The 2021 Kia K5 is an all-new midsize sedan with modern and sporty styling and offers buyers up-market features with great affordability at the same time. The base model has a starting price of around $24,000. 1. Stunning Exterior Design The 2021 K5 boasts a bold exterior design that demands attention. The front end has a muscular look combined with a sleek body design. The four-door sedan appears as if it is ready to go at any time. Five distinctive trim levels are also available. 2. Powerful Powertrain The 2021 K5 comes with a powerful all-new 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The engine produces 180 horsepower and a massive 195 pound-feet of torque, which is extraordinary for a sedan in this class. The turbocharged power plant is paired with a quick-shifting eight-speed transmission that doesn't wait to drop down a gear when you want it to. 3. Performance GT Trim The 2021 K5 GT trim is the upper-level trim and comes with an even more powerful 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The GT offers buyers more engine performance and acceleration and an array of additional options. The 2.5-liter turbo blasts out a wheel-spinning 290 horsepower. 4. Excellent Fuel Economy Being turbocharged engines, both the standard and the upgraded turbocharged power plants offer excellent fuel economy for owners, unless you really put your foot to the ground. The EPA estimates the standard engine offers owners 29 mpg around town and 38 mpg when driving on the freeway. The more powerful turbocharged engine delivers 24 mpg around the city and will earn drivers 32 mpg on the highway. 5. All-Wheel-Drive Option Kia is well known for manufacturing quality front-wheel-drive cars. However, the K5 comes with the option of AWD. If the rain or snow starts to fall, this AWD system will automatically assist drivers on slippery roads or where asphalt is unavailable. 6. Agile Driving Experience The all-new 2021 K5 offers drivers a pleasing and agile driver experience. Road handling is sensational due to the low and wide stance. The K5 feels poised, giving drivers confidence when driving around the city or changing lanes at higher speeds. Even with the athletic driving experience, the sedan still offers a comfortable ride taking bumps in the road in its stride. 7. Interior Layout and Comfort The K5 looks simply amazing on the outside. The interior design continues those stunning good looks with an intelligent layout and comfortable seating for five adult passengers. The interior comes with an array of upscale interior features that include ambient dash and door lighting, ventilated front seats, and a panoramic power sunroof. 8. Spacious Trunk The rear of the 2021 K5 has plenty more room for all your gear and luggage. The trunk can fit around seven carry-on suitcases. The 60-40 folding bench seat can be opened up for even more cargo-carrying space when required. 9. Infotainment and Audio System The K5 infotainment system comes with a standard 8.0-inch responsive touchscreen and an optional 10.25-inch touchscreen. The touchscreen is housed inside the dashboard directly to the right of the gauge cluster. The 8.0-inch version pairs with Apple and Android wirelessly, but the larger screen requires a corded connection. Dual-Bluetooth is standard, and an optional 12-speaker Bose audio system is also available. 10. Major Safety and Driver Aids The 2021 K5 was awarded a five-star crash-test rating by the NHTSA and was also awarded Top Safety Pick+ by the IIHS. A host of standard and optional driver-assistance technology is available on the K5. Some of those key technologies include hill-hold control, forward-collision warning with emergency braking, blind-spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert, and lane-keeping assist. With a low starting price and a range of extras and options available on the affordable premium trims, it is easy to understand why the K5 is getting so much attention.
