The reception of the Kia K5 by our customers and the automotive industry at large has been impressive. Online reviews praised the current K5 sedan for its comfortable handling profile, quiet passenger cabin and a long list of standard and available connectivity technology. People visiting the Team Gunther Kia showroom to look at the automaker’s latest sedan model have been prone to ask, ‘Can I connect to apps wirelessly in the 2021 Kia K5?’ Broadly speaking, yes, this is the case. In fact, wireless connectivity options are found on almost every one of the vehicle’s five trim grades. Let’s take a closer look at what is available.

Available Multimedia Features in the 2021 K5 

Owners of the 2021 Kia K5 will control much of the vehicle’s multimedia features through an 8- or a 10.25-inch touchscreen interface. All five 2021 Kia K5 trim grades will have access to a full suite of smartphone-compatible applications from the Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ suites. Team Gunther Kia customers choosing models of the K5 with the 8-inch touchscreen will be able to connect to the applications without getting tangled up in additional USB cords.  

People with the larger digital interface will still require wired connections to the Kia infotainment system.  

Bluetooth® connectivity is old hat at this point in the world of automotive technology. Kia, however, has made the next generation of this technology an option on the top two 2021 Kia K5 trim grades that will allow multiple devices to connect to the Bluetooth® signal simultaneously. Additionally, the same two top-end K5 models will offer wireless charging capability to keep mobile devices charged and ready to use at all times.
