Editor's Overview
Still attractive after all these years and now fitted with abundant safety technology, the 2019 Kia Optima makes the strong case that sedans are not dead. Although four people fit with ease inside Kia's midsize sedan and there's plenty of room in the trunk for luggage, the Optima is sized perfectly for easy around-town driving.

Buy an optima in upstate New York.
The car drives very smooth. It is very reliable, but it takes about 41$ to fill the tank up.
The backseat is bigger than my 2017 Sportage was. There is so much room but it is also only a 5 person car.
If I were to recommend anything to add to this car would be to get snow tires. Reason being is that the car sits very low to the ground and makes it a bit hazy on the snowy days.
Kia/optima style and performance.
My first Kia/optima was purchased in 2013, I love the performance, exterior style is excellent and the warranty was one of the best I have ever had. I just purchased the 2019 Kia/optima and it is just as reliable and the style is sporty and all the new features are excellent.
It is a economically priced car and runs smoothly in all weather types.
I like the vehicle because it runs smoothly and turns well. It drives smoothly in bad weather. I like the interior and the backup camera is very useful. I would never buy a car without one again.
