The new Kia K8 hybrid sedan debuted
The day before, Kia has unveiled a new K8 sedan with a hybrid unit.
The car will appear in several countries, but South Korea is the most critical market for the vehicle.
The exterior of the K8 Hybrid differs from the standard variant of the model with an internal combustion engine with new wheels, HEV nameplates on the body, and a different panel design in the front.
The hybrid power plant is based on a 1.0-liter turbocharged engine and 1.49-kilowatt-hour batteries. The general power of the installation can be called quite powerful - 230 "horses." In addition, the novelty is highly economical, consuming only 5.6 liters/100 km.
On sale, the latest sedan K8 Hybrid will appear in the coming weeks.
