Car A

Kia K5 GT-LINE AWD

AWD traction, a 290-hp turbo engine, and a 7.0 s 0–100 km/h sprint make the K5 GT-LINE AWD appealing to drivers who want confident performance with five-seat practicality. A 424 L trunk, moderate efficiency for its class, and a 29,500 price point add up to good value for road trips and family use.
