many people may not have noticed that the current kia k5 model was officially launched in august 2021. at that time, the new car was priced from 162,800 yuan, and its benchmark was also joint venture brand mid-size sedans such as honda accord, toyota camry, and buick regal.

it is a bit surprising that kia has launched the new 2025 kia k5 in september. after all, the last new kia k5 was launched three years ago. is it trying to win back the respect and recognition of the chinese people?

the arrival of the new kia k5 first shows a certain sincerity in terms of price.

how to say it? because the official directly set the starting price of the 2025 kia k5 at 139,800 yuan. you know, the previous kia k5's lowest-equipped model was sold at 162,800 yuan, but now it only starts at 139,800 yuan, which means that the manufacturer has directly reduced the price by 23,000 yuan. doesn't this show a certain degree of sincerity?

in addition to the official price reduction, the new kia k5 has also been upgraded in terms of intelligence, safety and comfort configuration, and some configurations exclusive to the current top-end models have been transferred to other models. the specific configuration transfer is as follows:

compared with the old model, the 2025 kia k5 1.5t luxury edition adds three comfort configurations: 8-way adjustment of the driver's electric seat, smart key/one-button start, and trunk sensor opening;

compared with the old model, the 2025 kia k5 1.5t premium edition not only strengthens the forward collision avoidance assist (fca), but also adds panoramic image (svm), side rear image (bvm), navigation-based smart cruise control (nscc), highway driving assist (hda), front seat heating, 12-way electric adjustment of the driver's seat (including 4-way lumbar support adjustment), 4-way adjustment of the co-pilot electric seat, jbl luxury audio (7 speakers) and other configurations.

3. compared with the old model, the 2025 kia k5 2.0t premium edition has further upgraded the leather seats and front seat ventilation functions on the basis of the new configuration of the 1.5t premium edition.

4. compared with the old model, the 2025 kia k5 2.0t flagship model has upgraded all the optional configurations of the old model, such as heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, electric adjustable front passenger seat, driver's knee airbag, rear advanced central armrest, metal accelerator and brake pedals, metal welcome pedal, 64-color ambient light, 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels, etc., to standard configuration.

after seeing the configuration upgrades of the above models, i wonder if you feel the sincerity of the new kia k5 this time? i think that the manufacturer's ability to offer substantial discounts and sincerity on the new models is a reflection of its desire to really sell the car well. after all, only by thinking about what users think and listening carefully to their opinions and voices can sales improve, isn't it?

looking back at the sales of the kia k5, it has not achieved sales of more than 200 units in the past seven months of this year. this shows that chinese people do not recognize its product strength and their enthusiasm for buying it is even pitifully low. therefore, since kia has officially launched the new 2025 kia k5 model, it must still want to sell the new car well. it is precisely based on the previous poor sales that the official price reduction and configuration improvement of the new car are now available.

in short, we are not writing this article today to say how good the new kia k5 is, but to tell you that the price of this new car has been officially reduced, and its configuration has been significantly improved compared to the old model, so it can be regarded as a manifestation of the manufacturer's sincerity.

as for whether you should buy this car, i think if you like the appearance of kia k5, then when there is a discount of 10,000 to 8,000 yuan at the new car terminal in a while, you can just buy it at a bargain price. after all, it is not bad to buy a korean mid-size car with such a high appearance, good configuration, stable driving and a certain degree of driving pleasure for 130,000 yuan. what do you think? leave a message in the comment area and let's discuss it together.
