Choose Your Power: Two Dynamic Engine Options
Under the hood, the 2025 K5 lets you pick your flavor of performance.
Standard 2.5L Engine
The base 2.5L 4-cylinder engine delivers a solid 191 horsepower, giving you smooth acceleration and responsive performance for everyday drives. It’s the perfect setup for commuters and families who want comfort and confidence without compromising efficiency.
Turbocharged GT Engine
If power is your priority, the available 2.5L turbocharged engine takes things up a notch. Cranking out an exhilarating 290 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque, this engine launches the K5 GT from 0-60 mph in just 5.4 seconds. Pair that with an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, and you’ve got a sports sedan that’s tuned to thrill.
