2026 Kia K4 Hatchback Specs
The 2026 Kia K4 Hatchback doesn’t just show up — it makes an entrance. Debuting as the more athletic sibling of the K4 sedan, this new hatchback blends head-turning design, turbocharged attitude, and class-leading interior flexibility in one punchy package. Outten Kia in Hamburg, PA is excited to welcome this stylish and spirited new ride to our showroom soon — and trust us, it’s worth the hype.
Breaking Down the 2026 Kia K4 Hatchback Specs
From the curb to the cabin, the 2026 Kia K4 Hatchback packs in premium features with a practical design. Its floating roof and shorter body — nearly 11 inches less than the sedan — give it a more compact, agile stance that’s perfect for city driving or tight parking spaces.
Under the hood, the K4 Hatchback offers two engine options:
- A standard 2.0-liter engine producing 147 hp and 132 lb-ft of torque
- An available turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder that churns out 190 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque
Thanks to the available sport-tuned suspension, the turbo models really come to life — adding fun-to-drive flavor to the functional hatch. Plus, the K4 Hatchback boasts up to 22.2 cu-ft of cargo room behind the rear seats and 59.3 cu-ft with the seats down, giving drivers the best of both worlds: sporty handling and utility.

A Look Inside the K4 Hatchback’s Trim Levels and Tech
The 2026 Kia K4 Hatchback trim levels include the standard appearance and the striking GT-Line, with the GT-Line Turbo delivering the most power and premium features. Each version offers a mix of modern design, intuitive controls, and everyday comfort. Available features include:
