2025 Kia K4 GT Line – Good Looking, Now With More Power (But Not Quite Enough…)

From Alex on Autos.

Kia’s K4 is an aggressively styled sedan that lacks the power to go with the newfound sport looks. Or does it? Today we test the K4 GT Line which gets the 1.6L turbo from the old Forte GT. Sort of. You see, for the K4 the 1.6L turbo has been re-tweaked to make less power but deliver better efficiency and the controversial DCT has been replaced by an 8-speed automatic. All things considered, the price is right… but is that enough? Hmmm.
