The K5 GT-Line, especially with AWD, is a strongly appealing midsize sedan. Internet fan boys will immediately want the K5 GT with its stronger 2.5L turbo engine and DCT but apart from the fact that most won't be able to afford either one they should be careful what they wish for. The biggest weakness of both the K5 GT and the Sonata N-Line is the absence of AWD or even a limited slip differential (either mechanical or electronic) in a vehicle with about 300 HP and over 300 ft lbs of torque. (Even a FWD GTI with far less power has an LSD.) What that means is that the power of the larger engine is difficult to access without wheel hop and torque steer. Some may think those "features" are essential to "performance" but experienced "enthusiasts" know better. All in all, the GT-Line with substantial cost savings and the capacity to access the full power of the 1.6L turbo makes a lot of sense.

No MT in the K5 future, I'm afraid. Midsize sedans are already stagnant in terms of sales and adding a third pedal wouldn't help. But the absence of any sort of LSD (electronic or manual) in the K5 GT is its major weakness. Perhaps KIA will see the error of their ways on that score. As far as a V6 is concerned, that's a non-starter. Period. A naturally aspirated would only add weight and no performance advantage compared to the 2.5L turbo 4 and a turbo version of a V6 wouldn't come close to justifying its cost in terms of sales.

I've been a proud owner of the Kia K5 GT-Line AWD sedan for almost a year. But let me tell y'all. Save yourself the money and don't bother with opting for the premium package that comes with the autostart. 1.) When you use the autostart, there is no visual indication that the car actually started (beyond a quick flash of the DRL - if you happen to catch it and even then there's no guarantee that it actually started because it's very finicky.) 2.) The car will only run for exactly 10 minutes and at a maximum temp of just 72F. There is no way to change this. Obviously those of us who live in Northern, wintry climates know that this is a joke if you're expecting to defrost your car and have it warm and toasty for you when you go out. The only way around this is the old way. Put on your sweats and coat and go out and start the car manually! I don't know what Kia was thinking with this but the autostart feature as it stands right now is a total fail. Instead, go for a third party autostart option that will probably be a LOT cheaper than the package that provides this feature from Kia. I wish I had done my homework ahead of time.

Kia has grown up a lot but i still just cant get myself to buy one. Its a Kia. They offer a lot for the money but for some reason i still would not feel confident in one. A car is supposed to make you feel confident, powerful on the road, excited, most of all happy. I do not see that with Kia yet. They are getting close though. For me i would rather buy a Toyota or a Honda over a Kia anyday. I hear build quality is a concern. I was really considering a 2022 Kia GT that makes 293 horse power but instead i got a 2.0 Honda Accord Sport 2022. The car is absolutely incredible.

Great car and this is the best color combo! Kia did a nicer job with the maroon seats than Mazda did with their carbon edition...the GT logo and accents look great. This may be picky, but the old KIA logo now looks dated! I would definitely want to change it. I sat in this car and like it a lot. Accord and Camry are great, but this sits up higher which I strongly prefer....agree totally with the "better looker"....Joe, so happy for you and the boss now that you are over 600K subscribers!
