Kia, a sub-brand of Hyundai motors, is the second-largest automaker in South Korea behind its parent company. Kia was previously known for basic cars with the best warranties. Though Kia still has one of the best warranties in the industry today, one thing that has greatly changed is the quality and value of cars from this Korean automaker. Kia now makes some of the most efficient low-priced cars with striking designs and refined handling.
For the 2022 model year, Kia has made additions and redesigns to revigorate its stellar lineup and keep the brand at the forefront.
Here are the significant changes in KIA’s lineup for 2022
2022 Carnival
For 2022, KIA introduces the all-new Carnival as an SUV-like minivan that looks to replace the Sedona. The new Carnival is powered by a refined 3.5Liter V6 engine that produces 290-horses and 262 lb-ft of torque. The interior is upscale and feature-studded. The new Carnival competes well in its class of modern minivans.
2022 EV6
KIA is looking to bolster its lineup of fully electric vehicles as it introduces the company’s first-ever exclusive electric car, the EV6. This is huge for the South Korean automaker as it intends to build 11 more EVs by 2026.
The all-wheel-drive model of the 2022 EV6 can generate an incredible 576-ponies. The interior is also impressive and futuristic, with a host of KIA’s latest infotainment technology.
2022 Soul
This first conspicuous change on the 2022 Soul is KIA’s new logo. It also gets an upgraded infotainment display on the base model. Also, Kia has retired the manual transmission on its predecessor.
2022 Sportage
The Sportage gets a slight redesign on its exterior for the 2022 model year. The headlights, wheels, and exhaust pipes have all get new upgrades. Inside, we can see beautiful ambient lighting, as well as an optional larger infotainment display.
2022 Stinger
Kia’s sports sedan gets a slight engine upgrade for 2022. Its standard 2-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine makes way for a more vibrant 2.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder that produces 300-horsepower.
2022 Forte
The Kia forte compact sedan will get a fresh look for 2022 and a possible name change. We could see Forte’s name change to K3, just like it is in the Korean market.
The rest of the vehicles in Kia’s lineup will wear the automaker’s new logo and get minor upgrades. Even though there are speculations of a possible redesign for the Niro, Kia hasn’t said much about that.
