The most economical vehicle I have ever purchased.

The Optima has more so many wonderful features for the price. Considering my last car is 17 years old this is a tremendous elevation of happiness.

The best car I've had so far!

I love the quality and drive of the Kia Optima. It is very spacious inside and has a lot of space in the trunk; perfect for an on-the-go mom. I also love the quality of the calls via bluetooth.

First Car

I love the sporty look of the car. It was either a Kia Optima or a Hyundai Sonata, and the Sonata looked boring.

So far so good... great on gas and handles very good. Have already gone on 2 long road trips and the car has performed tremendously well. I would tell others to try a KIA.

2017 Kia Optima Is a great mid-size care

Only put just under 300 miles on it so far, but I was very impressed with the power it gets from a 4-cylinder engine, and it got great fuel mileage on the drive back home.
