I love all of the features! This car is a very good value. I just wish it had automatic seats and an automatic review mirror. I’m not sure what i would compare it to, but the steering wheel reminds me of a mustang!

October 9, 2020Great car, Bought brand new. Had for almost 5 years and it was a great commuter. All miles I ever put on this vehicle were nothing but highway, also great on gas as well.
October 29, 2024I really love how the car handles with braking and turning, it drives very smoothly, and the manufacturing of the car is top tier.
March 22, 2024Love my 2019 Kia Optima S. I like the simplicity of the interior as well as the stylish exterior. Great everyday driver, very comfortable (I’m 5’-9”). The only knock I have on this car is the engines power. Lacks a bit compared to other cars in its class, but it wasn’t enough for me to stay away from. I’m a stay at home Dad with 2yr old twins and this suits us just fine. It’s definitely a budget car and I feel it was a good value.
March 17, 2023Great value. Little body roll in corners. Quiet, smooth ride for the most part. Great safety features. Love the interior and has plenty of cargo space. Gas mileage isnt bad but could be better. A little slow to accelerate. But overall I love it, Great value for the price! Feels like Im driving a more luxurious car.
October 14, 2020Great Car A Joy to drive. Tons of safety features. Connected smart phone for hands free calls and using Google Maps as GPS through the Dash Screen.
March 12, 2024I love it so far, the only problem is the tire pressure light is on and was on when it got delivered to me.
May 10, 2021Great car! Nice features and worth the price! Very happy with my purchase!!!
