The Kia K5 hasn’t fared well since it went on sale in 2020. Sales for the sedan have fallen, and there are rumors that the automaker is considering discontinuing it in America. However, the K5, formerly known as the Optima, is still on sale here, and a new video shows that it will receive a mid-cycle refresh.
While the video gets up close to the car, the thick cladding and camouflage conceal many of the changes. However, there are hints of the new design poking through. The K5 should receive a substantially redesigned front fascia. The stylized headlights look a tad more traditional on the revamped model, but the automaker obscured the daytime running lights, which could retain some of the current model’s aggressive character.
