This Is When Kia’s Sexy New Sedan Will Arrive

When the e-mail does not reference the motor vehicle by title, probably preserving the Optima as opposed to K5 secret, it does include a tiny teaser that obviously displays a sedan with all the hallmarks of the Korea-particular model we’ve already found.

The North American debut will get place at two:00 PM Japanese time, at last confirming our suspicions about the new motor vehicle. Ability is predicted to be derived from a two.five-liter four-cylinder generating 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque or an optional 1.6-liter turbo-four generating one hundred eighty hp and 195 lb-ft of torque – both equally shared with the mechanically related Hyundai Sonata. For the very first time ever, the new motor vehicle is predicted to present an all-wheel-travel selection with the 1.6-liter motor.
