You can option in the cool seats and 360 camera... It's the GT1 package

Add the GT1 package and you get ventilated seats, Bose sound. Surround View cameras, LED projection headlights, power folding mirrors, heated steering wheel, Smart Cruise and about six other upgrades. Of course it's a $4,200 add-on...

Ive had my 2022 gt line since April and man it’s a huge upgrade from my 08 Nissan Altima. Took a little bit to get used to the gear shifts in manual but this car is so fun to drive. I hope to keep this car forever and possibly even pass it down to my kids one day. Can’t wait to see what Kia does with this car in the future

Will, nice comprehensive presentation. Thx question; from an enthusiast perspective, how does the GT compare to the Altima VC turbo? power delivery/acceleration at speed torque fall off turn in and follow thru overall handling fun to drive also, would the GT equal the Honda 2.0? Going forward, all vehicles, could you give a bit more detail regarding steering response? initial turn in response follow thru ratio quickness As I think steering feel is THEE most visceral aspect in everyday driving etc. And maybe throw in a POV sequence of slalom turns? (few, if any ever do this) As always, really enjoy your format and approach to reviews. Very good pace, minimum verbage, direct and to the point, great vocal cadence etc. Of all the top reviewers out there yours seem to be one of the best, most concise. Especially for the "driver". (really cant tolerate some of em, talking too too much and screwing around trying to be funny! no time for that!) Thx much

@MWAclanGaming

The GT is better than the altima because nissan still decided to use that horrible CVT transmission in it. GT is the best bang for your buck but isn't the friendliest car to tune if your into that. The honda accord 2.0t is an insanely great power house with a fast 10 speed transmission. Literally the same engine as the honda civic Type R expected it has a smaller turbo but you could buy the actual Type R turbo from the actual manufacturer which is Direct bolt on with a few more mods and a tune, your push mid to high 400+whp.

Why does KIA remove options for the higher end vehicles?? No ventilated seats or wireless CarPlay/Android Auto??? If you buy a base model KIA you get wireless, and with a higher end vehicle you're stuck with USB

I just wish it had ambient lighting like the n line

how is the road noise?
