The Kia Cerato is no more. Welcome to the Kia line-up, the new K4.
It is bigger than the Cerato in almost every dimension and has a bigger cabin as well as a sleek new exterior design.
From launch the only body style is the sedan, but a hatchback is coming before the end of 2025. It’s also petrol power only for now but expect a hybrid soon.
Compared with the Cerato GT, pricing has increased by more than $6100, but Kia says the uptick in price can be put down to an increase in in-car and safety tech, greater levels of refinement and more.
The GT-Line uses a 1.6-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol unit, matched with an eight-speed torque converter auto. With power and torque outputs of 142kW and 264Nm, it is down slightly compared with the outgoing Cerato GT’s 150kW/265Nm figures, but the K4 GT-Line is no full-fat GT.
As a result, fuel consumption on the combined (urban/extra-urban) cycle is down by 0.2L to 6.7 litres per 100 kilometres.
As the flagship grade, the GT-Line gains the most standard gear and on top of everything that’s included on the Sport+, you get a premium Harman Kardon eight-speaker audio system, a three-spoke premium steering wheel, artificial leather seats, eight-way power driver’s seat, paddle shifters, ambient lighting, heated steering wheel and a wireless charging pad.
You also get a more premium interior with two-tone synthetic leather, a two-tone three-spoke GT-Line steering wheel and more soft-touch materials.
