What to know before buying a used Kia K5

The Kia K5 has remained on one generation since its 2021 launch, with a mid-cycle refresh for 2025 that introduced a new 2.5-liter base engine, updated styling, and a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen across all trims. Models from 2021 through 2024 use a 1.6-liter turbo as the base engine, while the GT has always used the 2.5-liter turbo. All-wheel drive is available only on the GT-Line trim, so confirm drivetrain before purchasing. Kia also backs the K5 with a 10-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty for original owners, so check remaining coverage when shopping used.

At EchoPark, every listing includes a vehicle history report so you can review the sedan's background before purchasing.
