Kia has launched the all-new 2024 Morning on Monday (10th) and is now on sale. The new Morning is a facelifted model that expands customer choice with the addition of a new GT line trim and enhances driver comfort with new features.
Morning's GT Line, which is being introduced for the first time, features exclusive design elements to create a more aggressive image than the base model. The exterior features ▲ extended radiator grille and intake grille to emphasise the sporty feel, ▲ all-machined 16-inch wheels, ▲ black high-gloss side sill mouldings, ▲ rear bumper with diffuser, and ▲ GT Line emblem.
The headlamps, daytime running lights, front turn signals and centre positioning lamps are all LED as standard. Inside, a D-cut steering wheel and metal pedals give the GT Line a sensual feel.
The new Morning is the first Korean internal combustion engine light car to be equipped with Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) and Auto Hold as standard from the Signature trim. In addition, 16-inch front machined wheels and rear disc brakes, which were optional on the previous model, are now standard on the Signature trim.
We've also improved convenience with the optional Drive Wise ∥ on the Signature trim, which includes Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Restart (previous models did not). In addition, the sliding centre console armrest and Type-C USB socket, which were previously only available on higher trims, are now available on the Prestige trim to enhance customer satisfaction. All trims are also equipped with a car fire extinguisher to enhance safety.
The 1.0 petrol is priced at KRW 13.25 million, Trendy KRW 15 million, Prestige KRW 15 million, Signature KRW 17.25 million and GT Line KRW 18.2 million, while the 1.0 petrol van is priced at KRW 13 million, Trendy KRW 13 million and Prestige KRW 13.7 million.
