The new K5 has a pronounced sporty character – the “tiger smile” grille has become wider, its design<\/a> and execution have changed, combined into a single compositional solution with headlights. At the same time, the designers retained the smoothness of the lines in the front of the sedan. Due to the extended fenders and a special “narrowing” body stamping at the bottom of the doors, the silhouette of the new K5 turned out to be “lean” and swift.<\/p>\n

A sporty accent to the car is also given by frameless doors and a descending chrome piping along the edges of the roof, which smoothly wraps around the lower cut of the rear window. The size of the Kia K5 is 4905 mm (+50 mm) long, 1860 mm (+25 mm) wide and 1445 mm (-20 mm) high. It is worth noting that the wheelbase has increased to 2850 mm, which will make the ride smoother and reduce the range of longitudinal “buildup”.<\/p>\n

Technical characteristics of the Korean business sedan will be presented by a 2.0-liter MPI engine with multiport injection (150 hp and 192 Nm of torque) paired with a classic 6-speed automatic transmission (for Classic, Comfort, Luxe, Prestige versions and Style), as well as a 2.5-liter GDI engine (194 hp and 246 Nm of torque) in combination with an 8-speed automatic transmission (for Luxe, Prestige, Style, GT Line and GT Line + versions). Both powertrain options will be offered with front-wheel drive.<\/p>\n
