Kia is the way to go for features those expensive vehicles have.
Lots of features for the price, comfortable seating, very room if someone is tall, good on gas, very reliable, very happy with the car so far. It was my first Kia and I have always bought Toyotas in the past. My husband had trouble after his accident and this was one vehicle he could fit in.

2020 Kia optima brand new.
No issues at all. Very comfortable to drive and just ride in. Lots of room to move and a large trunk to store or something. Very reliable and trustworthy. Lane assist and the other safety features are a nice touch. I don't really have anything else to say about it.

Kia 2020, amazing family vehicle.
Has no issues at all whatsoever. Amazing family van. Great mileage and suitable for the whole family. A must-buy vehicle for sure. Would recommend it to anybody. Very affordable and great for this year's model. Kia is a brand that I think everyone should give a chance.

Great car everything about it is great.
No problems I love everything about this car. Kia gives you the most bang for your buck over all other car dealers. I got all the bells and whistles in my car for a very reasonable price. I love my leather seats, my panoramic sunroof, leather wrapped steering wheels and much more.

The color is very nice we had a very blue.
Performance pretty good and decent, pretty good in gas and smooth ride on the highway and very quiet and isolated from the noises, the prices are good too and the dealers are nice people by Stevens Creek Kia they made the experience very nice and not too complicated.

I love my Kia!! No problems/ comfortable/ CarPlay!!
I absolutely love the comfort in my car, it is very relaxing to be honest. Also the CarPlay is very handy for when I am driving. I have never been a text and drive person so the car play is very necessary got me. I have not had any problems since I purchased my vehicle. Only problem was my tire blew out.

Love the Kia optima for our family of 4.
Love this vehicle! The drive is so smooth and quiet. The driver and passenger seats have both cooling and heating features. The backseat is very spacious. It comes equipped with the latest technology such as alerting if there is a vehicle in the blind spot or if you are swerving. Absolutely love this car for our family of 4.

Killer deal for your money.
The vehicle comes equipped with a top of the line sound system which is harman kardon. The ex specific trim has heated leather seats and competitive mpg around 35-40. The hybrid increases this number around 10 plus compared to regular ex model. Drive is smooth and has little to no maintenance issues.

120,000 miles and no issues.
The Kia makes noise sometimes and it speeds up really slow. I love my Kia. It has a great paint job and it had low miles when I bought it used. I used to have another Kia that made it to 120,000 miles. This was extremely surprising to me. I loved that car and the reliability of that car made me want to buy another Kia.

Kia, good for the price!
I enjoy the car. I wish I had more horsepower. The ride is nice and the interior is comfortable. It is a sleek looking ride. The price was decent so I am happy with that. I enjoy the features that come with the car stock or you can add what you want so you are happy.
