SPECTRA
THE 2006 KIA SPECTRA AND SPECTRA5
THERE’S MORE THAN ONE
NEW CAR YOU’LL LOVE
INTRODUCING THE 2006 SPECTRA AND SPECTRA5, poised and ready to hit the road.
Whether you choose the sleek Spectra 4-door sedan or the sporty, action-loving
Spectra5, you’ll get great-looking style, a hefty level of standard features and
a 5-year/100,000 kilometre Total Care Ownership Coverage* that blows away the
competition. The Spectra sedan was crowned “Best New Economy Car” in 2005 by the
Automobile Journalists Association of Canada. Both models give you a roomy interior
with an AM/FM/CD/MP3 audio system. Power windows and door locks with remote
keyless entry. We have designed a range of quality vehicles with more features, more
fun and more peace of mind for a lot less money than the competition. So check out
this year’s Spectra models. They’re two cars you can afford to love.
Spectra EX and Spectra5 EX Sport featured throughout brochure and photos may include optional accessories.

SPECTRA
NOW YOU CAN PULL UP TO THE PARTY WITH CONFIDENCE. The Spectra has all
the style and substance to make any new owner proud. Its sleek curves and
sporty details give it a distinct personality from every angle. With clear-lens
halogen headlights, front fog lights and stylish front grille, you’ll make a great
first impression. 15" tires with available alloy wheels, dual body-colour
heated power mirrors, bold fender design and body-colour door handles create an
attractive side view. And with its body-colour rear garnish with chrome accent
and available rear spoiler*, you’ll look as good leaving as you did arriving.

ALL THE RIGHT MOVES
SPECTRA
ONCE BEHIND THE WHEEL OF YOUR NEW SPECTRA, you’ll discover it’s a blast to drive.
Its 2.0-litre CVVT DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine puts out 138 horsepower — that’s
more than Toyota Corolla or Ford Focus.* On the Spectra5 EX Sport, a sport-tuned
suspension provides responsive handling. 16" alloy wheels look sharp and keep the
fun rolling along. And 4-wheel power-assisted disc brakes and ABS, you can stop all
that fun on a dime. Plus the power moon roof with tilt gives that extra touch of ambience you need to make every ride a pleasure.

ALL SET AND
READY FOR ADVENTURE
THE SPECTRA5 HAS GOT IT ALL — cool looks, sporty performance, loads of standard
features and the versatility to take you from one adventure to the next. The responsive
2.0-litre CVVT DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine delivers more horsepower than Toyota
Matrix or Ford Focus,* with your choice of a 5-speed manual transmission or available
SPECTRA5
4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. The sport-tuned independent suspension
with front and rear stabilizer bars gives you tight handling and an exhilarating ride. And to
make sure you look the part, the Spectra5 EX Sport comes standard with fog lights,
roof-mounted micro antenna and those must-have 16" alloy wheels.
