Year to Year Changes
2005 Kia Sephia/Spectra:
A Spectra5 hatchback joined the line in one trim level, as did an SX-trim sedan. Both came with EX equipment but added sporty touches, including leather-wrapped steering wheel, firmer suspension, and 16-inch wheels.
2006 Kia Sephia/Spectra:
The base LX sedan was dropped, while the SX and Spectra5 gained cruise control as standard equipment.
2007 Kia Sephia/Spectra:
A subtle facelift marks Kia's compact car for 2007. Besides a modest exterior freshening, Spectra's '07 update includes revised interior trim, a modified dashboard and center console, and a standard plug-in for digital audio players.
2008 Kia Sephia/Spectra:
The 2008 Kia Spectra and Spectra5 were largely unchanged.
