Deficiencies noted. Just goes to show, don’t take for granted that a feature works WELL just because it has it. I never imagined they could screw up these things like BlindSpot monitoring. Kia confuses by having a more basic GT Line vs a top end GT. Furthermore, you need the GT1 package at $4,200 to make it shine.

Been thinking about buying a 2024 K5 GT. Nice informative list. A lot of the items you talk about seem to be universal. Like I have the same exact issues with the beeping when no cars are around, or the cold weather creaking with my Ford Fusion.

I agree that they should have added a handle for the trunk and also a/c for the back seats. Kinda missed on that. The wireless charger seems to be useless even though mine works perfectly I use Apple car play any way so it’s just a wasted feature. Only really used both at the same time one time so 🤷‍♂️

So I had my car crashed into and the insurance gave me a payout, now I'm trying to find a new car to purchase, however I want something reliable and economical and so far I never thought of purchasing a KIA. My last car was a Toyota Carolla, I had that car for over 10 years and I rarely had any issues with it, it was such a economical vehicle, but this time I don't want to purchase a Toyota or Honda so now I'm considering getting a KIA K5 since it fits my budget and I keep hearing so many good things about it. So thanks for posting this video, it was very informative because a lot of the other videos that come up are usually people trying to sell you on it and not actually talking about the cons. Thanks again. 🚗🚗

I’m glad my video was helpful, make sure to watch my video of things I like. I’ve owned it for over two years and I’ve had zero problems, I still get compliments though, you should check out the 2025 version, they changed the front and back end, it looks really cool.

The remote start immediately cuts off if you open any door besides the driver door. And if you open the driver door while it's running from the remote start and you don't get in the car to activate the engine completely (it senses the key isnt present), it will turn off as well. Its an anti theft feature. I do agree with the headlights being too sensitive when you drive under tunnels in auto mode. I had an older model Kia and my sensors were not that sensitive. And yes the smart trunk feature is hella annoying. It should have a kick sensor because many times you don't intend to open the trunk but it opens anyway. But definitely a good video from an owner's perspective

Have this exact car. Most of your issues with it I feel are minor which is good I guess. My biggest one is the Cruise Control. Is there a way to just change it to normal cruise? I haven't figured it out if there is... The front camera thing you mentioned about keeping clean is good to know. I have had weird instances where forward safety disable or just doesn't read cars in front of me... Also the speakers are very underwhelming. I had to have a 8inch powered sub installed to the car just to make the speakers sound cleaner. Other than that the only thing I will say. I prefer wired carplay. I drove a Chevy Trailblazer before this with that feature and it would have so many connection issues. It was definitely more on apple than the car. Every phone update had do to with carplay for awhile.

Kia is an inexpensive brand that cuts corners in many ways. Designs look attractive, but they are inexpensive for reasons other than the cheap labor costs to build them. Come back in 10 years and see how they age against a Toyota, Honda, Mazda. The results will be obvious. Short term satisfaction if that’s all you need.

It does not feel cheap. Minimal piano black plastic really helps, and a variety of textures throughout the cabin make the ‘23 GT-Line interior feel nice. Especially when compared with other makes in this sector. Note that the stereo sounds like crap though (very little power and narrow frequency response). This was the only truly “cheap” disappointment I have with my ‘23 GT-Line. Hardly any bass, doesn’t get very loud without distortion. With its unique 10.25” widescreen infotainment system, I’d really like to know what can be done to fix this (likely an amp and all new speakers).

Something is fishy with the build on that one. I’ve been driving mine for 8 months through killer heat and bitter cold and have never heard a single sound that was out of place. Something is up with all the strange sounds and “flexing” you described - that isn’t normal.

The only thing I don’t like about mine is that the minute a few snowflakes land on the front ADAS sensors (centered in the front of the grille) the digital speedometer goes completely away replaced by a warning message about snow on the sensor, and you have no digital gauges (or front-facing ADAS features) until you pull over and wipe it off. Lather, rinse, repeat until snowy conditions end. In the Midwest U.S. where it snows for 6+ months a year this really sucks. Didn’t see that problem coming when I bought mine. They need to allow you to hit an ”ok” option to at least restore your speedo until you stop and can wipe off the sensor in the center of your lower front grille. Bad software decision.

Even though I want the GT trim I’m going to have to go with the GT-line due to the fact that they have an AWD option.

Agree with most, but I find them to be very minor quibbles. Trim levels must differ on region, because in Canada my GT-Line does have memory seats, both driver and front passenger. I did notice when I shopped the car in Canada the GT-Line is considered the higher trim, while in the US it seems the EX is considered higher -- and it's a give-and-take on options between the two trims (such as the wireless Apple Car Play). Agree the media lag is annoying.

Honda is most known for its reliability, however most people own Hondas, to the point where it got boring, if you want to be different and drive a unique car I vote for the Kia.

I tested that but it didn't lock.

It's just to bad they are discounting the K5 & Stinger though now. Both are great cars & while I get the move to electric. I hope we arn't getting something worse in the process. I won't compromise for the sake of being an electric. I did hear they may keep the GT-Line body and trim for the electric EV but that is only rumor. From my experience the K5 does a better job absorbing impacts, bigger road imperfections aren’t as sharply felt as they are in the Sonata for instance. This doesn’t come at the cost of agility either because the K5 is more sure-footed and takes corners more eagerly. Tighter, quicker, and more communicative steering also adds a sense of connection. Something that’s not as apparent in the Sonata even though they use the same new N3 platform & engine choices. The reason i opted in for the GT-Line over the GT. Was that the GT wasn’t available in AWD. A compermise i wasn't willing to exchange. There is nothing wrong with the GT-Line outside a few nitpicks. If given an option I would pick the Stinger over the GT though. Still interesting to see where the market goes on this. :)

Weird that you have no sensors, I do have them both front and back on my kia k5 which is not a premium package at all

From someone who both works at kia and owns a kia, this review has pros and cons. 1 con: Mainly the fact that there is no self-driving feature. Yes, the adaptive cruise control and lane keep assist make it seem there is but there really is no distinct self-driving mode. And since it is not self-driving technically speaking for safety reasons it asks to keep hands on the wheel if the sensors in the steering column feel little to no resistance from the steering wheel (if you just put a single finger on the wheel the message doesn't pop up). The rest of the review I do agree with. I opted to turn off a majority of my sensors due to the inconsistency of them. Pro: Kia did flip the abilities on the 10-inch screen for the apple car play. As far as I know, the cars with the smaller screens such as the base model forte has wireless apple car play. Which I think should be flipped or added to the 10-inch screen. Fun fact for kia owners if you have adaptive cruise control. If you hold your cruise control button on the steering wheel it turns on a self-imposed speed limiter. Also (if you didn't already know), if you hold your traction control button it turns off traction control AND stabilization. Other than that the KIA K5 is a very reliable vehicle especially the 1.6L turbo charged engines they come with.

You don’t have to depend much on all that sensors crap…trust your driver instinct and skills instead. Otherwise, good review!

I don’t think it’s really about being dependent on it, but simply because this if a feature you paid for and you’re not getting sufficient use out of if. That can be very annoying.

I can't decide on a GT line or an EX. Why did you pick the GT line.

@NumberDZ

The main reason was the exterior wolf grey color and the red interior color, you can't get this combination on the EX trim.

Weird how a 2022 ceed sw with everything ticked has more better options then a k5(optima)

the driving sensor is normal thing it happens when blizzard come it obviously gonna cover your car which would make it act up

This video sounds like a good advertisement in my opinion.☺

I’m glad I got the Kia stinger after watching this 🙂

That’s a beautiful car. I have a 2020 Optima SE in Pearl White, and it’s a beauty. Personally for me, I prefer the more minimalistic styling of the Optima over the new K5.

So far I have had 0 problems, it doesn’t consume any oil, before buying this car I red posts that say that Kia cars consume engine oil but I haven’t had that problem with my K5 and I’ve owned it for 1.5 years.

and that is why I have never been convinced having all these sensors will make my life better. As a matter of fact, I thought this is going to make me more annoyed. and I'm the type of person who gets angry over stupid engineering

Every vehicle has its own engineer with mind set of stupid for example Acura MDX the 2020 /2022. One of the Radar sensors stop working and out of sudden the moon roof /sunroof stayed opened and you had to take it to the dealer in order to solve the problem. Guess what chip shortage and lack of parts caused annoying two months. And that is still few years old imagine how that going to be like after 6 to 10 years!!!
