Is the 2022 Kia K5 EX a BETTER midsize sedan than a Honda Accord?

Agreed. My gf has the 21 Honda and my car is better haha. I do like the adaptive dampers/suspension that the Accord has though.

Really in my opinion the only thing holding this thing behind is the gauge display. I know that most of it competitors don’t offer it either but an all digital cluster would make this car feel more luxurious and then considering nowadays that every car is loaded up with technology I think now it’s become a norm instead of an option.

[@FateofDeath_]

Weird they went with the great headlight LED design then threw up all of the rear turn signals with ugly incandescent no style turn signals, ruined the back for me, gauge cluster could be a full screen to compete with other cars in the class, center screen would need to be bigger and less of a big border around it, hopefully they added ambient lighting, my 2019 Jetta SEL Premium has all of this maybe in the next year or 2 Kia will step it up

I test drove the K5 a year ago and really liked it, but the local Kia dealer was tacking on $3,000 markup on it and wouldn't budge. I checked every Kia dealer in Northern California and if they had one in stock (most didn't) it was also marked up. They simply wouldn't deal - they were selling too fast. Most frustrating car purchase journey I've ever had. Toyota and Honda dealers were doing the same to the Accord and Camry. Ended up getting a Subaru Legacy because the dealer would actually knock $2,000 off MSRP. That said I kind of wished I'd bit the bullet and got the K5. They look so nice.

I have Kia Optima 2012 with 130k miles. As a second owner I didn't invest even 2k including oil change since 2016 when I bought it with 65k/m on it, but I can feel it's breaking down a little bit this year and it does need tune up but again with 1500$ I can completely fix everything and keep rolling! Also I need to mention that KIA offers 5Y/60K/M bumper to bumper warranty and 10Y/100K/M on power train which Honda doesn't! After 100k miles it is what it is, you'll get the money worth for sure but one thing to mention is that you can get more money on used Honda then on KIA but then it's more expensive as well

Currently in the process of modding my sorento but atm k5 behind the stinger has allot of mod's which add visually.

[@joebrito2066]

Thank you Lori and Joe for this video! This reminds me a 1990s Oldsmobile Cutlass and the 2001-03 Mitsubishi Galant good looking car. I hope Kia adds this interior to the Stinger and brings the K8, and K9 to the US.

You shouldn’t trust any Kia . I have a 2013 optima and my mom has a 2020 Sorento,sister 2017 Sorento. There’s been way too many recalls. My engine actually blew at 73k miles a month and a half ago,asked my sister about it and she told me they put another one in her Sorento last year . Far as my moms car I noticed it said it needed maintenance after however so miles and she takes it the next day. Gets the car back and it still says it needs maintenance . I don’t care how many warranties they have or anything else. Two weeks ago I’m at the dealer picking my car up they had to put a new engine in for free for that blown engine. (Btw had to rent a car at my own expense). I’m hearing a customer that bought a BRAND NEW KIA was having problems and the only reason I overheard it was because it was getting heated about a rental being provided because the other dealer just gave them one and they where only at this dealer because it’s closer to their house. With the current dealer saying they had to get the car diagnosed first before they do anything. So now there out of a car/time/money with no immediate replacement because a company that makes defective products. (It’s also 4 plus months before I even see reimbursement money for the rental I paid for, FOR NOTHING THAT’S MY FAULT. - California

I have this model (same color and all) and the only thing dislike is The exhaust pipes (should of had the GT model) & not having a full digital dashboard. With that being said, I my car.

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

I really hate the fake exhausts on the Kia K5. I also saw fake exhausts in the outgoing Kia Sportage GT Line, but they were worse.

[@RaitisRides]

I feel your pain.

[@entheguevara]

What's the full price for that kia, please, I can't decide between kia or Toyota camry

[@LuisR-23]

So which version should I purchase the ex or the gt line?

[@digitaldoc100]

Want that 8 spd transmission in the Kona and Sportage with the 1.6T option.
