Trim-by-Trim Overview of the 2025 Kia K5

LXS FWD: Entry-level yet far from basic, LXS FWD features a 2.5L 4-Cylinder engine producing 191 horsepower and 181 lb.-ft. of torque. It comes with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Highlights include 16-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen display. Safety tech includes Forward Collision Avoidance Assist and Lane Keeping Assist. Fuel economy reaches 27 MPG city and 37 MPG highway.

GT-Line FWD: Sport-inspired GT-Line FWD adds bolder styling with 18-inch alloy wheels, LED fog lights, and a sport grille. Interior upgrades include SynTex seating and a 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation. Wireless charging and a sport steering wheel come standard. It retains the same 1.6L turbo engine as the LXS trim. Fuel economy clocks in at 27 MPG city and 37 MPG highway.

GT-Line AWD: GT-Line AWD offers identical features to the FWD version but adds all-weather capability. Torque-vectoring all-wheel drive boosts traction on slippery roads. Despite AWD, the trim maintains strong efficiency—25 MPG city and 33 MPG highway. Sporty styling and advanced driver assistance systems ensure daily confidence and style.

GT: Performance peaks in the GT trim. A 2.5L turbocharged engine unleashes 290 horsepower and 311 lb.-ft. of torque. It features a quick-shifting 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Larger 19-inch wheels, quad-tip exhaust, and sport-tuned suspension separate the GT from the rest. Inside, drivers enjoy GT sport seats and alloy pedals.

EX: Luxury blends with practicality in the EX-trim. Ventilated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a panoramic sunroof elevate daily comfort. It also includes rear parking sensors and a power front passenger seat. Though powered by the same 2.5L 4-Cylinder engine, EX focuses more on convenience. Estimated efficiency stands at 27 MPG city and 36 MPG highway.
