Its not to long, and has a sporty feel to it. It handles smooth and performs great in all weather conditions.

A Stylish choice

looking for a dependable and stylish car for my wife and myself. I own also a new Toyota Camry and older Mercedes and 1989 BMW 325i convertible. I enjoy driving a quality car that I can depend upon and the Optima fit the bill

Luxury and Style for a Great Price!

The 2018 Kia Optima S provides luxury along with a sporty edge. It handles great both on the highway and in the city. I was also pleased to discover that it offers great gas mileage as well as all the advanced technology that provides safety and comfort when I am on the road.

Nice car for the money

I opted for the Sport version which I love. Only things I would say are negative would be no CD player (I like to listen to audiobooks) and the trunk opening is a little skinny. Drives great though!
