2018 Kia Optima consumer reviews

Great car...this is my second Optima SXL. The dealership is very professional and transparent. From Sales, Finance, Service, and Management....very consistent, reliable, and courteous. The same for the car. Stylish and the Performance is unexpectedly sporty....m

This is the third optima I've owned since 2012. I am so impressed with this car I am going to continue buying them. Because I have had such good luck my son also purchase one.

This car is extraordinary. A lot more than I really expected. Its construction is solid and denotes safety for the driver. The interior of the vehicle gives the impression of a totally luxurious car. Its leather seats provide absolute comfort which is favorable when you have to drive long distances. The cabin is incredibly quiet, the outside noise is almost completely isolated providing the opportunity to enjoy music or talk on the phone without discomfort. The information provided by the UVO system in this car is extremely beneficial. You have everything you need to make your trip with all the information you need, from directions, points of interest, etc. In addition, the convenience of the mechanical conditions of the vehicles are constantly monitored by the factory and immediate assistance if you need it while you are on the road. The exterior, in my case is a black car, looks admirably elegant. The combination of front and rear lights give a touch of distinction that makes me feel very good. Undoubtedly, an excellent product of KIA.

I traded in my 2012 Kia Optima to get into a new 2018. The 2012 was an SX Turbo and while I did downgrade somewhat with the Optima S (it doesn't have turbo), I didn't really need the Turbo anyway. This car is plenty fast without it! My new car is comfortable, quiet, rides smooth, has a great sound system and I love that it has Apple car play. No need for navigation. You just tell Maps where you want to go and it shows up on the screen and directs you where you need to go. There is even an app called UVO, so when I park, I open the app click on parking minder. It stores where I parked the car and will guide me back to it in case I forgot where I parked. I love this car and I got a great deal on it!

Ranks better than Hyundai Sonata, Nissan Altima and Pontiac G6. Comfortable, Good on gas, and the Optima S dispells the rumor that the Kia Optima is a female?s car. The Optima S is very masculine.

Great car! Packages are designed to fit you needs without useless options you don't want. Very comfortable and great gas mileage. Worst part of experience was having to come up with 25 words before hitting enter

Have plenty of leg room All controls are At your fingertips Sunroof is unbelievable leather seats very comfortable & soft highly recommend should be checked out.

Love the style and look of the car and the tech. I wish it had a sunroof with the amount I pay, but that's something I can deal without! Overall a great reliable car.

This is my third time buying a Kia optima. I love the stylish look plus its meets all my needs commuting and for my family.

My 2018 Kia Optima S is designed with care. I love the maroon color that glistens in the sun real nice. The panoramic roof is ideal for the kids when we go on long rides. There is a ton of room in the truck, and plenty of room inside the car. The seats are all half leather, half cloth and I love that because I hate burning my legs in the summer when a car has all leather. The cloth is black and the material is stain resistant.. which is nice having 3 kids. The steering wheel comes with tilt, the shift knob is leather and my seat is electronic. It also adjusts the pressure in the seat which is great because I have back problems. The Android Auto and UVO come in handy. Very simple and easy to use. The bluetooth and speaking to the car is beyond excellent. My 2014 Kia would have issues understanding me and I couldn't have the window down, but not with this car. I can have my window down all the way and the moon roof open and my fiance can hear every word I say without cutting out or background noise. I love how all of my controls are on my steering wheel also. I have a system in my car, so I needed room for my bass speakers. I def got all the room I need with this car. My mileage is better than expected too. I get about 35mpg highway and 30 city, which is good because I travel for work. The car does sit low and I love the looks of it, however, it could get dangerous in places where there are massive pot holes. The only downside is it is harder to steer than my 2014. It is a bit tight but I bought this car brand new, so I think once she is broken in she'll be fine. All in all, this car gets a 5 star rating from me. I love it and I would def but another one. I recommend this car to anyone looking for performance, comfort and reliability! You won't be disappointed.
