The model announced for Korea, after being removed from the American market in 2021, has received a significant update in its aesthetics with new vertical headlights and a completely redesigned front end. The rear has also undergone changes, removing the fake exhaust tips and featuring a cleaner bumper.

Inside, the K8 features repositioned climate controls, more soft-touch materials, and an LED ambient lighting strip dividing the dashboard. Additionally, all versions come with 10 airbags as standard and adaptive high beam headlights, ensuring safety and comfort for occupants.

Engine options include a 2.5-liter gasoline engine and a 3.5-liter V6, as well as a version with liquid propane injection and a hybrid powertrain.

With prices starting at approximately $27,300 and going up to $37,800, the K8 offers good value for a luxury sedan. Sales of all versions except the hybrid will begin soon, while Kia works on certifying the electrified model.
