2004 Kia Spectra GS Trim Overview

The 2004 Kia Spectra comes in a hatchback as well as a sedan, and the 2004 Spectra GS is the base model version of the 5-door hatch.  The cargo space holds up to 11.6 cubic feet and rear seats split-fold for extra room.  The 2004 Spectra GS carries a 124-hp, 1.8-liter I4 under its hood, with a 5-speed manual transmission or optional 4-speed automatic.  It is similar to the LS sedan in terms of features, coming standard with air conditioning, a tachometer, intermittent wipers, lighted entry, a CD player, and dual front airbags.  Power windows, locks, and mirrors are not standard.

Leather trim, a CD changer, and cruise control are some of the limited options available on the 2004 Spectra GS hatchback.  The affordability of the Spectra is what attracts owners, and its 22/32 mpg makes it a good commuter, while its compact size improves city maneuverability.  Better materials and more power are on the wish list for many drivers.  They get their wish with the release of a mid-year 2004.5 Spectra model.
