Starting at an estimated price of $23,000, the K4 offers a blend of style, comfort, and technology. While it won't be available with all-wheel drive, its front-wheel-drive configuration is expected to provide ample power and efficiency.  Inside, the K4 boasts a modern and spacious interior with high-quality materials and ample legroom for both front and rear passengers. Features like a large touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and a suite of advanced safety features are expected to be standard or optional across trim levels.  

The new Kia K4 is an exciting addition to Kia's lineup, making its debut in late 2024. It offers a sleek design, modern technology, and more interior space than its predecessor, the Forte. The K4 is available in five trims (LX, LXS, EX, GT-Line, and GT-Line Turbo), and boasts a wider, more spacious cabin with class-leading rear legroom at 38 inches. The fastback-like silhouette and hidden rear door handles enhance its sporty, coupe-like appearance.

Inside, the K4 features a 30-inch digital display spanning the dashboard, along with Kia's new Connected Car Navigation Cockpit (ccNC) system, supporting wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Additional advanced tech, like Digital Key 2.0 and over-the-air updates, are also included, providing enhanced convenience.

Kia Announces the K4 Hatchback Coming in 2026

The all-new 2026 Kia K4 Hatchback is arriving soon at Benson Kia, bringing a bold new perspective to the compact car segment in Spartanburg. This upcoming model is expected to be the best in its class for tech, styling, and color, offering a refreshing alternative to traditional options like the Subaru Impreza hatchback. While the Impreza relies on a more conservative design and standard all-wheel drive, the K4 Hatchback stands out with its futuristic Opposites United design language and an available 190-horsepower turbocharged engine that delivers a more spirited driving experience. Drivers will appreciate the superior interior refinement of the Kia, which features a driver-centric cockpit and a much more modern aesthetic than the functional but aging interior found in the Subaru.

In terms of technology and everyday convenience, the K4 Hatchback significantly outpaces its rivals. It features a stunning available 29-inch combined digital display that integrates the instrument cluster and infotainment into one seamless interface, providing a level of connectivity the Subaru Impreza cannot match. The K4 also introduces segment-leading cargo versatility with 23.9 cubic feet of space behind the second row and up to 59 cubic feet of total storage, making it the practical choice for active South Carolina lifestyles. With a wide array of vibrant color options and advanced safety features like the Blind-Spot View Monitor, this new hatchback is designed to turn heads while keeping you protected on the road.

This stylish new addition to the Kia lineup is set to redefine what a compact hatchback can be. Beyond its visual appeal and high-tech cabin, the K4 Hatchback offers a premium experience with available features like heated and ventilated SynTex seats and a Harman Kardon premium audio system. Whether you are commuting through Spartanburg or heading out for a weekend getaway, the 2026 Kia K4 Hatchback provides a more sophisticated and tech-forward environment than the competition. Stay tuned to Benson Kia for the latest updates on its arrival so you can be among the first to experience this class-leading vehicle in person.
