels which 90's kids would know as Mr Feeny from Boy meets world. So what other things could KITT do besides the obvious Turbo boost and seat ejection Molecular shell to protect itself during explosions Heat resistant with the use of Pyroclastic lamination The control of other machines using the Electronic Jamming system Flame throwers, tear gas and flares Silent mode Shock res
