Im very happy with my 2018 optima

I wasn't looking to buy new, than I layed eyes on my Remington Red 2018 Kia Optima. I was orihinally looking at a 2017 kia sorento and i'm very pleased with my final purchase. The 10yr 100k mile warranty keeps you at ease while you cruise around getting great gas mileage. The amount of compliments this car gets is crazy. And it's very comfortable to drive. Theres lots 9f cargo room being that the rear seats fold down flat as well as having a large trunk space. The UVO stereo menus are extremely user friendly.

Stylish

I never thought I would own a kia. However they have come a long way since their launch. I decided to buy the optima LX. It's a 2.4 liter 4 cylinder engine . Which gives me the feel and power of a 6 cylinder engine with the fuel efficiency of a 4 cylinder engine. I also get b ml ind spot detection back up camera rear cross traffic alert ...just to name a few features.. all this in a base model car. If anyone asks I will tell them to seriously consider a kia.

A sharp, fun car.

My wife and I just bought a Kia Optima and we love it. It has plenty of room, tons of power, and the options are amazing! We own a Lexus and it has many of the same options and styling for only a portion of the cost. Plus we have the peace of mind that Kia' s warranty will cover any breakdowns that we may have for the next ten years or 100,000 miles! Thank God, and thank you Peoria Kia.
