Are you satisfied with what you see?
Kia has released the official K8 media images. This officially marks the end to the Cadenza/K7 namesake. We are yet to see the inside of this fancy-looking Korean sedan, although we believe it is a more expensive move.
Kia stated that additional information as well as official interior photos will be available at a later time. cars_secrets has shared a series of photos that look like spy shots of the interior of the K8 on Instagram.
The embedded images may be visible in the post, but you can browse all the images by clicking the right arrow.
The steering wheel has the redesigned Kia logo, but the horizontal display that runs from the driver’s seat to the middle of the dashboard is what really caught our attention. You can also see a number of premium options, including the wood veneer accents and the brown leather seats with diamond-shaped stitching.
You should also not overlook the absence of a gear lever as spied in photos of the K8’s interior. It seems that Kia chose to replace the traditional lever with a rotary knob. The P is located at the center, similar to the Sorento SUV or Carnival minivan.
We’ll soon see more images of the cabin as Kia is gearing up for the sale of the K8 later in the year. We can expect more details about the official launch of the large sedan, including images of the interior.
You might also want to take a look at these photos of the exterior. The design direction of Kia is certainly a bold one, but you can decide if it works.
