Kia has done it again with the 2021 K5. Following on the fantastic success of the Telluride this K5 is ready to take the midsize sedan segment by storm. Under the hood of the K5 is a 1.6L turbocharged inline-4 that is producing 180HP & mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The K5 is longer, wider, and lower. On the outside you will find the K5's signature "heartbeat" DRL, and provocative styling of the GT-Line pkg. On the inside you will find more interior room because of its longer wheelbase, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and specific GT-Line interior trim. Which 2021 Kia K5 is the BEST to BUY - EX or GT-Line?

For those considering a purchase, you will be glad to know that KIA makes a quality car. I had 60,000 miles on my first Optima and now have 30,000 miles on my second one and I have never had to repair anything. I just change the oil every 5,000 miles and that's it.

Not sure if anyone else has commented this, but I test drove a K5 GT-line the other day and it did have the 10.25 inch screen with navigation, a heated steering wheel, and heated seats. What Joe stated made it seem like this wasn’t an option for the GT-line so I wanted people to know it is an option not just for the EX. But loved the video!

My last Optima was an 07, and it lasted over 230000 miles. Just purchased the K5 EX in glacial white with a “baby blue” interior. Such a nice car. It is actually nicer than my 2016 AUDI A6, I enjoy driving this one better! Keep up the great reviews!
@nurzrachit7133
@nurzrachit7133 Жыл бұрын
Ooh a baby blue interior? That sounds like something I may need to look into 🤣🤣. Listen.. the K5 caught my attention the first time I saw it while we were on Vacation in Panama City Florida. The car was so ridiculously sharp in the Matte Grey I had to go over and investigate. I literally had no clue at all that it was a KIA, but I was pleasantly surprised, yet not surprised at all at the same moment 🤪. I had, by that time, discovered that the South Korean Auto Giant was doing anything but playing. Not sure if you can make it out, but my identification pic is of my 2019 Hyundai Veloster N. Bought the first one sold in Middle Georgia, Macon.. performance edition and a slick Manual which I prefer, and would purchase again if doing it over. I did get a chance to test out the Dual Clutch model when it was released. My Dealership actually called me when they got one in stock to give me first choice on that one as well 😂😂. They knew me well by this time because I was going to their lot on a regular basis to see the cars and I had made it known that I was going to be interested in it's arrival. Personally I knew the manual was my car because I was raised on three pedals, but my wife didn't want to drive it because of the stick and I felt kinda guilty for leaving her out 🤣😜😂😂. I think things happen the way they do for a reason however, and when I told her I was going to consider trading for the Dual Clutch model so she could get a crack at driving it from time to time, she laughed and said she wouldn't drive it because it was too small for her!! Well I was glad that she let me off the Hook because I had gotten a really nice deal with my N and they had added several thousand dollars to the sticker of the one that I tested. The car I bought in April of 2019 had sit on the lot for one month and the day that I realized it existed was day #31, and it was in my garage by close of business. See 5 Star Hyundai in Macon had been drinking their own Kool-aid and after the special "N" sales rep and self described "Genesis and Hyundai N car performance expert" returned from the initial Veloster N release/Training exposition complete with photos of him shaking hands with Albert Bierman and another one of him commanding the Helm of a race blue model while wearing full race suit and a complete helmet! I have noticed that every picture I have ever seen of someone inside of a fully furnished street car wearing racing gear and helmet, it reminds me of the Giant Black Bear at the circus riding a miniature tricycle 🤣😂😂😂😂!!! They just don't fit inside the car properly, and their heads are insanely large!! 😂😂😂

It was This review that made the decision for me to buy the 2022 GT-Line and I got it in the Glacier White Pearl (and for this model year it comes with the larger display, yay). I have to wait until February for delivery though because of low stock and they are NOT negotiating where I live. $1500 above MSRP and a doc fee of $699! Ohhffph. I also did not opt for the premium package as I really have no need for the sunroof living in the south where it is torching in the summer and A/C is on all of the time and you want to be in the shade lol. AND speaking of which, I plan to have the windows tinted for the same reason...ceramic style. Thank you for the great content! Much appreciated :)

Its close to the stinger but I see it being a economy sport sedan. Something that fills a gap most people have, when choosing a economical, fun car. Im more of a v8 boat kind of person, Challengers, Grand Marquis, etc. But this? It just hits in all the right places it seems. Aggressive, good economy, looks like it would be a hell of a lot of fun to drive. Cant wait to get one next year when all the bugs are sorted out!

Hey Joe - I recently bought a K5 GT-Line and love it. I also wanted to say that I love your review videos. You're very good at it. Down to earth, very knowledgeable and funny at the same time. My question for you is I noticed in your review video that you had the tail lights doing a sort of strobe thing (you can see it starting at about the 4:30 mark in this video). How did you get it to do that? It looks so cool! I've been trying to figure it out ever since I saw it and I can't find how to do it. Can you please help me out?
@smurfguy77
@smurfguy77 2 жыл бұрын
I know you made this comment almost a year ago but I can answer your question about the strobe effect on the taillights. The reason they appear to have the strobe effect has to do with the camera they used when filming the segment. When they film the taillights the strobe effect occurs because of the refresh rate of the camera. The refresh rate of your display refers to how many times per second the display is able to draw a new image. This is measured in Hertz (Hz). For example, if your display has a refresh rate of 144Hz, it is refreshing the image 144 times per second. When the video is completed and shown on screen the strobe effect appears. The cameras refresh rate cannot capture the LED lights correctly thus giving the strobe effect. I hope that makes sense. I am a freelance videographer, vídeo/sound editor. I’ve had odd things appear on video because of the refresh rate on my camera. If I film a tv screen I see vertical lines on the tv screen when playing back the video. I’m jealous you have a K5! Do you still love it after having it for almost one year? I have a 2015 Optima EX and I love it! I was in a car accident (not my fault) on 10/20/21. I don’t know if it’s totaled or not. My insurance company won’t know until November 1st 2021. If it’s totaled I’m getting a K5 for,sure.

Lease expires in a year on my Kia Cadenza and I'm looking forward to getting a new car. The K5 in the EX trim is definitely on my list of must drives when time to buy. Hey Joe, do you know if the EX trim is available in the grey exterior color? I need the bells and whistles, primarily the heated and ventilated seats. Had those on my 2014 Hyundai and I miss them. As always, thanks for the great comparison review. On throttle....

It’s odd that the signals are flashing at different rates. I can remember a time when changing out the signal flasher could change the attitude of the whole car. The yellow and blue plastic ones made so many different sounds. The ones that flashed quickly equated to speed, like a Chevelle or Camaro, while the LTD’s and Town Cars equated to sedate dry luxury and flashed verrry slowwwly. I am REALLY GETTING OLD, aren’t I? Thanks for the great video.

The camera makes the LED lights look weird like that. They blink in a solid regular, normal pattern in person. And yes. Like you, I remember cheap cars had loud signal clicks, while premium cars were a soft pleasant click. I have my parents 58 cadillac they bought in 1960. It still has the original flasher and the tick is very pleasant, just as you would expect in a cadillac.

Can't believe it didn't come standard with that. Anyway, awesome ride.

Keith Baker basically it comes down to EPA numbers, every automaker is being pressed to make more and more eco friendly cars which as you’d expect detracts from performance and power, although we’re still supposed to see a Turboed 2.5L K5 this year, which will be an awesome car if they stay true to that promise. With a power plant like that you could expect to see tuned numbers around 390-420 with mods.
