2023 Kia K5

An increasing number of vehicles with sticker prices of $40,000 or less, some much less, offer heated mirrors.

Wheel warming has gone mainstream, with the feature standard or optional not just on luxury vehicles, but on an increasing number of models with sticker prices of $40,000 or less.

All seven model-year 2023 mid-size sedans that the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety assessed earned good crash-test ratings for the front seat, but only the Honda Accord scored a good rating for the back.

The recall of nearly 189,000 model-year 2021-23 K5s involves the car’s side curtain airbags.

Despite swirling rumors about its impending demise in the U.S., Kia’s K5 sedan is returning for the 2023 model year.
