Sporty, reliable, and worth the money.

Outside of a few repairs it has performed flawlessly. The leather seats cracked well before 60kmi, and we're not covered under warranty. Multiple paint chips at the very edge of the hood, but overall very satisfied. I'm hard on my cars and this one has performed very well.

Love it so far

Just purchased my first Kia about a week ago and must I say I’m in love! The only thing I think that could be better is the quality of the stereo but other than that I love it!!!!!!

One of the better styled cars out there.

Have had my Optima EX for 5 years now and no major problems -- very comfortable -- smooth ride -- just the right options for me -- better warranty than most other cars -- liked the outside and inside styling --

Love my Kia

This vehicle has been very reliable since I’ve owned it. Never any problems. Gets great gas mileage and it’s pretty comfortable on long trips. The only issue I have is the blind spot on this vehicle but other than that it’s a great car.

Excellent car for the money.

It's a nice car for the price point. You can tell it's not a long lasting car but I would buy one again. It sounds a little tin like when driving. A couple of items broke earlier then expected but it was covered under there warranty which I find to have been very good so far

Very reliable vehicle.

I travel the state of WI for work. I now need an SUV for my work. This Optima has been outstanding. It's automatic but you can also shift it manually if you desire. It gets 30 MPG, I've replaced the battery, tires and wiper blades and changed the oil on a regular basis.
