$69,990 drive-away
Good news across the range is that Kia hasn t skimped on important safety features - autonomous emergency braking and many other features are standard across the range. While S makes do with manual cloth seats, 8-inch infotainment and manual air conditioning, it s the cheapest of the bunch at $50,390 drive-away (petrol).
Opting for Si specification brings 18-inch alloy wheels and a 12.3-inch infotainment system, amongst other things. Pricing for Si starts at $55,790 drive-away.
Next up is SLi, starting at $60,290 drive-away. Big changes here includes synthetic leather trim, push-button start, power doors and electric seat adjustment. Once again there are more changes, but I won t bore you with them here. I ve got enough to get through as it is.
Plenty of new technology on-board
Comfortable and easy to drive
Cons
And automatic wipers are another brief (but glaring) omission
Platinum specification starts to get pricey
