Discover New Kia Vehicles in Bassett, VA

Kia now produces some of the most visually distinctive mainstream vehicles on American roads. Many manufacturers still play things safely with conservative styling and predictable interiors. Kia vehicles are distinct and full of character. Ever since the introduction of the third-generation Kia Optima and Kia Sportage in 2011, Kia has been transformed into a brand. Those models made people see the brand in a completely different light, and Kia has never looked back. Although value and affordability remain key Kia attributes, style and quality are now equally associated with the brand.

However, Kia’s appeal goes well beyond styling alone. The lineup now includes hybrid family SUVs, plug-in hybrids, fully electric performance models, practical compact crossovers, and upscale three-row vehicles with technology typically found in luxury brands. Kia also continues loading even entry-level models with generous equipment. Large touchscreens, wireless smartphone connectivity, and extensive driver-assistance technology are now available across much of the range, rather than reserved for expensive trims.

Popular Kia Cars and Minivans

Kia cars and minivans combine bold styling with practical interiors and substantial technology. Some models emphasize fuel efficiency and affordability, while others focus more heavily on performance or passenger space. Kia also continues to offer many vehicles with unusually modern cabin layouts, large digital displays, and slim dashboard designs.

• K4: The Kia K4 is a compact sedan seating five, replacing the Kia Forte with more dramatic styling and upgraded technology.

Higher trims include nearly 30 inches of combined digital display space and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
• K4 Hatchback: The Kia K4 Hatchback combines sporty styling with greater cargo versatility than the sedan version. Seating capacity remains five, but the hatchback body style creates a larger rear cargo opening and more usable storage space. Available GT-Line Turbo models also feature upgraded suspension tuning and larger alloy wheels.
• K5: The Kia K5 is a midsize sedan with seating for five and available AWD capability. Standard models produce 191 horsepower, while the Kia K5 GT increases output to 290 horsepower through a turbocharged 2.5-liter engine.

Seating ranges from 7 to 8, depending on configuration, while the Kia Carnival Hybrid achieves up to 33 mpg combined.

Kia Electric Vehicles

Kia has also given its electric lineup highly distinctive styling, rather than making these vehicles resemble ordinary gasoline-powered crossovers.
