I drove one of these recently. It's surprisingly quick and fun to drive. It's good for younger adults or a daily driver for work. I got a lot of curious looks and compliments. Many tech and safety features are included at an affordable price. I may consider buying a Kia just for the tech and safety features. Most other brands try to nickel and dime you on all the tech.
I watched the Korean review on this and it's really nice for the price. The warranty is also something that has to be noted as Kia has an outstanding warranty and for people that get a 48 or 60 month loan the vehicle is covered under warranty the entire time. That's an added value worth about $1500 on this car (2 years and 24k miles longer warranty coverage than other brands).
@@dwaynebrietzke I never heard about that. My 4th Kia vehicle and zero problems. Kia did have problems 10 years ago and the only problem of late was the key issue and thefts on older models. Every brand has problems and recalls at some point.
There's always one who wants to throw salt at Korean brands. My 2017 Elantra is still going strong. It is just a perception that people can't shake. But act in denial when you bring up Toyota and Honda current reliability status.
@@richardmichael59 even toyota and honda have recalls and reliability issues these days. Lead-foot uncle has a 2016-17-ish turbo sonata with 150k+ miles and they've never had a single issue with it. 🤷♂
@@anaveragehuman2937 that Sonata is worth around 1k right now if that. For the price better off with a Corolla. Exact same price better parts and better quality same with a Mazda 3.
@@TheSjuris Autotrader shows listings within 200 miles of me for $7-8K. Also, Sonata is a midsize, corolla and mazda 3 are compact. Why make that comparison?
@ a similar Camry would still be more. An Elantra with 159k is worth nothing this comes from experience. Both Mazda 3 And Corolla are better made and more importantly have more power for the same price as a K4.
I can't wait to upgrade for the GT-Line model! It is the most stylish futuristic proof compact sedan I have ever seen besides the Elantra. Thank you, KIA, for taking innovation to a whole other level!
Hi Guys !!, First of all you're looking good in this K4 and enjoy your stay in Texas. The price and the look sounds very satisfy, Thank You and have a great day.
@@Rob-qu3xg I had a Kia Cee'D wagon in Iceland as a rental several years ago. Such a great, practical format of vehicle, we even slept in the back on several nights. Even though I know we won't get it, I would love to have a compact wagon in North America!
I've had one (GT Line) for a month. Traded in my 2015 Avalon Limited. Two things I wish it had, sunglass holder and at least one regular USB port that connects to the infotainment system. Only after I started watching UA-cam videos did I find out this was meant for the "younger" generation (I'm 67).
I just did an under $25K sedan comparison, and think you made a huge mistake by not including the Subaru Legacy. The Honda is a small engine with a turbo, which spells disaster by demanding too much from a small engine. The Corolla was noisy and the performance weak, but great driver visibility. The Mazda-3 with the tradition transmission and large engine had performance, but poor driver visibility and narrow seats. The Subaru Legacy, with AWD, had an excellent interior with performance. It's a toss up between the KIA K4 and Subaru Legacy. Tough choice!
I definitely would've liked to have seen the hybrid version. I don't get why anyone would market a car without that option today. We've had the Hyundai Elantra in our household for 2 years and it was very likable.
Oh so excited to see the Kia model finally move to the Elantra (Tucson) platform! I tell yeah, I just happen to (GM dealer sent me to them) get an Elantra and the darn thing drove very well I thought. Nice and big like the Jetta and new Civic - but even then - it was like 20% less expensive and arguable better in some ways (iVT right). The Elantra was taken to market apparently a couple years ahead of plan - but the Tucson platforms was showing itself to be excellent and the previous model (it was a good car really but people did not like the look) was not doing well at all. So my Elantra - the back seat kind of told me - this has been shot to market before they had time to kind of jewelry it up nicely - so just focus on the driver experience. But the K4 - what a delay - but they just show what they were envisioning for the Elantra but just did not have time for the components to gel eh. Love the execution of that two-spoke wheel (not easy).

Have a 2020 Kia Forte that has the same powertrain and transmission as that K4 . they need to update that in the basic model....But I agree the re-done exterior gives it a different look.
I love A to B cars. Especially the bottom trim levels. I prefer to invest the difference and let that money compound for my next entry level car purchase (in cash).
A lot of "more mature" drivers are going to like this car because of its price, the comfort, the safety features for the price, etc. Well, that explains why I bought it!
I applaud Kia for designing out of the box. I do prefer the hatchback K4 over the sedan. I think it looks more cohesive. I'm not sure if NA is even getting a hatchback model. Thanks for the review.😊
Test drove one this week. The one thing that I did not Ike was the digital dash. What you see is what you get; could not change the look of it. That wing design just did not do it for me.
Non turbo model price point seems to be in-line with Corolla for comparable equipment....with reliability and resale factored in the choice is made easy.
I have a 2020 Forte 6 speed manual, a rare model. Fuel economy is very impressive, with the onboard fuel economy meter routinely showing as good as 4.5L/100km on my morning commute to work. Same engine as this in a lighter package and it is extremely under powered. You have to keep the revs up for what I would consider average acceleration. I have also experienced a plethora of mechanical issues, especially related to the suspension.
I wish Kia would bring back manual transmission for a vehicle like that. Since they are also bringing a hatchback later on, that combination would be hard to resist.
I like the general look of it. Not a fan though of the backseat door handles. So does the regular GT-Line in the US have the turbo 1.6, or just the GT-Line Turbo? And I agree with the other commenters, I want a hybrid version.
Don't worry, a year ago they said the hatchback would be in the U.S. early this fall and it's December and not even a single word about it so it's not here yet either. That's the only one I would have ever considered.
Love the show , don’t even own a car , can’t drive - but have an alter built for you two to promote cult of the personality!.. I’ll send photos .. But if I was to trade in my 2003 Buick regal with 379 thousand miles.. What do you think of the 2028 Bentley Plug In hybrid car, is it reliable, what colour should I get , do you think the resale value would be higher??.. 1-2-3:)
Reminds me of some of the very odd-looking Datsuns of the 1970s. Whilst some may find Hyundai or kia products to be very futuristic looking, I suspect they will not age well at all whereas in my opinion, a Honda Civic is a much classier looking vehicle.
2025 Civic's base engine has 150HP, 8 less than the previous years' base engine. Previous LX/Sport engine was the classic K20C2, but the new one is a modified version of the hybrid engine (K20C9 or whatever, but it really isn't a K-series engine). New one can run in Atkinson cycle and is direct injection only, whereas the previous engine was port injection only.
Great reviews as always. Another alternative is a 2025 Mazda 3 GX comes standard with heated front seats and a 2.5-liter 6-speed auto for a base price of $24,900.
@Tbcp1313 An average person doesn't care about driving dynamics. They care about which car has the latest technology, more space, and better value for the money. The K4 already has the Gen Z crowd attention. Mazda 3 is for a mature target audience. And it's nothing wrong with that. I just know space is a big thing now. Especially in the U.S. If Mazda made the Mazda 3 a Mazda 6 size in interior dimensions, then it will stand a chance to stay more competitive. Not only has more power, but it can be spacious as well. It's time for a redesign anyway. Hopefully, it will be 2026 model year. Mazda has to bring its A game.
Looking more at the pricing in Canada - you know - if pricing includes apples to apples - the Elantra is quite a bit less expensive I think. Nothing wrong with it either - and I like that they dropped largely the analog (simulated) gauges in it for mostly a digital display (easier to read - mine took a bit to get used to - perhaps with kph so many numbers squeezed in there). K4 is a nicer execution with that extra time in there - but humm Elantra you get to keep more money in your pocket eh.
well hot dang, a budget minded compact vehicle that has rear vents on all trims and can be optioned to included ventilated seats and other niceties. you paying attention Honda??
The price of the K4 is interesting. Its basically the same price of a Kia Soul and the lower trims of the Kia Seltos. The Soul and Seltos would have more clearance, something we need in Winter.
Saw a few of these last Sunday on the dealer lot. Just didn't like the styling or the interior when I saw it in person. It just looked cheap. Was hoping the gt might be my next car but I'll look again when it comes out.
I think the fuel economy listed for the Turbo is incorrect, that's for the 2.0L EX trim (which is a bit heavier than the LX trim). I don't think Kia has published the numbers for the Turbo yet.
Nice design, reminds me of the Honda Crosstour a bit, but what's with the black cladding wheel arches? "I don't weant my car to get scratched so now it just looks bad all of the time"
Wait so in Canada the K4 gets full climate control buttons but in the US it looks like we only get fan speed and temperature? What gives? Is it something to do with the lack of dual zone temperature?
Hi im from United Kingdom 🇬🇧, absolutely love this new K4 and does anyone know if this car is coming to UK/Europe? I would love to buy one, i drive a 2022 Kia Proceed GT,
Damnnn wish I got this maybe the Qt and not a 2024 Sentra lol. This has so much more better stuff 😍😮💨. You can get the fully loaded one and not the SV Sentra for the price for the GT-line. Wait why not the comparison with the Sentra? New remodel Sentra coming 2026?
Id chose the honda ot toyoyta simple for reliability. Hyundai Kia aslo make such drastic changes so often that by the time you buy a new one itnalready looks old after 2 -4 years.
Hyundai had a good moment in the year 2018/19 with their designs. That's my favorite version of the Tucson, Santa Fe, Elantra and Accent. Mainly because they were 'normal' looking.
@@davidjymNormal is boring. This is more edgy and fun with the new design language. I want to look back at my car and say, "Damn, that's all me!" The new K4 definitely delivers that excitement.
The cost cutting and declining contenting has gotten out of control. A few years ago, only the barest of bare bones trims wouldn’t have a rear center armrest. Lately, you have to upgrade to very top of the line trim to get the rear armrest. Armrests are basic features. They are not opulent luxury features.
I just looked at this yesterday because of the incentives. I really wanted to like it because it's way under budget. But I can't get past the rear passenger window, it's HIDEOUS
Another incredible video! Seeing all these exotic cars makes it tempting to dream big. But when it comes to buying one, getting a solid financial plan in place first is so important. For anyone seriously considering an exotic car, or any high-end investment, having a reliable financial advisor can make all the difference. I’ve been working with an incredible advisor, Stephanie Janis Stiefel, for years, and she’s been amazing at helping people make smart financial moves. Plus, she’s got a great track record online, so she’s easy to find if you’re interested. Buying a car like this is a big step, so make sure you’ve got someone in your corner!
Completely agree with you! Stephanie Janis Stiefel helped me save up and invest smartly before I bought my first Porsche. She’s great at helping you see the bigger picture so you’re not just buying on impulse. It’s a game-changer
This is exactly what I need. I’ve been thinking about getting a McLaren, but I know it’s a huge investment. Does she help with budgeting out all the other costs involved too, like maintenance and insurance?
@@ArataHaru-n1tshe definitely does! I’ve worked with her for about three years, and she’s super thorough. She went through every detail with me when I was buying my Lamborghini, maintenance, insurance, even potential resale value. I wouldn’t have been able to make such a smart choice without her.
@@ArataHaru-n1tI’m in the same boat as you. I’ve always wanted a Ferrari, but I want to make sure it’s the right move financially. I’ll definitely look her up. Thanks for the tip
@@TreviMounirWell her name is 'STEPHANIE JANIS STIEFEL'. Just research the name. You'd find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Really appreciate that you tested the base version instead of the top trim.
I saw a K4 in the Kia showroom the other day. It looks great in blue.

Exactly. That long back panel behind the window looks like it was stuck on as an afterthought.
Yeah it’s an ugly ass car
The hatchback looks better.
Needs to be a hatchback
With the longer looking wheelbase, it could also make for a great wagon!

Yes but Americans generally don't buy Hatchbacks, hence the lack of them in the marketplace.

I just looked at this yesterday because of the incentives. I really wanted to like it because it's way under budget. But I can't get past the rear passenger window, it's HIDEOUS
K4 has similarities on side veiw of the looks like the 2024 honda accord on the side view
That’s $24,000 at my local Kia dealer.. smoking deal…!! Ex
....That steering wheel reminds me of a Rover SD1....thought it's a Elantra under it.
Nice car but in five years will it be ready for the knacker?
Those three headrests on the back seat look distracting.
No, they don't.
That screen is bigger than lucid airs lol
Another incredible video! Seeing all these exotic cars makes it tempting to dream big. But when it comes to buying one, getting a solid financial plan in place first is so important. For anyone seriously considering an exotic car, or any high-end investment, having a reliable financial advisor can make all the difference. I’ve been working with an incredible advisor, Stephanie Janis Stiefel, for years, and she’s been amazing at helping people make smart financial moves. Plus, she’s got a great track record online, so she’s easy to find if you’re interested. Buying a car like this is a big step, so make sure you’ve got someone in your corner!
Completely agree with you! Stephanie Janis Stiefel helped me save up and invest smartly before I bought my first Porsche. She’s great at helping you see the bigger picture so you’re not just buying on impulse. It’s a game-changer
This is exactly what I need. I’ve been thinking about getting a McLaren, but I know it’s a huge investment. Does she help with budgeting out all the other costs involved too, like maintenance and insurance?
@@ArataHaru-n1tshe definitely does! I’ve worked with her for about three years, and she’s super thorough. She went through every detail with me when I was buying my Lamborghini, maintenance, insurance, even potential resale value. I wouldn’t have been able to make such a smart choice without her.
@@ArataHaru-n1tI’m in the same boat as you. I’ve always wanted a Ferrari, but I want to make sure it’s the right move financially. I’ll definitely look her up. Thanks for the tip
@@TreviMounirWell her name is 'STEPHANIE JANIS STIEFEL'. Just research the name. You'd find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Bring back the K5.
? I think you are confused. This is not a K5 replacement. The K5 is also available. This replaces the Forte.
@@Calebflying2025 He's a Canadian. They axed the K5 in their market. So the K4 is their K5 now.
