Great car for the price

2019 Kia Optima SXL, very good value for this sedan. Turbo is sufficient, but leaves a little to be desired....Kia is definitely getting more refined, over the years. Have driven the car across the states and have had no issues - did have a flat but, no car issues....really like the car - being replaced by the K5 (smaller trunk than the Optima?). BMW owner was impressed with it - especially when we compared vehicles, options and then pricing!

Great Car

The Optima is a great car. This is the second one I have owned and have not been disappointed. The car is comfortable and easy to drive. The 2.4 L engine has plenty of power and very good gas mileage. I get 33.5 mpg on the highway. They look good, handle very well, and are very reliable. The only negative thing I can think of, is they are a little noisy inside. Not bad, but could use more sound deadening material. It is a great car overall.

ALWAYS BEEN A GREAT CAR KIA OPTIMA SXL

The Kia optima sxl is by far the best car for its price tag. The LED LIGHTS make my car look looks more sportier and the daytime LED LIGHTS are a big plus because the other drivers can see your car.
