Kia has announced pricing for the cheapest car in its lineup, the K4 sedan. The 2025 Kia K4 will start at $23,145 with the $1,155 destination charge included. Replacing the Forte in Kia's lineup, the K4 is among the cheapest cars in America right now.

For that price you get a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated inline-four rated at 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. It sends power to the front wheels via a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). The base LX trim gets wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along a suite of driver-assistance systems as standard, including speed limit assist, lane-keep assist, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capabilities. There's standard blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alerts, too.

Model Price Kia K4 LX $23,145 Kia K4 LXS $24,145 Kia K4 EX $25,145 Kia K4 GT-Line $26,345 Kia K4 GT-Line Turbo $29,245

Options for the 2025 K4 include an available multi-segment display cockpit, a Harman Kardon sound system, heated and ventilated seats, and a sunroof.

Step up to the $26,345 GT-Line, and you get unique styling front and rear, along with bigger 18-inch alloy wheels and a smattering of black trim pieces along the exterior. The GT-Line Turbo takes things one step further, swapping out the base engine for a 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 190 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque. That'll cost you an extra $2,900.

The base K4 is set to arrive at dealers in September 2024. The GT-Line will show up one month later, followed by the turbo model in early 2025.
