Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard on all hatchbacks for added connectivity, plus there’s a wireless phone charger and SynTex heated front seats.
Available premium features include a heated steering wheel, a Harman Kardon audio system, and Digital Key 2.0 with Ultra Wideband technology that allows compatible smart devices to act as virtual keys.
With digital features and services available through the Kia Connect Store, owners can access even more features, including OTA streaming with updates, music streaming and customizable display themes.
Kia’s voice assistant allows drivers to control key vehicle functions by simply saying “Hey Kia” to adjust climate control, manage sound and more.
The K4 Hatchback comes standard with a 2.0-liter engine that produces 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque, along with an Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT), while the GT-Line Turbo features a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that delivers 190 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels through an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Exclusively, the K4 Hatchback GT-Line and GT-Line Turbo models feature a sportier chassis that improves handling compared to standard equipment, as well as other unique design elements that underline their sporty character.
The K4 hatchback will also be equipped with Kia ADAS, features similar to those of the sedan, with notable systems such as standard Blind Spot Collision Avoidance Assist and Intelligent Cruise Control with Stop & Go. (SCC with S&G)
