2024 Kia K5 Specs, Price, Features, Mileage and Review
It seems exhilarating to drive what felt like a normal family car before. Perhaps it’s the small flicker in the Kia K5’s amber parking lights. The basic K5 turbocharged four-cylinder engine generates 180 horsepower; however, K5s with the GT designation create 290 horsepower. That’s 5.2 seconds to sixty miles per hour in what looks like a Hertz rental car. The K5 is a powerful machine, but even with its all-season tires and front-wheel drive system, it’s still a lot of fun to drive and features a smooth-moving eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (eight-speed automatic in non-GT models). The base engine is the only one that offers all-wheel drive as an option. Nevertheless, equipped with an abundance of common features like Wi-Fi with features like Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and rear cross-traffic alert, the K5 is a sporty and competitive alternative to the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord.
What Is 2024 Bringing?
Kia hasn’t made many changes to the K5 for 2024, but they have improved the GT-Line trim level’s features. The K5 GT-Line will be equipped with heated front seats by default in 2024. The GT-Line offers a pleasing blend of sporty stylistic aspects at a very appealing price, making it a good option for individuals who don’t care about the extra power that comes with the GT’s 290-hp engine. That’s the one we would suggest, and for an additional $1600, it can be equipped with all-wheel drive for better grip in all weather conditions. A sharper body makeover, 18-inch wheels, a 10-way power driver’s seat, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and wireless smartphone charging are among the standard features of every GT-Line. Additionally, we would purchase the Premium package, which includes full LED headlights, advanced forward-collision warning, and adaptive cruise control.
