2024 Kia K5

Overview

Need to balance your love for speed with good fuel efficiency for those everyday trips? The 2024 Kia K5 blends both into a sporty mid-sized sedan that never feels boring. If you can handle a little extra noise, you’ll reap the rewards of an athletic driving experience that makes the smallest trip into an experience. The good looks that start with the handsome exterior and include the updated cabin will make you feel confident in your choice every time you enter your garage. While the K5 has long been a popular pick for family drivers, it’s also stylish enough to make a thoughtful replacement for a speedy coupe. Trim packages allow you to adjust the features as you see fit. Think outside of the boxy sedan standard with the groundbreaking 2024 Kia K5.

Who's It For?

The K5 was designed for young professionals and growing families who don’t want to settle for a basic four-seater. The K5 is practical enough for getting to work or visiting vacation spots, but it’s also enjoyable to drive thanks to plenty of power and a carefully tuned suspension. If you upgrade to the GT-Line, you’ll get an even more attractive body kit that makes it easy to mistake this sedan for a sports car. All-wheel drive options also make this vehicle surprisingly versatile. Advanced driver safety features keep you moving firmly into the future without running extra risks on the road. Drivers who are constantly dealing with highway traffic will appreciate the power this car has for passing. If you're just looking for an all-around enjoyable and affordable sedan, this is likely a good fit for you.

Real World Performance

While the base engine is acceptable for your commute, the upgraded engine option is much more aggressive. You can add a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces a whopping 290 horsepower and 311 lb.-ft of torque, which results in an exciting 0-60 experience of under 6 seconds. The dual-clutch 8-speed automatic transmission gives you surprisingly good fuel efficiency despite the engine power. Extra-large disc brakes ensure perfect stopping response. There’s even a dual-zone climate control system to keep everyone comfortable on long drives. Opt for the trim package with a panoramic sunroof to soak in the beauty on a nice day. You’ll look for reasons to hop behind the wheel and take a spin when you’ve got the K5 in your garage. It's no luxury vehicle, but it offers many of the special infotainment and driver's safety features that are missing from other basic sedans.
