First unveiled in December 2019, KIA is now gearing up for the launch of the upgraded 5th generation K5. Based on the latest images of the KIA K5 Facelift commercial vehicle, we can get a glimpse of the design changes on this model. And now, we have new information regarding the sedan’s release date. According to Thekoreancarblog, the first official images of the upgraded K5 will be unveiled in November.
In the recent spy shots, the upgraded version of the KIA K5 is still heavily disguised from the front to the rear of the car. However, we can still observe differences in the new headlights, taillights, and even the wheels. However, we shouldn’t expect significant design changes like what Hyundai did with the Sonata.
Regarding the powertrain, we don’t anticipate major changes compared to the current version, except for some minor refinements to enhance the engine’s efficiency and potential upgrades to the battery pack to extend the range in electric mode for the K5 hybrid.
As for the interior, based on the recent upgrades seen in other KIA models, we can anticipate the introduction of a new dual curved screen cluster in the upgraded KIA K5. Additionally, it is likely that the KIA K5 Facelift will come with a variety of modern features and equipment.
