Kia K5 GT Price: MSRP, Trims & Real-World Cost
Typical price
$27,690 – $33,790
The 2027 Kia K5 GT costs $33,790 before destination. The full K5 lineup runs $27,690 – $33,790, with the GT at the top.
The K5 GT is the sportiest version of Kia's midsize sedan, and it sits at the top of the model's price ladder. If you are shopping for it, the number that matters is not only the GT's sticker price. The gap between the GT and the trims below it, the destination fee, and the change from last year's price all affect what you actually pay.
This guide lays out the 2027 K5 trims, shows where the GT sits, and adds the extra charges that sit outside the MSRP.

Kia K5 GT price compared with other K5 trims
The 2027 lineup starts with the LXS front-wheel drive at $27,690. The GT-Line FWD costs $28,690, and the GT-Line with all-wheel drive is $30,290. The GT tops the range at $33,790.
That means the GT costs several thousand dollars more than the GT-Line AWD. Check Kia's current specifications for the exact powertrain and feature differences between the GT-Line and the GT before you decide that the premium is worth it.
If all-wheel drive matters to you, note that the published price list shows it on the GT-Line. Confirm on Kia's configurator whether the GT offers it, since drivetrain availability can change from one model year to the next.
Destination fee and options
A destination charge is added to every new car and is separate from the MSRP. For the 2027 K5 it is $1,245. Kia also sells equipment packages. One reported example is the GT-Line Convenience Package.

Add the destination charge to the trim price to get a closer view of the sticker. For the GT, that means taking $33,790 and adding $1,245. Packages and dealer-installed accessories come on top of that.

The 2026 total with destination is $34,835. To compare the two model years fairly, add $1,245 to the 2027 price, or subtract destination from the 2026 total. Destination fees can also change from year to year, so compare the actual figures in each source.
What affects the price you pay
The MSRP is a starting point. Several things change what ends up on the contract:
- Options and packages added to the trim.
- Sales tax, title, and registration, which depend on your state.
- Dealer documentation and other fees.
- Incentives, financing offers, or a trade-in, which can lower the amount you finance.
- Local demand. Some dealers sell above sticker on popular trims, while others discount.
Ask every dealer for an itemized out-the-door price in writing, then compare those numbers instead of monthly payments alone.
Buying new versus used
A used K5 GT costs less than a new one, but the savings depend on the model year, mileage, and condition. Used prices are not part of the MSRP data here, so check current listings and vehicle history reports before comparing. When you compare, keep the powertrain and trim the same, since a used GT-Line is not the same car as a used GT. If you finance, compare the interest rate on the loan as well as the monthly payment.
