Kia K5 Trim Levels and Specs

Five trim levels, two powertrain options, and enough tech to make the interior feel like a moving command center — our new Kia K5 inventory is built for drivers who want more car for their dollar.

Every single trim ships standard with a serious driver assistance suite, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, and wireless smartphone connectivity.

The K5 LXS FWD is the entry point, and it already arrives with features most competitors charge extra for.

A 2.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine delivers 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque through an 8-speed automatic transmission to the front wheels.

EPA estimates come in at an impressive 26 city / 37 highway / 30 combined MPG.

The 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, and the full driver assistance package are all standard here.

This is genuinely a lot of sedan for the price.

Add all-wheel drive to the GT-Line formula, and you get the GT-Line AWD — a configuration that handles Fort Lauderdale's unpredictable rain-soaked roads with considerably more grip and composure.

Beyond the AWD system itself, this trim upgrades to a heated steering wheel and introduces Drive Mode Select with a dedicated Snow Mode if you’re ever headed North.

The 2.5-liter engine still produces 191 horsepower, sending power to all four corners through the same 8-speed automatic, with EPA estimates of 24 city / 33 highway MPG.

Sport styling plus all-weather capability is a compelling combination.

The EX is where the K5 pivots from sporty to genuinely luxurious.

Ten-way power-adjustable heated and ventilated SynTex front seats greet both driver and passenger, and a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel rounds out the cockpit experience.

The big visual statement is the dual 12.3-inch curved display setup — instrument cluster and infotainment screen curve together in one panoramic sweep.

Sound-absorbing front door window glass quiets the cabin considerably, and the 12-speaker Bose premium audio system turns the interior into a proper listening room.
