Does the ALL NEW 2021 Kia K5 disappoint?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Kia has done it again with the 2021 K5. Following on the success of the Telluride they decided to redesign the Optima and change the name. Under the hood of the K5 is a 1.6L turbocharged inline-4 that is producing 180HP & mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The K5 is longer, wider, and lower. On the outside you will find the K5's signature "heartbeat" DRL, and provocative styling. On the inside you will find more interior room because of its longer wheelbase, wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto. Does the ALL NEW 2021 Kia K5 disappoint?

    Thank you for reviewing a more popular trim level, not just the "loaded" top trim. Always nice to see how these lower trims are equipped, as that is what most folks can afford and where the value lies in this type of car. Bravo

Manual & absolutely LOVED it. So much, that a couple yrs later & w/ intro of... traded it in for the new 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe. Loved that even more & never ha any issues w/ either. Lots of options, reliable, inexpensive, new & looked good.. they were both great cars for different reasons. This one above, wow. Agree w/ ya, would give either a shot & would be happy driving either. :) Stay safe & be well.

    Yes it is at dealerships and i am very disappointed. It makes me appreciate the 3rd and 4th generation Optima. The K5 is a disappointment. They always say pictures can be deceiving, which is a true statement with the K5. It is really missing that WOW turn heads factor in it. They have cut a lot of exterior cost of the vehicle. I recently saw the EX version and it doesn't compare to the 20 Optima Ex version at all. It has no expose tips, turn signal indicators on the mirror, no fog lights, lacking reasonable amount of chrome finish, and the fuel door is now push no button.....smh. Hopefully, the GT version will be nicely equipped. I let you decide for yourself and you tell me what you think.

    Man, I absolutely love Hyundai / Kia / Genesis. I've owned 2 Kia's and a Hyundai all from 2006+ and genuinely enjoyed every single one of them. My last daily was a 2009 Spectra5 SX and even being a decade old it was great. Sport tuned suspension handled like a champ. It unfortunately recently had issues that didn't make sense fixing investment wise so I ended up getting an MK7 Jetta and although I love the Jetta the handling on the Kia was so much more dynamic and engaging. The Jetta is currently getting it's yearly ceramic coating / rustproof done and the dealer lent me a 2020 Optima LXS and it's great for the price. Just such a great deal. Once I'm done with the loan on the Jetta my next car will definently be another H / K / G. I was gonna go with a Forte GT but there were no GT2 package examples and I needed a car quick.

    Short answer, No. I absolutely love this redesign!!! They hot a lot of great points with the redesign here and look....hydraulic struts!!!! On a base trim...Kia!!! Bruh... they out here showing up all other companies that stay doing prop rods!!! That interior is fire!!! Wish we got a few more of the Korea spec goodies though🤨🤨🤨 but overall great package!!! No CVT!!! Driiiive moooodes??!!! AWD optional!!! And look at that truuuunk!!! Kinda feel like it should've been made a lift back though, especially with that tasteful chrome trim🤨🤨🧐🤔🤔🤔Maaaaaaaaan.... They coming for everybody!!! Excellent review here Joe!!! 👍🏼❤🚗💨💨💨💨
