Kia’s continued presence in the sedan field with its K4 and K5 offerings shows they are serious about sticking it out in this segment, as many other OEMs are dropping sedan lines to focus on SUVs.

And to spice things up, they have some interesting options available, including the 2025 Kia K5 GT, a turbocharged powerhouse I recently had the pleasure of pedaling.

The K5 is the larger of the two Kia sedan offerings, and this GT offering shows they are able to provide buyers with an option that doubles as both a solid family commuter ride and a fun weekend getaway car.

Read on to learn more about the 2025 Kia K5 GT, and how it holds up against the remaining midsize SUVs battling for critical market share.

While much of the world continues to obsess over SUVs and trucks, it’s easy to forget that some individuals and families still need a small, affordable car.

This is why vehicles like the brand new 2025 Kia K4 — a brand new compact sedan that replaces the Forte in Kia’s lineup — exist.

I recently tested a 2025 Kia K4 GT-Line Turbo model, which showed me that a small vehicle can still have a lot to offer.

Read on for a full breakdown of how this vehicle measures up in a battle against compact sedan stalwarts such as the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, Mazda3 and Hyundai Elantra.

While other brands are bowing out of the sedan market to focus on SUVs, Volkswagen isn’t quite throwing in the towel.

For the 2025 model year, they continue to offer the Volkswagen Jetta, a budget-friendly compact sedan offering attractive styling and strong fuel efficiency.

Offered for the past 35 years, the Jetta is VW’s only remaining sedan, and gets a refreshed look on both the front and rear ends for 2025, but not a full redesign.

I recently tested a 2025 Volkswagen Jetta (SEL trim level), and I’m back with a full report on how it holds up against compact sedan offerings from Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, Mazda and more.

As drivers continue to embrace SUVs as the go-to vehicle, sedans continue to face a tough environment.

With that in mind, we are saying goodbye to another sedan in 2025, and this time it’s the Subaru Legacy, which is bidding farewell after more than 35 years and more than 1.3 million sales in North America.

The Legacy is a vehicle that’s easy to like. It’s capable of dealing with tough weather conditions, well-equipped with safety features, is quite roomy inside, and offers a strong turbo engine option.

I recently tested the 2025 Subaru Legacy (a Touring XT model), and I’m back with a full report on how it holds up to the remaining sedan rivals — from Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Kia and Nissan — in its final year.

In the luxury realm, automakers are taking a variety of approaches to the electrification movement.

One of the automakers that has most aggressively embraced the EV movement is Volvo, yet they also know that some people aren’t quite ready to make the full leap to an EV, and prefer alternatives.

I recently spent time with a 2025 Volvo S60 plug-in hybrid sedan, one of the offerings from the brand to people who want a taste of electrification but not the full commitment.

The S60 is a powerful and stylish vehicle, and unfortunately it will not be returning for the 2026 model year, making the 2025 S60 the final version available for interested buyers — ending a 25-year run.

Read on for a full breakdown of what you’ll be getting if you decide to pick up an S60 before it drives off into the sunset.
