The 2021 Kia K5 has officially replaced the Kia Optima. This all-new midsize sedan is able to offer a more dynamic driving experience while also having a roomier interior than its predecessor. With an exterior that is sleek and athletic, this sedan is sure to turn heads and add to the overall excitement of driving this vehicle. Everything about the K5 is new, including its mechanical components and its powertrain options.
Excellent Value and Affordability
The Kia Optima had great success, and the automaker has used that vehicle’s best and most popular components to build the all-new K5. Buyers get a lot for their money with the K5. Prices start at under $24,500, which lines right up with the competition.
Kia passes these competing vehicles by offering a much longer warranty which includes bumper-to-bumper coverage up to 60,000 miles as well as 100,000 miles of powertrain coverage. This warranty significantly reduces vehicle costs within these mileage limits.
Exceptional Standard Equipment
The overall value of the K5 is further highlighted by its exceptional list of equipment that comes standard on each model. The K5 LX is this sedan’s base model but it doesn’t resemble a low trim level in the least. Its standard LED multi-reflector headlights make for an immediate visual impact as do the attractive alloy wheels.
Some of the amenities that come standard include an advanced smartphone integration, Bluetooth, and an 8-inch touchscreen. The K5 is also loaded with the latest and most advanced safety innovations.
Economical and Powerful Base Powertrain
The base powertrain of the K5 is one of the vehicle’s most attractive components. Its engaging performance doesn’t sacrifice any fuel efficiency by delivering a combined EPA estimated 38 mpg. This standard engine is a 1.5-liter turbocharged, 4-cylinder powerhouse.
It kicks out 180 horsepower with a class-leading 195 lb-ft of torque. The updated 8-speed automatic gearbox quickly and smoothly sends power to the wheels while the quick acceleration encourages confident merging with plenty of passing power.
Bold and Attractive Body Style
Kia has built a reputation for building attractive and stylish vehicles. The K5 is a culmination of their best design techniques and modern touches. Its dramatic exterior styling demands the attention of onlookers whether driving down the road or parked in your driveway.
The front fascia is especially muscular while the sleek body adds a hint of sophistication. For a sportier exterior look, the GT-Line trim features racier bumpers and 18-inch sport wheels. New paint colors, like Passion Red and Sapphire Blue, help to further emphasize your K5’s distinction from the competition.
The all-new Kia K5 is an excellent addition to Kia’s vehicle lineup. It drives well, looks bold, and rewards growing families and groups of friends with plenty of passenger space. Every model of the new K5 has remarkable handling and excellent powertrain options to appease a multitude of drivers.
