The result is an engaging, fuel-efficient driving experience that's perfectly suited to Kansas City roads and beyond.

The K4's interior wraps around the driver with an angled center console, premium soft-touch materials, and an available panoramic sunroof that floods the cabin with natural light.
The large, high-resolution display puts navigation, media, and vehicle controls at your fingertips. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ keep you connected on every drive — no cables needed.
From the signature star-map LED daytime running lights to the sculpted hood and fastback roofline, the K4 announces itself as something genuinely different in the compact sedan segment.
