The Kia Optima is among the best in its class. It's better than the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and Volkswagen Passat. It is quite fast, really comfortable and even a few spectators.

Let's start there. While VW seems to follow Toyota and Honda deep into the land of sharp, innovative design is bland, Kia and Hyundai parents have brought to the masses. Bodywork Optima is unique but conservative.

Now, of course, our Optima is a special press-fleet, which means that some of the box-sheet option left. But even at $ 35,275, the interior is very well designed and even better executed. It exudes quality as high-spec Volkswagen without Teutonic minimalist. Fit and finish are world class and most of the material that would not be out of place in a car costing more.

The interior is far from the cabin excited and cheap in the past. Intuitive layout with large buttons on the center stack, and the curvature of the dashboard gives some personality. In some cases, the design reminds me of Saab, which may or may not be a good thing. Materials are very nice and soft touch throughout, including tricot fabrics for the headliner.

We are familiar with this car courage because we have a long-term Hyundai Sonata 2.0T few years ago. It is strong with 274-hp and six-speed automatic crack off shift fast enough to make merging on the highway or through a snap.

SX stiffer suspension does not come at the expense of how well drown out the bumps, but still there is some give tuned. As Greg notes, electric power steering numbness in either tighten center with more angle adjustable and has a decent weight, too. The angle can be taken with a decent amount of aggression with Optima feeling well planted with not much body roll.
