The new headlight cluster is reminiscent of the upgraded Sorento model or the upcoming K4 sedan. In addition, the grille has been redesigned to look more elegant and sophisticated. On the sides, there are sharp and modern lines, combined with impressive new wheels.
Currently, there is no illustration of the rear, but it is highly likely that the KIA K8 Facelift will also receive design adjustments at the back, as the test prototype is well-covered.
Regarding the powertrain, we do not expect significant changes compared to the current version, except for some minor refinements to improve engine efficiency and upgrade the battery pack to increase the operating range for the HEV variant.
As for the interior, looking at the recently launched Sorento, it is highly likely that the KIA K8 Facelift will also receive a large curved display, combining a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 12.3-inch infotainment screen, accompanied by the latest safety features and technologies. The new steering wheel is inspired by the EV9.
Kia has not yet announced the official launch date of the K8 Facelift, but it could be around the summer of 2024 in South Korea, while versions for the European and American markets will be introduced by the end of 2024.
