IIA learned the power information of the K5 Kaiku from Dongfeng Yueda Kia. The new car will provide 1.5T and 2.0T power. Among them, the maximum power of the 1.5T engine is 170 horsepower, matching the 7-speed DCT gearbox; the maximum power of the 2.0T engine is 240 horsepower, matching the 8AT gearbox. It is reported that K5 Kaku will debut at the Chengdu Auto Show and announce the pre-sale price of the car.
The K5 1.5T engine uses the world's first fourth-generation CVVD technology, and it is also the first time it is installed in a B-class car. CVVD technology can improve fuel efficiency by 5%, which can reduce fuel consumption to 5.6L and reduce exhaust emissions by 12%. In addition to CVVD technology, K5’s new generation of Hyundai Kia’s Smartstream power also includes such advanced technologies as HTCS (High-Turbulence Combustion System), FOMS, ITMS (Integrated Thermal Management System) and HIE EGR (exhaust gas recirculation).
The front end adopts the latest design language called "Tiger Nose Evolution". The recessed air intake grille looks more three-dimensional. With the sharp headlights on both sides, the front face of the K5 Kaiku looks more dynamic. In addition, the rims of this new car are available in three sizes of 17, 18 and 19 inches, and the design of the grill and exhaust pipe will vary according to the model's power system.
In terms of body size, the length, width, and height of the K5 Kaiku are 4,980mm, 1,860mm, and 1,445mm, and the wheelbase is 2,900mm. The length and wheelbase of domestic models are increased by 75mm and 50mm respectively compared to overseas models. Compared with the domestic version of the current K5, K5 Kaku has increased 125mm and 95mm in body length and wheelbase, respectively, which can better meet the needs of domestic consumers.
The interior of the new car adopts a more regular shape, and the center console is a through-type design, which has a strong lateral visual effect. In terms of configuration, the new car adopts a dual-screen design of 12.3-inch full LCD digital instrument and 12.3-inch central control screen. The car-machine system is equipped with Baidu Intelligent Interconnect 3.0 system, and uses touch-type air conditioning and multimedia control. The lever is also changed to a knob style.
