Great car

Great car, had a 2014 model upgraded to the 2018. Kia is doing a great job with all their models , they keep making them nicer every year. I would have gotten the Stinger if I could afford it and if the wife would have said yes. Overall I have purchased three Kia's 2010 Forte, 2014 Optima and a 2018 Optima. Will keep purchasing!

Stylish and great ride!

I am especially happy with the roominess of this car. I didn't think I would go to anything other than a SUV but it is easy for us to get in and out of. love the safety features on this car, has already saved me from side scraping my husbands car that was parked in an area of our drive that he usually doesn't park! Love all the extras built into our car!
