Best all around vehicle I've ever owned
This car is the most fuel efficient and reliable vehicle I've ever owned averaging 38 mpg while comfortably seating my family of 5. The Kia Optima was also the most stylish sedan in its class in our opinion. The families most favorite features where the panoramic sunroof and the heated rear seats.

Love my 2013 KIA Optima
I test drove a lot of cars before buying this one in Arizona. I bought it because it had the smoothest ride, fast acceleration, comfort, was fun to drive and its style. There is a slight hesitation when kicking the speed up which freaked out my husband. We bought a Serento a little over a year ago. My husband drives the Optima because he has the longer commute. At first he complained. I love the car, but he won?t give it back. Why! He was gassing up his little pickup twice a week, now he gasses up every other week. It does have huge blind spots and I agree the passenger seat is too low. I hear they fixed that with the 2014. I do wish it had warning system for that blind spot like the Sorento. The Sorento is great, but I prefer the Optima.

Great mileage and surprising performance!
Great performance and mileage. I had considered the Ford Fusion Hybrid and this car offered several features that would have been only available in the Titanium Edition at a premium price. I have a car with Panoramic Roof, Navigation, heated and cooled leather seats and combined mileage in the 34 mpg range. Much better hat the Mercedes E 500 i traded in.

Owner for 130000 milles
The first 100000 miles I had no problem bought the car new off the lot. After 110000 milles had to replace the votlage regulator for the hybrid system. 100000 miles later I'm replacing the hybrid computer. Was told it should be good for 200000 miles if not more at the time of purchase. We got all the bells and whistles with this car. Heated and acrionditioned seats heated steering wheel, best sound system you name it it was in the package at the time of purchase. I wanted to trade it in and all I could get was 2000 fo go towards the next car. Very dissipated with Kia. In 2013 it was 36000 car just 4 years and 130000 miles later it's a 2000 car.

The most reliable car I own is my Lexus 200 GS
The optima hybrid is a good commuter car with a great warnranty. It is stylish and sleek. It has pretty good pick on the freeway. The gas mileage is great. With my other car I would fill up once a week. Now I fill up once every two weeks.

Best hybrid value
This car has the comfort and feel of a luxury car for a price of a regular car, great mileage for a hybrid sedan, extremely quiet and soundproof, very reliable tech inside of it. Highly recommended.

Amazing car
I loved everything about the car. I'm really into music and the sound system was amazing. There was a TON of trunk space and a lot of room for passagers too. Great car. Would recommend to anyone.

Love this car. Style is so sleek for a 4 door.
great looking car for the price! Great mileage when traveling. Although mind did not come with premium sound. The stock stereo sounds amazing!
