The K5 is better looking from the front. The back of the K8 looks very Audi-ish. Too bad they didnt continue the Stinger. That was Kia's best looking car IMO.
If they didn’t overprice tf out of the stinger it would’ve have met the sales they wanted to meet. They made the base model 4cylinder a $40k car and no one is paying 40k for 4cylinders it was honestly a $25k car and even then it wasn’t reliable enough. The stinger had so much potential
True. This looks like a mix between a G90 and a K900. Very nice and just below the high-end luxury cars with memory seats in the back as well. It's way nicer than anything Kia sells in North America. It's weird how Hyundai and Kia make super nice cars and don't offer them to other countries.
@@redsiifu nobody is paying for $40K for a 4 cylinders. That's the biggest lie I've ever seen. Type R and Type S are both 4 cylinders. Audi S4 4 cylinders and those cars are way more expensive.
@@i.d.6492 True, but I think he meant a 4 cylinder Kia with not much performance. It’s pretty expensive. I have the 6 Cylinder GT and I paid almost 60k. Definitely overpriced. $40K would have been more reasonable.
Kia has always been 10 years ahead on the tech department. My 10 years old Kia Quoris V9 had tech that my 2023 BMW x6, 2021 Volvo XC90, and my 2018 Range Rover Velar (Velar hidden-door handle was dope tho) dont have. Till today still my most advance tech car Ive ever owned.
I had a 2021 and have a 2024 Elentra N line, and the back end is VERY similar. The screen and cluster layout are the same. The brake and gas pedal are the same.
Very nice! Too bad they won't offer it with the Stinger's engine. Love the fact that they designed the digital instrument cluster to allow an analog gauge look. Why many other car manufacturers don't do this is beyond me. The only negative is the way overdone 'diamond' theme....too much.
At first glance it looks like it shares the Telluride's instrument cluster and infotainment display. It certainly has the ability to turn the exterior view 360 deg. and overhead like the Telluride and Hyundai Palisade.
Nice to put some distance between the headlights and the indicators. One some cars like new golfs the indicatorsignal is hard to see on a distance, forcing me to wait more, reducing efficiency in the traffic
Is this another of those sweet-looking cars that's only available in China? I know the K9 (known stateside as the K900) was discontinued in the States...???
I think 🤔 that the K8 Should be the flagship of Kia's full size sedan! What an amazing job Kia has done with it's Automobile's 👍 Embrace and feel the power USA 🇺🇲
Esta hermoso el.diseño..los faros increíbles.. se ven muy bien....y no tiene esos faros de carro llorón como el k3 k5 y k5....excelente el k8..esta perfecto..
Only a min in here, and my initial impression is that the Stinger was/is a much better-looking car from the front and from the side profiles. The grille on the K8 is so over the top, and it does not need to be that way... Now see the rear, and this looks like a K5 from the back. Going back to the Stinger, the rear on that car was different, muscular, elegant.
Kia's new design language is so awesome, and they have really been making some big moves making truly nice cars to be in. I just hope they can fix their reliability problems, and then fix their public image.
@@Quadruple-Vaxxed-Boomer Not a fanboy or owner but I worked on them and the only engines that blew up were the 2.4 Theta 2 (G4KE) engines... And oh you have acknowledge on cars?
Like most Hyundai/Kia design, I'm sure it'll look much better than a Fusion in person. The interior in this is also exceptional. It's far more interesting and less offensive than let's say, an Avalon or a Maxima.
But, you can not even compare the two! Nice car, of course it is a way cheaper as well and on the other hand this is exactly a BMW copy! Seats, cocpit, the whole style! Anyways only AUDI A4 3.0 TDI quattro for me, the best!❤😅
Wow! What a beautiful car inside and out! Of course not for the European market, which really is a pity. I would buy this ten times over mercedes, bmw and audi.
I agree - Ive owned a '21 K5 for 3 years now and it blows away my previous 528i and Accord; Qiet, fast (4 cyl turbo) comfy,, 40mpg on I5 , many positive compliments!
eu viajava na maionese quando morava no Brasil, esses caros.nunca chegarão aí. e seeee chegar é pra.um público da pólvora grande, aqui em Panamá se compra carro de luxo por preço de Kwid aí, claro que digo em poder de compra. brasileiro sofre, aqui em Panamá estou com um cooray da geely carro fenomenal por preço de Onix aí. fora que o luxo é incomparável. ai vcs só tem resto. infelizmente é isso.
It always comes down to the price. The K5 is a great bargain. I love my 2022 Stinger GT-Line.
What a car! Beautiful! And it has V6!
This car is so 🔥

This is a gorgeous car, probably what the Cadeza could of been. Although some of the touches feel like Genesis territory.

Gorgeous car bring it to Canada please
Will never understand why the US doesn't get certain vehicles !!!!
Unfortunately, usa love suvs. But I love sedans a lot. This is a beautiful car😂

This car is freaking beautiful
Dont need gloves for this car though 😂
Beautiful car)
so glad more companies are making the 4 door coupe
Did Kia just look at an A7 and go, yes.
Yes
Один из красивейших и современных кузов, среди Корейских седанов, внушительного размера
Does it have the dct that plagued all cars who ever used them?

All good but why the fake exhaust at the back that kills it for me in new cars.
Insha Alloh maqsad qõydim oldimga shu mashinadan minaman 🤲🤲🤲🕋🕋🕋🕋🤲🤲🕋🕋🕋
Honestly, awesome technology ❤
Looks like it could have been badged as a Genesis. Kia/Hyundai/Genesis are killing it with their designs right now.
Esta hermoso el.diseño..los faros increíbles.. se ven muy bien....y no tiene esos faros de carro llorón como el k3 k5 y k5....excelente el k8..esta perfecto..
I would buy this car as soon as it would arrive at a near by dealership if it was available..
No you wouldn't lol

Wow wow awesome 👍
Available in the US??

When is this coming to the States?
Never
k8 올블랙 커스텀 이쁘더군요

Same here in Europe!
Schönes Auto 👍
i love kia😊
Great car, sucks both kia and hyundai won't sell these awesome cars in the US
Please, give me the name of the track. Muisc Very nice !

nice ride.
good looking car. sad its not available in EU
Carro top. Mas esse nao tem no Brasil
Beautiful car with all of the tech you get in a "higher" brand. But my 04 Forte has 600k miles and still running
Everyone has a preference, but this ride is clean
The front looks like a less attractive Ford Fusion from several years ago, but the rear is distinctively beautiful.
Like most Hyundai/Kia design, I'm sure it'll look much better than a Fusion in person. The interior in this is also exceptional. It's far more interesting and less offensive than let's say, an Avalon or a Maxima.
The rear - Elantra. The tail light bar - Santa fe.😊
@@osuk1 hyundai/kia is literally one company now
If this was a sportback like the A7, I would have a LOT more interest!
But, you can not even compare the two! Nice car, of course it is a way cheaper as well and on the other hand this is exactly a BMW copy! Seats, cocpit, the whole style! Anyways only AUDI A4 3.0 TDI quattro for me, the best!❤😅
It's like Stinger meets Elantra. Quite funny for me since these are my two favorite cars.
Beautiful!
Mükemmel

It's an incredible car. Certainly better than anything Audi has to offer. But don't compare this with the likes of BMW and Mercedes.
I agree - Ive owned a '21 K5 for 3 years now and it blows away my previous 528i and Accord; Qiet, fast (4 cyl turbo) comfy,, 40mpg on I5 , many positive compliments!
