A sign of KGM’s ambition to target a different audience with the Actyon can be seen with the interior. While the Torres is offered with entry- and mid-level trims (K30 and K40 in KGM parlance), the Actyon will be offered in the UK in K50 trim only, with the firm’s UK bosses basically suggesting they’ve packed it with all the kit.
The interior features a layout called ‘horizontal simplicity’, which in essence means there are two 12.3in screens in a single unit next to each other, resting atop a long shelf finished with a bit of wood-styled veneer that runs the length of the dashboard.
The steering wheel is a new shape intended to give it a more sporty feel and a better view of the instrument panel. (In the sort of inessential trivia you’ll want to remember for the 2025 Autocar Christmas quiz, it’s also the first steering wheel to feature the KGM logo in the middle.)
The large floating centre console contains the gear selector, which features a ‘crystal-type’ design that looks a bit of a Aldi alternative to the old Volvo crystal glass selectors.
The electronically adjustable seats feature heating and cooling systems and are perfectly fine and comfortable.
To give the car a bit of a sporting feel (because it’s a coupé-SUV, you see) there’s plentiful black nappa leather and red trim elements, with chunks of a carbonfibre-esque grain. It doesn’t feel entirely premium but neither does it feel like a cheap knock-off. There’s plenty of room in both the front and rear seats too.
Visibility is excellent all round thanks to the commanding and high seating position, the low bonnet and chunky wing mirrors. The rear window does taper a bit due to that coupé roofline but visibility out the back is still decent.
The infotainment system will be familiar to users of other KGM models and is perfectly decent, if a little fiddly at times. There are plenty of physical buttons on the steering wheel for some of the key controls, including a customisable favourites button that you can map particular tasks to.
Swiping down from the top of the infotainment home screen brings up a shortcut menu from which you can easily turn off the lane keeping assist and the speed limit warning. You’ll probably want to do this, because both of them are extremely eager to let you know of even the most minor of transgressions, and the bongs are not a particularly soothing tone.
