Kia K4 sedan os here! This is the all-new 2025 Kia K4, the company’s new compact sedan model revealed at the 2024 New York International Motor Show.
Replacing the Forte, the Kia K4 falls in line with the company’s new naming structure and introduces the brand’s new design language.

In US, Kia K4 will be available to customers with two petrol combustion engine options.

The entry-level option will be a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter engine with 147 hp and 132 lb-ft of torque, the same power figures as the entry-level 2024 Forte. Power is sent to the front wheels via a CVT gearbox.

Those wanting a bit more poke can pick a turbocharged 1.6-liter option with 190 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque. This is slightly down on power compared to the outgoing 1.6 turbo in the Forte and its 205 hp, but torque stays the same. Turbocharged models also benefit from an 8-speed automatic transmission.

To get the best handling out of the new Kia K4, you’ll have to plump for either the GT-Line or GT-Line Turbo models. In addition to the obligatory GT-Line dress-up bits, which include 18-inch wheels, black glossy accents, and a satin chrome beltline, you also get a multilink rear suspension, which will undoubtedly make a significant difference to handling and comfort.

Interior features include wireless Apple Car Play and Android Auto, while an NFC-enabled smart device such as a phone or a watch can be used to unlock and start the K4. There’s the mandatory “Hey Kia” voice assistant, while attention has been paid to speeding up processing power and adding OTA updates, borrowing tech from the EV9.
