2009 Kia Spectra consumer reviews

We've own kia's since 2002 Spectra to Optima, Sedona van an very impressed with performance and durability we've been sold o. Kia they came a long way.

Great reliable, durable and efficient car. Decent performance for what it is. Mines at 238000 miles and has had no major issues. Just routine maintenance. 10/10 would recommend for a cheap lowkey daily driver :)

Have dealt with a lot of electrical issues and alignment issues parts are sometimes hard to get I've had to replace the control module to replace the v VC solenoids it's a lot of stuff I've had to do this car

Very reliable and durable car . It now (8/2020) reaches 172 miles without any major issues. Very efficient in gas even with air conditioning. And especially in highways. I am doing basic maintenance. And changing engine oil every 3-5k miles.

This is an awesome car. Reliable. Good on gas. I would love to own a car like this again. A very good car for a first car

Used as a commuter car it gets 29 mpg combined. 56 mpg on the highway w/air running during the summer. Holds 4 adults. The 2.0 liter engine performs well, just change engine oil every 5,000 miles. Great in the winter too.

The car hace completly all my neededs .I like this car because I was driving since July 2010 until May 15..I was the owner of this car but I have to stoped driving this car because someonet hit my Kia car in red light and him have not car insurance and I have only insurace liability..so I can not oay my car damage for myself..it was sad

My wife and I bought this car almost a decade ago and it has been a workhorse for us. It's driven cross country multiple times and keeps kicking. The mileage has been great and the maintenance has been minimal. While I might not call the car "sexy" by any means, it's a cute little guy with a lot of pep. It has performed better than expected for an economy car and has made me trust in the Kia brand.

Love it! Fun car good looking too! Great color great performance, it moves out! Tight and well put together. Also kias great warranty love kias!

It was a nice go to work car, put it on the highway several times going to Indianapolis, Cincy and Alabama. Get on gas wasn't very comfortable for the long distance ride. Didn't have lots of featured that the Cadenza hass.
