The GT-Line is the flagship model in the K4 Hatch range, sitting at the top of the four-model line-up, and breaking well in the $40K range, with its sticker price of $43,790.
Unlike the rest of the K4 range, which are powered by a 2.0-litre engine, the GT-Line gets its own engine and transmission combination, a 1.6-litre turbo that makes 142kW and 265Nm paired with an eight-speed automatic.
The K4 hatch is slightly shorter and slightly lower than the Cerato it effectively replaces, but there is some clever interior packaging, so much so in fact that Kia says you get more legroom and headroom in both the front row and the second row than you did in the old Cerato, but marginally less shoulder room in the back seat.
What does that mean in real terms? It means that I think you'd actually get away with this as a family car, at least in terms of passenger space.
Sitting behind my own 175cm driving position, I had tonnes of knee room and enough headroom to get comfortable. Yes, it would be tight with three adults across the back, but you could have two kids back there, or a child seat or two, easily.
