Kia Corporation has revealed full images of the exterior and interior design of the Kia K4. The next-generation compact sedan embraces the brand’s bold attitude of continuously moving forward and brings new ways of thinking, innovation, and superior design values to the sector.
At the front, the Kia K4 creates an instant striking impression. Vertical headlamps, positioned at the extreme edges of the facial area, contribute to the creation of a wide ultra-confident stance, while the Daytime Running Light (DRL) elements integrate with horizontal chrome strips to further accentuate the K4’s sophisticated appeal. The latest iteration of Kia’s star map lighting technology based on a ‘constellation’ theme, creates a further evolution of the brand’s signature Tiger Face.
When viewed from the rear, the K4 exudes the same aura of strength and dynamism. Vertical lamps, positioned at the extreme ends of the vehicle, cut vertically downwards towards a wide, technical bumper. The air diffuser incorporated into the bumper completes the picture with its strong, graphical design.
Drawing deeply on the ‘Joy for Reason’ pillar of Kia’s design philosophy, the brand’s interior designers have created an interior that focuses on the feel of the cabin as much as its functional and practical attributes. Contrasting technical elements of the cockpit for the driver with comfort elements for the passenger strikes the perfect balance between the rational and the emotional.
Occupants can choose from a range of direct and indirect lighting options to illuminate the K4’s sophisticated, premium-quality cabin. The dashboard is dominated by a large central screen and an elegantly designed central console further emphasizing the split between the driver and passenger environments. While physical buttons and controls are deliberately kept to a minimum, a line of beautifully designed and elegantly integrated physical buttons for functions such as ‘Home,’ ‘Map’ and ‘Search’ plus a rotary controller enable quick, intuitive interaction with the car’s functions. Below that, four further buttons provide seamless control of the heating, air-con and ventilation system.
