From the reliability of the LX trim to the dynamic and sporty power of the GT, every Kia K5 configuration gives you an expertly designed balance of ferocity and efficiency. A ride with this level of fuel consumption will help you save time at the pump, since you can leave the gas station in the rear-view mirror more often.
Fuel Saving Tips
While you’re hitting the road in your Kia K5, there are several good habits you can get into to ensure you have an efficient drive. Keep these in mind as you get ready for your next road trip:
- Weight plays an important role in your fuel economy. The more weight you add to your Kia K5, the more gas it will need to get moving. It’s plenty spacious inside for your friends with 105.3 cubic feet of passenger volume. Keep in mind that more people will mean more fuel use, though.
- Level surfaces are the ideal conditions for your Kia car to drive on. Paved roads let you have a seamless drive. If you have to take it to dirt paths or gravel, keep in mind that you’ll need more power (and fuel) to drive on these uneven paths.
