Kia Sedan Lineup

2026 Kia K5 sedan car
 

From the Kia LXS to the Kia GT-Line, several of your favorite Kia sedan trims are returning for the model year. In this overview of the latest Kia sedan lineup, we at Hendrick Kia of Cary will get you up to speed on what you need to know about the most current Kia sedan models to hit Raleigh streets. Afterward, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us! 

The Kia Sedan Lineup

There are two major updates to the current lineup of Kia sedan models. First, the Kia Forte, which has been in production since it debuted in 2009, will no longer be manufactured after the 2024 model year. While fans of the Forte will undoubtedly be saddened to wave goodbye, they needn’t be upset for too long, because Kia has released a brand-new nameplate to replace the Forte: the new Kia K4.

The All-New Kia K4

The K4 is the latest Kia compact car to grace the sedan lineup. As was the case for the outgoing Kia Forte, trims such as the Kia LXS and Kia GT-Line are also available under the K4 nameplate. See below for a full list of available Kia K4 trims and a few feature highlights for each: 

LX

  • 2.0L 4-cylinder engine
  • 12.3-inch touchscreen display
  • Wireless Apple Carplay® and Android Auto™ 
  • Lane Keeping and Following technology

LXS

  • Blind-spot detection technology
  • 60/40 split-folding rear seat
  • Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist
  • Drive Mode Select System

EX

  • Wireless phone charger
  • Premium cloth seat trim
  • Exterior chrome accents

GT-Line

GT-Line Turbo

  • 1.6L 4-cylinder Turbocharged engine

Do you want to experience this latest Kia compact car in action? Of course, you do. Visit our dealership in Cary to test drive one for yourself! 

The Kia K5

With the Kia ceasing production of the Forte after the 2024 model year, the Kia K5 is the last Kia sedan we’ll touch on in this overview. As a mid-size sport sedan, the K5 is larger than the Kia compact car we previously explored, but it also features a Kia GT-line trim in its lineup. Unlike the K4 GT-Line trim however, the GT-Line under the K5 nameplate can be configured with an all-wheel drive system, making for a sportier ride and more thrilling driving experience in Durham.

Starting with the entry-level LXS trim, five Kia K5 trims are available for purchase during the model year. Check them out below, along with some feature highlights: 

LXS FWD

  • 2.5L 4-cylinder engine
  • 8-speed automatic transmission
  • 12.3-inch touchscreen display w/ Kia Connect & SiriusXM® Satellite Radio
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ 

GT-Line FWD

  • GT-Line body styling
  • 18-inch Alloy Wheels, Gloss Black and Machined Finish
  • GT-Line leather-wrapped flat-bottom Sport Steering Wheel
  • SynTex seat trim

GT-Line AWD

  • All-wheel drive (AWD)
  • Drive Mode Select w/ Snow Mode
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Available GT-Line AWD Premium Package

GT

  • 2.5L 4-cylinder turbocharged engine
  • 8-speed dual-clutch auto transmission
  • Sport-tuned suspension
  • Neon Green GT brake calipers

EX 

  • 12.3-inch dual panoramic displays
