Miles Overview
The Optima is Kia's mid-size sedan, competing with the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, and Ford Fusion. It drives smoothly and quietly, with a comfortable ride that soaks up highway miles easily. The cabin is roomy for five, with a user-friendly infotainment system and available heated seats and steering wheel. Owners report strong reliability, with many praising the generous warranty and low running costs. Stepping up to the EX from the LX adds leather seats, a power driver seat with memory, heated front seats, blind-spot monitoring, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The 2.4L I4 makes 185 horsepower and pairs with a six-speed automatic, delivering smooth acceleration and 28 mpg combined. The EX comes with Drive Mode Select, letting you switch between Normal, Sport, and Eco to adjust throttle and shift behavior.
