While having the same acronym, the KITTs are two different entities: one known as the Knight Industries Two Thousand, which appeared in the original TV series Knight Rider, and the other as the Knight Industries Three Thousand, which appeared first in the two - hour 2008 pilot film for a new Knight Rider TV series and then the new series itself . In both instances, KITT is an artificially intelligent electronic computer module in the body of a highly advanced, very mobile, robotic automobile: the original KITT as a 1982 Pontiac Firebird, and the second KITT as a 2008 / 2009 Ford Shelby GT500KR . KITT was voiced by William Daniels in the original series, and by Val Kilmer in the 2008 series . </P> <P> A 1991 sequel movie Knight Rider 2000 saw KITT's original microprocessor unit transferred into the body of the vehicle intended to be his successor, the Knight Industries Four Thousand (Knight 4000), voiced by Carmen Argenziano and William Daniels . </P>
