Reviews
Car and DriverConsumer GuideMost Liked
The ride is quiet, and the interior is free of the usual booming and buzzing.
One Liner
Why would anyone even consider a Spectra sedan?
Edmunds.comComparison
Kia quality is improving, though it still trails the Japanese leaders, as do resale values.
Motor TrendLeast Liked
Engine noise can be obtrusive at speeds of 70 mph and above.

...a more practical Spectra ...
New Car Test DriveOne Liner
...it's way more fun than the average econobox and leaves room in the budget for the hot-rod touch.
Road & TrackComparison
...on the Spectra5 a black plastic panel visually extends the door windows into the sail panel. The result, in our eyes, is less than aesthetically pleasing, with neither the distinctive identity of the Golf, the breezy style of the Mazda3, nor the sexy sass of the Elantra hatchback offered by Hyundai a few years ago.
Model ReviewsComparison
...its word/numeral nomenclature a nod to Mazda and handsome styling that looks like the result of a gene-splice experiment involving the Toyota Matrix and Honda Civic Si.
One Liner
It strikes us as the first Kia that's reasonably entertaining in the twisties.
Most Liked
...best-in-class interior room, with huge rear doors allowing access to a rear-seating area that's an easy fit for 6-footers.
Least Liked
The linkage of the 5-speed manual, though more solid than last year's, feels a mite sticky into and out of each gate, and the 4-5 shift will occasionally balk.
If you're looking for strong value in a compact package, the Kia Spectra5 should be on your shopping list. It represents one of the best values, with an impressive list of safety equipment for its modest price. The Spectra5 is a five-door hatchback design with a sporty attitude. It features 16-inch alloy wheels, a factory installed strut tower bar, and a fully independent sport-tuned suspension. It can seat up to five occupants with ample cargo room behind the rear seats, or the rear seats can be folded allowing much more cargo carrying capability. It is powered by a 138-hp 2.0-liter four-cylinder that is mated to a standard five-speed manual gearbox or an optional four-speed automatic transmission. Standard safety features include seat-mounted side-impact airbags and side curtain airbags.For 2009, the Kia Spectra receives standard front active headrests on all trims.
