Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Mazda 6 in great car but for me interior size is smaller compared to K5 and sonata also more poor for interior design compared to other options.
  • I'd go for Kia K5. It looks absolutely killer and shares the same platform as Sonata (if I'm not wrong).
  • You can find a kia k5 or a Mitsubishi Lancer for that budget

Cons

  • Kia K5 an Hyundai sonata for mechanical parts are the Same just matter of your taste for design acceptance.
  • The adaptive cruise control on it is quite good (7/10), the driver seating is decent too being on the higher side, and it's decent for spirited driving on long drives. But I do feel my back complain on long drives.
  • I am currently looking at a Kia K5. It's not one of the newer models and is a few years old. The carfax shows that the transmission was replaced by another Kia dealership. I had originally thought it may have been for a recall on the veh...
  • Check and test drive Kia K5, hyundai sonata, changan uni-v, mg 7.
  • if you want comfort and can compromise for a bit lesser reliability then go for K5 or Sonata

I am currently looking at a Kia K5. It's not one of the newer models and is a few years old. The carfax shows that the transmission was replaced by another Kia dealership. I had originally thought it may have been for a recall on the vehicle, so I called to inquire about it, and they told me the transmission was replaced because there were issues with it getting stuck between second and third gear.
