Kia K5 2019– car dimensions: 4905 mm long, 1860 mm wide and 1445 mm high. Unladen weight is 1,413 kg. Boot space with the seats up is 510 litres.
The cabin centers on a driver-focused layout with an 8-inch or 10.25-inch touchscreen that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, often wireless. Dual-zone automatic climate control keeps temperatures steady for front passengers. A reversing camera with guidelines is standard, while parking sensors appear on higher grades. Forward collision-avoidance assist with automatic emergency braking is standard, as is lane keeping assist that steers to hold the center of the lane. Blind-spot collision warning and smart cruise control with stop-and-go come on select trims, along with options like a head-up display and Bose audio for clearer alerts and quieter drives.
The trunk holds 510 litres with the rear seats up, enough for several large bags or weekly shopping. A 60/40 split-folding rear seat expands the space for longer items when needed.
No published towing or payload figures appear in maker materials for this generation. Sport-tuned suspension is limited to the GT grade for firmer handling on twisty roads. The sedan suits daily commuting and family trips more than heavy work use, with the available all-wheel-drive option adding confidence in wet conditions.
The cabin feels spacious thanks to the long wheelbase, with supportive seats that offer heating and ventilation on higher grades plus multi-way power adjustment and lumbar. Acoustic laminated glass cuts wind noise for a quieter ride. A panoramic roof opens up the space on equipped trims, and the passenger relaxation seat adds recline options for long trips.
