You can just initialize your property with the value from constructor:

class Car(speed: Int) {
    var speed: Int = speed
        get() = field
        set(value) {
            field = value
        }
}

You cannot write getters/setters inside of the constructor, you can do the following:

1. Create variable inside class whose value taken from constructor.

class Car(speed: Int) {
    var speed = speed
        get() = field 
        set(value) {
            field = value
        }
}

2. Use @JvmField annotation to restrict compiler not to auto-generate getters/setters and implement one yourself

class Car(@JvmField private var speed: Int) {
    fun getSpeed() = speed
    fun setSpeed(value: Int) { speed = value }
}

If your Car is just a data holder, you could make it a data class, which generates a bunch of methods for you, see this example:

data class Car(var speed: Int)

You can use a parameterized constructor and the setters as follows

fun main() {
    // use a parameterized constructor
    var car = Car(240)
    println("${car.speed} km/h")

    // use the setter
    car.speed = 120
    println("${car.speed} km/h")
}

That would output:

240 km/h
120 km/h

Syntax of property –

var <propertyName>[: <PropertyType>] [= <property_initializer>]
    [<getter>]
    [<setter>]

Here, property initializer, getter and setter are optional. We can also omit property type if it can be inferred from the initializer. The syntax of a read-only or immutable property declaration differs from a mutable one in two ways: starts with val instead of var, and does not allow a setter.

In kotlin, val is used as only for read means getter and var is used as for not getter() and setter()

class Company {
var name: String = "Defaultvalue"
}

The above code is equivalent to the below code

class Company {
    var name: String = "defaultvalue"
        get() = field                     // getter
        set(value) { field = value }      // setter
}

You can also use kotlin data class if you want to hold data in your Car class. so you no need to define getter and setter.

data class Car(var speed: Int)
