First Impressions

Built to Impress

With 37 years of history behind the Korando, the latest generation continues to build on its strong KGM roots while embracing modern innovation. From its commanding SUV stance to refined saloon-inspired details, the K35 is designed to impress from every angle. 

  • Black Bonnet Lettering: A bold touch that highlights its rugged personality. 
  • Black Roof Rails: Combining practicality with sleek styling, the roof rails are both functional and fashionable. 
  • Black Rear Spoiler: Adding a sporty edge, the rear spoiler enhances aerodynamics and elevates the overall design. 

The KGM Korando K35 is a statement of style, functionality, and innovation, perfectly suited for drivers who demand the best of both worlds. 

At first glance, the KGM Korando K35 stands out with its bold look and confident vibe. The blacked-out exterior pack and sleek 19” black alloy wheels give it a rugged edge while maintaining an air of sophistication - ideal for someone who wants style without sacrificing practicality. 

Every detail on the K35, big or small, feels meticulously designed to offer the very best driving experience. Its dimensions (4,450 mm x 1,870 mm x 1,629 mm) strike the perfect balance between compact manoeuvrability and spacious practicality, so whether weaving through city traffic or loading up for a family trip, the K35 adapts effortlessly to your needs. 

The K35 is available in three stunning colours - Grand White, Iron Silver, and Space Black - allowing you to choose the finish that perfectly suits your style. Whether you’re looking for a bright, classic touch or something darker and more dramatic, the K35 has you covered. 

Street-Smart Style

Korando styling sets the bar higher than ever for KGM. Originally built for the challenging roads of Korea, it sits just as confidently on the roads of Northern Ireland. Its rugged good looks combine with intelligent design to create a distinctive and functional exterior. 

  • Projection Headlamps: Smart, sharp, and intelligent projection headlamps enhance both style and visibility. 
  • Multi-Function Door Mirrors: Typically found only on luxury vehicles, the door mirrors on the K35 can fold in when you step out, and downward-facing puddle lights ensure you always see what you’re stepping into. 
  • LED Fog Lights: Attractive, integrated high-power LED fog lights are triple stacked, adding to the vehicle's high-tech, forward-looking design. 
  • 19” Black Alloy Wheels: The stylish alloy wheels perfectly complement the blacked-out exterior pack, reinforcing the K35’s commanding presence. 

Driving Experience

Power and Efficiency

The 1.5 GDI-Turbo engine is engineered for peak performance, delivering 280Nm of torque between 1,500 and 4,500 rpm, meaning you’ll enjoy smooth, powerful acceleration whenever you need it. Beyond its impressive power, the engine is eco-friendly and efficient, designed with fuel economy in mind. 

Smooth Transmissions

The K35 comes equipped with the latest Aisin 6-speed automatic transmission, ensuring quiet, seamless gear shifts while maximising fuel efficiency. If you prefer a more hands-on driving experience, there’s also a 6-speed manual gearbox available, delivering maximum driver engagement and a fun, sporty feel. 

Tailored Driving Modes

One standout feature is the drive mode system, available with the automatic gearbox. With selectable modes like NORMAL, SPORT, and WINTER, you can customise your driving experience to suit any situation. SPORT mode is particularly engaging, offering a more connected feel, while WINTER mode provides added confidence in challenging conditions. 

Smart Features for Everyday Convenience

The K35 incorporates modern technology to make driving as efficient as possible. Its Idle Stop & Go (ISG) system temporarily shuts off the engine when the car is stationary, reducing emissions and saving fuel - a feature that’s especially handy in city stop-and-go traffic. 

Whether you prioritise smooth handling, rugged reliability, or intelligent efficiency, the KGM Korando K35 delivers on all fronts, making it a dynamic and versatile choice for any driver.
