The new KX3 is equipped with a second-generation Gamma 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, paired with an IVT intelligent continuously variable transmission, and features a front MacPherson and rear torsion beam semi-independent suspension chassis. Below is the relevant information: Parameters: The Kia KX3 measures 4270/1780/1630mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2590mm. Comparing real car photos with the KX3 concept car reveals that the production version has undergone some detail changes in design, including modifications to the internal structure of the headlight assembly, which now features lens-equipped headlights. The taillights still come with LED light groups, but their internal design has also been altered.

I drive the older model Kia KX3, and the 'three major components' refer to the engine, transmission, and chassis—the core parts of the vehicle. The engine is a 1.5L naturally aspirated unit, delivering smooth power output that’s sufficient for daily commutes without being fuel-hungry, though it’s a bit slow off the line. The transmission is a 6-speed automatic, shifting quickly without any noticeable jerkiness, making highway driving effortless. The chassis features an independent suspension system, providing stability on rough roads and solid cornering support, which enhances driving safety. Routine maintenance is straightforward, and with these three components combined, the urban driving comfort is quite decent, though highway noise is a bit noticeable. Regular inspections are crucial to ensure longevity. I’ve driven it for three years without major issues, making it a reliable choice among entry-level SUVs.
