Miles Overview
The 2009 Optima is Kia's mid-size family sedan, a roomy four-door that competes with the Camry and Accord. It's a comfortable, easy-driving sedan that handles rain and snow well, though it's not a sporty car. The cabin offers generous trunk space and folding rear seats for larger loads, plus comfortable front seats. Owners report the Optima needs little maintenance over the years, though some have noted brake and door handle issues. Standard cloth seats and steel wheels mark the LX as the base trim, with the EX adding power features and alloy wheels. The 2.4L engine and automatic transmission make for relaxed commuting, with 25 mpg combined from 22 mpg city/32 mpg highway. The LX skips the EX's available sunroof and upgraded audio, keeping the price low for budget-focused buyers.
