The 2026 Kia K5 is a practical, affordable, and high-tech midsize sedan with a sportier edge and more daring styling than most of its rivals.

Cons

<ul>
<li>Rivals are roomier and more efficient</li>
<li>No hybrid option</li>
</ul>

Power, Ride, and Handling

Driving Impressions

The 2026 Kia K5 is powered by a 191-horsepower 4-cylinder engine matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive (FWD). All-wheel drive (AWD) is optional exclusively with the GT-Line trim. The performance of the K5 with its base engine is pretty par for the course for a midsize sedan. It does everything it&#8217;s realistically asked to do in daily commuting, from quick maneuvers in city driving to the occasional semi-truck pass on the highway. Even with kids in the back, we&#8217;ve found this engine to be more than adequate.
But maybe you have an appetite for something a little sportier in a practical daily driver. Enter the K5 GT, powered by a turbocharged 4-cylinder pumping out 290 horsepower, significantly boosting the fun factor without sacrificing practicality. The K5 GT is a veritable sport sedan at a much more affordable price point than a luxury sedan with similar performance specs. In addition to the engine upgrade, other enhancements include a sport-tuned suspension, bigger brakes, quad-tip exhaust, and paddle shifters.
<h3>Fuel Economy</h3>
The 2026 Kia K5 returns up to 26 city/37 highway/30 combined mpg with the base engine and front-wheel drive. Upgrading to all-wheel drive or the turbo engine in the GT trim brings the combined rating down to 27 mpg.
Notably, the Kia K5 and the Nissan Altima are the only midsize sedans in this class for 2026 that do not come with a hybrid option. The Toyota Camry comes exclusively as a hybrid, which gets up to 51 combined mpg, while the hybrid versions of the Honda Accord and Hyundai Sonata get up to 48 mpg and 47 mpg, respectively. Even when compared to the most efficient versions of its non-hybrid rivals, the Kia K5&#8217;s efficiency ratings are on the low side of this class.

Visually striking exterior

Exterior

With distinctive angles in the light signatures and sleek lines throughout the body, this is arguably the most visually striking midsize sedan, and we’re all for it. With sedans becoming more of an individual statement than ever, making a strong statement with the K5 follows a particular logic.

FAQs

Our Favorite Features and Tech

Favorite Features

Infotainment system 
Kia has been on the cutting edge in recent years when it comes to offering the latest and greatest infotainment technology in mainstream  cars, and the K5 is no exception. A 12.3-inch display and wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay come standard on every trim, and the upper trims get extras like navigation and Bose audio.
K5 GT 
Genuinely sporty variants of mainstream midsize sedans are becoming a thing of the past as hybrids become more popular. The Kia K5 GT keeps the faith with a hearty turbo engine pumping out 290 hp and 311 pound-feet of torque, along with upgraded brakes and suspension, topped off by a sporty appearance package.
Highway Driving Assist 
Kia&#8217;s Highway Driving Assist is one of our favorite semi-autonomous highway driving systems of its kind. It&#8217;s not hands-free, but it&#8217;s one of the most natural-feeling systems for keeping you centered in your lane at a safe distance from the car in front of you while you keep a light hand on the wheel.
All-wheel drive 
Only available with the GT-Line trim, but at least it’s available.
Blind-Spot View Monitor 
Better than basic blind-spot monitoring, this shows real-time video of the side of the car in the digital instrument cluster. This is standard in the EX trim.
Digital Key 2.0 
Several people can drive one K5 by using their phone for access. Authorizing another user is as simple as sending a text message.

Rich Interior

Interior

We’ve said it many times before and will no doubt repeat it many times in the future, but Kia interiors feel more expensive than they are. The designs, shapes, materials, and build quality all contribute to an excellent overall package. The interior&#8217;s centerpiece is a panoramic display with a 12.3-inch infotainment screen, which is home to the car&#8217;s wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay features. The climate and infotainment controls sharing a control panel takes some getting used to; drivers who prefer physical knobs and switches might not like this layout. However, we appreciate the old-fashioned, console-mounted shifter rather than buttons or dials handling shifting duties.
We’ve found the seats sufficiently comfortable, but it took some of our editors a bit more adjusting than usual to find an ideal driving position. The back seats are reasonably roomy with 35.2 inches of legroom, but the Camry and Accord have more adult-friendly rear seating. The K5’s 16-cubic-foot trunk is among the roomiest in the class, although they’re all pretty similar in that regard.

KBB Editors' Overview

Sedans make something of a statement in rebellion against the rise of the SUV as America&#8217;s preferred way of getting around. The Kia K5 is the midsize car that perhaps makes the loudest statement in this class today. It checks the boxes for what everyone wants in a daily driver, like decent fuel economy and interior space, plus class-leading warranty coverage. But the K5 also boasts a unique look, interior quality that punches above its price point, and a more engaging driving experience than you might expect. For enthusiasts looking for a daily driver that&#8217;s exciting to drive, the sporty K5 GT is one of the most thrilling cars in this class. Add in available all-wheel drive (AWD) and some of our favorite infotainment and driver assistance technology, and the Kia K5 makes for a compelling package.

Engine and Transmission

Under the Hood

The main engine in the 2025 K5 lineup is a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder unit making 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. The GT variant employs a turbocharged 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine, creating 290 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque. Both engines link up to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is the standard setup, although the GT-Line (with the 191-horsepower engine) offers the option of all-wheel drive.
<h3>5-Year/60,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
Kia’s warranties are among the best available. Bumper-to-bumper coverage is five years or 60,000 miles, whichever happens first — this includes roadside assistance. Powertrains are covered for 10 years or 100,000 miles.
<h3>Safety Ratings</h3>
Although once named a Top Safety Pick+ by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (<a href="https://www.iihs.org/ratings/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IIHS</a>), updated tests have downgraded the Kia K5. It took top marks of Good in most crash-test categories, except for a Poor rating in the front overlap test and a Marginal in the side impact test. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (<a href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NHTSA</a>) continues to give the K5 its maximum 5-Star overall score. Standard safety features include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian/cyclist detection, junction turning assistance, and blind-spot monitoring.

The Honda Civic Hybrid takes everything we love about the fun and practical Civic and adds a hybrid powertrain that gets up to 49 mpg.

<ul>
<li>Small standard screen</li>
<li>No AWD option</li>
</ul>

The 2026 Honda Civic is powered by a 200-horsepower hybrid 4-cylinder engine matched with two electric motors, an e-CVT automatic transmission, and front-wheel drive. This setup has 50 more horsepower than the base engine in the non-hybrid Civic, and it even has more torque than the lively Civic Si. With better fuel economy and better performance, the Civic’s gas-electric hybrid powertrain is easy to recommend.
Honda added extra sound deadening to the hybrid version of the Civic to give it quiet and composed driving manners, helping to drown out some of the noisiness that’s still inherent in hybrids. Honda hasn’t forgotten its roots; it also tuned the steering and suspension of the Civic Hybrid to be a little more fun and dynamic than the average commuter car.
The Civic Hybrid’s small size and nimbleness make it easy to maneuver around town and allow it to slot into parking spaces that would be challenging for cars just one size class larger. We’ve also found that highway miles pass quickly in this Honda, particularly when the standard adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assistance do some of the work.
<h3>Fuel Economy</h3>
The 2026 Honda Civic Hybrid sedan gets an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of up to 50 city/47 highway/49 combined mpg. The hatchback variant is slightly less efficient, returning 48 mpg combined. For reference, the non-hybrid version of the Civic gets up to 36 mpg.
Meanwhile, the Toyota Corolla Hybrid has a max combined fuel economy rating of 47 mpg, and the Hyundai Elantra Hybrid gets up to 54 mpg in mixed driving. The Toyota Prius is still the efficiency king of this class, netting up to 57 combined mpg.

Sporty Exterior

Every Honda Civic Hybrid comes with the sport appearance package that’s optional on the non-hybrid Civic. It adds a stylish edge to this practical hybrid and hints at its surprisingly eager performance. We love that the Civic Hybrid has two body styles available: a sedan and a hatchback.

Sedan or hatchback 
Some people like a sedan’s lockable trunk; others prefer the ability to carry trickier cargo — like a bicycle, for example — that comes with a hatchback. We’re just glad the Civic Hybrid — like the combustion-only version — offers both.
Honda Sensing 
Every 2026 Civic Hybrid comes with this array of safety features. Among the many functions are forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, and road-departure mitigation. Because the Civic Hybrid comes in above the base level of the wider Civic range, it also has blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert.
Quiet time 
Honda made sure the hybrid version is the quietest of the Civic range, with Active Noise Control and plenty of sound insulation, plus special wheels on the top Sport Touring trim.
Driving modes 
We always appreciate having a car that can adapt to different demands. The Civic Hybrid has Econ, Normal, and Sport driving modes, while the Sport Touring trim adds an Individual setting for drivers to select their own combination. One clever little touch is that Econ driving mode not only softens throttle response, it also puts climate control into its most economical setting.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto 
These highly useful phone integration features are standard across the 2026 Civic lineup. They&#8217;re wireless in the Sport Touring version.
Bose audio 
The Civic Sport Touring adds this 12-speaker premium sound system to make the Civic Hybrid feel closer to a luxury car. The Bose Centerpoint technology creates a surround-sound effect for a more immersive listening experience.

Roomy Interior

We’re impressed by the Civic Hybrid&#8217;s interior, with its cool metal mesh strip going across the dashboard and the available phone charging pad. We also appreciate how roomy this is for a <a href="https://www.kbb.com/cars/best-compact-cars/">compact car</a>, where adults can fit in the back quite comfortably, thanks to near-class-leading 37.4 inches of legroom. Up front, we enjoyed our time in the top Sport Touring trim, noticing the soft touch points under our elbows and the well-cushioned seats. There&#8217;s no lumbar adjustment, though, so anyone with back issues might need to keep this in mind.
The Civic Hybrid is in a pricier section of the overall Civic spectrum. The highest Sport Touring trim comes with a Google-based infotainment system offering an array of tech features such as voice commands and third-party apps, plus a 9-inch touchscreen with crisp graphics. The lower Sport trim has a 7-inch screen, which is on the small side.
Some hybrids have smaller trunks than their combustion-only counterparts (to accommodate the battery), but Honda has mastered these packaging challenges. The Civic Hybrid enjoys the same trunk as the regular Civic, measuring 14.8 cubic feet, which is class-leading for a compact sedan. The hatchback has almost 10 cubic feet of extra cargo space compared with the sedan, and even more when the back seats are folded.

The Honda Civic Hybrid made a comeback for the 2025 model year, and we couldn’t be happier that it’s back. It takes the winning formula of the regular Civic (<a href="https://www.kbb.com/honda/civic/">reviewed separately</a>) and makes it much more fuel-efficient, netting up to 49 mpg in mixed driving. The frugal Civic Hybrid also turns up the performance, with more torque than the sporty Civic Si. Meanwhile, it gets the basics right, which earns the Civic our <a href="https://www.kbb.com/awards/best-buy-awards-2025-honda-civic-compact-car/">Best Buy Award</a>, like a spacious interior, modern tech, fun driving dynamics, and class-leading resale value. The Honda Civic Hybrid is simply one of the most practical new cars money can buy.
We’ve spent hundreds of hours driving and evaluating this generation of <a href="https://www.kbb.com/cars/best-compact-cars/">compact cars</a>, including the Honda Civic Hybrid.

2026 Honda Civic Hybrid Pricing

The base price of the 2026 Honda Civic Hybrid is a little high compared to <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hybrid/best-hybrid-cars/">hybrid</a> rivals like the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/corolla-hybrid/">Toyota Corolla Hybrid</a> and <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hyundai/elantra-hybrid/">Hyundai Elantra Hybrid</a> because its base trim is relatively well-equipped. The lower trims of the Civic only come with a non-hybrid engine. Pricing of the Civic Hybrid is comparable to the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/prius/">Toyota Prius</a>.
Before buying a Civic Hybrid, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should really pay. Honda Civic Hybrid resale value is the best in its segment. Recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.

<ul>
<li>Class-leading resale value</li>
<li>Up to 49 combined mpg</li>
<li>Spacious interior</li>
</ul>

The drivetrain in the 2026 Civic Hybrid uses two electric motors and a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder combustion engine to generate a total of 200 horsepower and 232 lb-ft of torque. That’s more torque than the enthusiast-focused Civic Si (which has 192 lb-ft to accompany its 200 horses). In terms of output, the new Civic Hybrid beats rivals like the Hyundai Elantra Hybrid and Toyota Corolla Hybrid, while also having an edge over the Toyota Prius.
An e-CVT automatic transmission sends power to the front wheels only. The lack of an all-wheel drive (AWD) option normally wouldn’t bother us much, but it’s worth noting that AWD is available in both the Toyota Prius and the Toyota Corolla Hybrid.
<h3>3-Year/36,000-Mile Warranty</h3>
Honda’s new-vehicle warranty lasts three years or 36,000 miles, whichever happens first. Powertrains are covered for five years or 60,000 miles, with the hybrid battery having its own warranty of eight years or 100,000 miles. These terms are typical among mainstream manufacturers. Free scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles is also included.
<h3>Safety Ratings</h3>
This generation of Civic Sedan has earned a Top Safety Pick rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (<a href="https://www.iihs.org/ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IIHS</a>) and a 5-Star overall score from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (<a href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NHTSA</a>). The Civic Hatchback is even safer; it earns the Top Safety Pick+ award from the IIHS.

Following its <a href="https://www.kbb.com/car-news/2025-honda-civic-gains-hybrid-variant-new-tech/">reintroduction in 2025</a>, there are no noteworthy changes to the Honda Civic Hybrid for 2026.
