Amazing reliability and mileage.
The mileage and performance is tremendous. I have only had to replace normal wear and tear items such as bulbs and belts. No big item repairs. My mileage averages 40 miles per gallon, which is 12 miles above my gas powered car. Car's ride is extremely smooth for a.

It is blue very bold and big.
It is a blue 2014 Kia hybrid also I am having problems with it breaking down and also cutting off. The fuse blown out in the car had to get a new one and new battery. It is so hard finding a hybrid technician in the area because it is very few and only a hybrid technician at Kia can work on these cars very stressful.

The Kia optima hybrid is a great car to have if you care about the environment.
I love the hybrid feature, it saves money and time by saving gas in slower areas. My car also has a double sunroof which is super neat. Whoever is in the backseat can see the sky while on a long trip which can be quite enjoyable. I also like the heating and cooling feature for the front seats because it come in handy during winter and summer.

Going hybrid has been the worst decision I have made in the car buying world.
The hybrid ability of this vehicle is awful. You do not save that much gas compared to regular motor vehicles on the road today. The hassle for repairs is also painful and pocket emptying because the repair shops have to add many extra steps while working with a hybrid car.

Great car for the price so far.
Handles well with good acceleration for merging. Smooth ride at all speeds. Gets 32 to 38 mpg depending on conditions, mainly my mix of city vs highway as well as use of heat or ac. Have had an issue that was difficult to diagnose. I would get a weird battery discharge warning while driving. It would recommend that I turn off the engine but most of the time it was drivable. It did however cut the engine out on me more than once. I think it has been resolved but it happened so sporadically and could never be reproduced on purpose I cannot say for sure. It has been many months though since they last addressed this with a computer update of some kind which was covered by the dealership.

I would recommend this car. She drives well and is good on gas.
I love the features and comfort of the vehicle. It is also very quiet so people are not disrupted if you are driving during odd hours. I like the way the car drives as well, you can increase speed fast and it doesn't feel forced additionally the brakes are really good, not to hard or soft. The only difficulty I have had is with the computer. At times when it rains the computer glitches and the check engine light comes on when it is not supposed to.

Kia optima hybrid power when you need it.
Great on gas. Spacious, comfortable ride. Have not had any issues. Great acceleration for a hybrid. Plenty of room compared to other hybrids on the market. Trunk is roomy although battery takes up a lot of space in trunk. Mileage is decent considering hp in the engine. Power is there when you need it.

Unique color, love it 50/50 on recommending due to battery cost. Trunk too small
Love the extra battery. Love that it's a hybrid. Being that is has that battery it does save on gas. In general this car is awesome with gas. Don't love how expensive it is to replace one of the batteries and then a relay switch on top of it. Almost 2,000 to fix.

2014 Kia Optima EX Hybrid fully loaded & one you'll be extremely happy with!
This is my 1st Hybrid, & I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing it, although it was fully loaded & what I wanted! Leather seats, heated/cooled seats, heated steering wheel, heated rear passenger seats, navigation, panoramic sunroof, just to name a few! I love the amount of space this car has, not only for the driver & front passenger, but also in the back! The trunk space is great too! It's a smooth ride, & obviously gets great gas mileage! I couldn't have been happier with my decision!

I love the way the Kia optima drives and its eco button.
I have never had mechanical issues with my Kia optima. It drives like a brand new car and it is 6 years old. It gets great gas mileage. It has plenty of space for single people or a small family. It has good trunk space. It also has an 'eco' option to conserve energy and gas consumption.

Efficient yet annoying Kia!
My vehicle runs great! It is extremely quiet, do not even know it is running sometimes. Excellent on gas, fill up every 2-3 weeks! Do not like the interior color but it is not that big of a deal. The car sits really low to the ground so it is awful when I hit potholes.

Amazing gas mileage while looking stylish.
Great gas mileage, nice trim, comfortable. So far I have had zero problems and almost 100k miles. The air gets cold, the sound system works very well, and the ride is smooth. The heated and cooled seats are nice in the summer and winter. The radio and options are a nice touch. The trunk is a good size.

Kia optima hybrid honest review.
The only issue that I have had is that the tail light bulbs seem to burn out fairly quick. I love how reliable it is. It gets great gas mileage and rides very smooth. There is plenty of legroom for those who are tall. The key is very slim and small. The color and interior options for this car is great. I got the white with pearl that is accented with chrome with black interior. The back seat can fit 3 children’s car seats.

Power needed and failed.
I wouldn't recommend the vehicle for winter time driving. It's great for long trips in the summer time or dry conditions. It took 10 minutes to get up a hill that should have taken 30 seconds because the electric engine kept kicking on when I needed the power to spin and get traction.

Cheap oil changes compared to all the other hybrids on the market
The gas mileage is incredible and the ride is smooth. In the two years I have had the car I have only had to service one time which was a recall. Oil changes are the cheapest of all hybrids. I recommend this car to all my family and friends. It has been the most reliable car I have ever owned.

The Kia Optima Hybrid is the Best Buy
I love my Kia Optima Hybrid. It is super easy to use and is built on super modern technology. My favorite features are the hybrid technology and the backup camera. I especially love that it doesn't need to be plugged in - it charges as you go. The only problem I have had to date is needing the computer to be reset.

Suitable car for anyone on the market.
Very comfortable, quiet on the road and at home. Headlights are not very bright but that would be only downside. Very spacious and comfortable for 4+ people. Easy ride, quick gas and looks nice. Stereo is loud, and dashboard is set good looking. Overall a great car for anyone.

Great gas mileage, easy to drive.
The Kia hybrid is very reliable. I have had little to no major issues with the car since it was purchased. Gas mileage is amazing. On long car trips it needs to be filled far less frequently than a non-hybrid. The drive is very smooth and intuitive. I feel very safe in the car.
