EX added air conditioning, remote keyless entry, and power windows/locks/heated mirrors. Both models came with a tilt steering wheel, height-adjustable driver seat, and CD audio system. ABS was optional on EX and unavailable on LX. Both the base LX and uplevel EX sedans came with standard front side airbags, curtain side airbags, and 4-wheel disc brakes. A 5-speed manual transmission was standard, a 4-speed automatic optional. The only engine was Elantra’s 138-hp 2.0-liter 4-cyl. The 2004.5 Spectra was based on the Elantra platform of corporate parent Hyundai. The early 2004 came in Base, GS, LS, and GSX trim, while the 2004.5 came in LX and EX guise. If you see a 2004 Kia Spectra advertised, you can tell if it’s the old model or the new one by the trim level. However, we start this generation at 2005 to avoid confusion with the old design. Oddly, the company still called it a 2004 model (the last of the outgoing version was also a 2004), and sometimes the new car was referred to as a “2004.5” model. Kia released a redesigned Spectra sedan in spring 2004 with new styling, more power, and additional safety features.
