Reasons To Drive A Kia K5

Strong Base Powertrain

Men, a 1.6-liter engine block with a single turbocharger is standard under the hood of the Kia K5. It generates up to 180 net horsepower at 5,500 RPM! You will also get up to 195 pound-feet of peak torque at 1,500 RPM from this 4-cylinder powertrain that runs on the Gasoline Direct Injection technology. Every cylinder includes four total DOHC valves for the best performance. The GDI powerplant achieves good gas mileage. Why? Men, it's thanks to the Idle Stop and Go (ISG) technology that temporarily halts combustion cycles! According to EPA estimates, this Kia offers up to 38 MPG on the highway and 29 MPG in the city. You can turn on the ECO Mode or Smart Mode to optimize gas mileage.

After filling the 14.8-gallon fuel tank with unleaded gas, you can drive for roughly 562 miles without another stop at the gas station! The strong base powertrain transfers power to an 8-speed automatic transmission system. Great! The auto gearbox is tuned for sporty performance. It works well with a front-wheel drive or the optional all-wheel drive. Men, if you want to push the limits of the 1.6-L turbo engine, turn on the Sport+ Mode with Launch Control!
