It has not been officially introduced yet, but some advance information on the all-new Kia K4 sedan/hatchback is now available, both on YouTube and on Kia's website. It will be gasoline, not electric, and use basically the same drivetrains as the Seltos. The K4 replaces the outgoing Forte, which has been around for more than 15 years, and uses the typical current Kia styling up front and inside with the big dash-wide screen. It slots one size below the current mid-sized K5 sedan, which replaced the former Optima.

KIA has already issued a recall for it

 

Depending on price could steal sales from Corolla and Civic.

 

Waiting for K9

 

What's K9?

 

A comedic comment

 

I should have saw that coming


 

the k900 which was sold briefly in the u.s., is still sold as the k9 in s. korea.

it's being updated a bit for '25. i LOVE the interior on this car.

 

Kia should sell this in the US. Same with the Boreggo. But with a different name as that name was awful.

 

Yes, I was thinking the same thing.

 

Both the Borrego and the K900 were once sold here, but were dropped from low sales. The last Borrego to be sold in the U.S. was not a crossover.........it was a true truck-frame SUV.

If you can find a recall on the K4, post it here or in your Hyundai/Kia recall thread.....I could not find one on a search.
