Rice grains say car

I remember when I was in college, a friend who was a few years older bought a very cool-looking joint venture car with the help of his family, with a long body, double exhaust pipes, and a white coupe appearance, and I was impressed by that new car, which was the Kia K5.

At that time, the Kia K5 was not cheap, and it was basically positioned as a 20-250,000 joint venture car. Although the price was not cheap at that time, at least the configuration was richer than the Volkswagen Passat and Magotan, the fuel consumption was lower (the body weight was often lighter, so it was fuel-efficient), and the appearance was easier to impress young users. At that time, the Passat, Magotan, including the Camry did give people a feeling of old-fashionedness, and the emergence of K5 gave young users one more choice.

The current Kia K5 has been reduced to a marginal model, and the last facelift was fixed in 2021, and the manufacturer has not upgraded it in recent years, which also shows that the manufacturer is not very optimistic about Kia K5, and the price of the new car has fallen to more than 120,000.

The current Kia K5 has two powertrains, one is a 1.5T plus seven-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, and the other is a 2.0T+8-speed automatic manual transmission. The 2.0T has strong power performance, but the fuel consumption is high, with an average fuel consumption of 10L per 100 kilometers. The 1.5T engine has better ride comfort, but the design of the dry dual-clutch does not reassure Chinese consumers, especially after long-term use. In addition, both 1.5T and 2.0T have particle trap problems, and long-term short-distance driving is not very suitable.

The exterior design is still young and fashionable, with a white appearance, four chrome exhaust pipes, a black panoramic sunroof, and smooth body lines, I think this is still the dream car of some young users, although this part of the user group has become less and less. In terms of body data, the length, width and height of the Kia K5 are 4980/1860/1445mm, and the wheelbase is 2900mm, which is the data of a standard B-segment car.

In addition to the 23.6-inch through-type large screen, the knob-style shift mechanism, leather steering wheel, multi-functional leather seats are all available, and the manufacturer also matches five airbags. If you consider the mid-to-high-spec models, in addition to the seats, even the steering wheel can also be heated remotely, which is extremely practical in the cold north.

In addition, the middle and high configuration models are also equipped with L2 level intelligent assisted driving system, this set of applications is very easy in long-distance running, you can set the following distance in front of the car, respectively, there are 50m, 100m, 150m, 200m these four gears, can be flexibly switched, braking and acceleration step by step, and will not be rigid.

One thing to say, this Kia K5 is no longer the mainstream at the moment, and the price has fallen again and again. But the problem is that although the starting price of the new car is only more than 120,000, the new car corresponding to this price is matched with a seven-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, and with a similar budget, we can buy a new Hyundai Sonata, which is equipped with 8AT as standard. If you had to choose a Korean B-segment car, what would you choose?
