2011 Kia Optima EX

[@blacuraRL]

LOVE the stitched dash...... very high end stuff!

[@awesomo1598]

Dang he had his hands off the steering wheel for 7 seconds at 5:31

[@cannonballkid]

KIA stepped their game up. Very nice looking car.

[@nelsonamoreno6841]

All the kia optimas are excellent cars LX , EX turbo GDI or GDI only smooth for drive and good power nice models

[@shanaadams6226]

I got mines and I love it 😍

[@BeesonsCars]

Really old video but it popped up in my recommendations. But, 9.4 seconds is VERY slow for this car. My friend has a 2011 Sonata SE 2.4 and it gets about 7.2-7.5 consistently with the same motor and transmission. It’ll also do 130.

[@zedlopez8267]

Nah mine is around 7.0-7.5 even with eco mode it wont take 9 sec,maybe in a very high altitude,,

[@babyswithrabies]

yeah that's very slow. 7.8-8.0 is what most publications like consumer reports and such got out of it. so unless hes in denver or something i'm not sure where he got 9.4 seconds.

[@AlmightyUniden]

@windowspczone Yes Voks and other brands all have a manual option. It's just that the automatic is more of a premium option and it's what testers look for too see if the hear shift is done properly.

[@Ronaldo_Football-Cr7]

Finally better sense prevailed, Thanks to Peter (Kia CEO) for redefining Kia and restoring it's reputation. I had a Kia Sportage, that I hated as much I love this Optima got today. It's a well built car with so many features, that stands up and in some cases supercede camery, acord etc..

[@hjlee6192]

@TechGeek95 it depends on what you like. optima is more sporty with more tech. they're basically the same engine wise so you should just look at pictures of interior/exterior and take your pick from there

[@Flightline_]

@KatiushaVN4 *correction---your TSX goes 0-60 in 8.7 seconds, not much faster then the 8.9 seconds in the 4 cyl. in the optima's, and the V6 is faster by 1 second. I think we know who the FAIL is here.

[@Taureg96]

Ive seen many reviews say its just under 8 seconds to 60 for the base motor

[@JamaicanMeCrazy]

i just watched a video on the new impreza and would u believe that i much prefer this KIA. The world is gonna ennnnnnnd

[@dannnsss8034]

The Impreza is a very low bar

[@Jay20370214]

AMEN to that brotha, Rep for the 2.4's out there average is 7.8

[@Thereisalwaysmore]

I hope you guys will do a review on american cars soon

[@MrWoodyissoawesome]

I love the exterior and interior on the 2013 Malibu better but I love the features the Optima has.

[@larryklein3672]

Inactive Inactive the Malibu is nice but agree the Optima is really nice inside. I have seen a Malibu up close and personal because a year or so ago I rear ended one in my pickup and totaled both cars.

[@luism8612]

Malibu feels like a cheap rental car

[@urafudgehead]

@happyturtle18 A V6 is not offered on the Optima. It is a turbo 4 cylinder.

[@hjlee6192]

@BetterDayz19 there is a manual but its on the lx and the lower standard of the ex i believe.

[@RossZ32]

damn! impressive! very nice car

[@tinafelix2129]

Where outdoor plug in is located

[@garrickkinney9916]

I want to buy a used one it has 203,000 miles. Is it still a good car?

[@Howardinbaltimore]

for how much

[@NeutralGenericUser]

What's the music @ 00:16???? Please someone help me find the name! :(

[@ngsaytar]

although is sonata sibling..but somehow i prefer kia more :P

[@Rome1017Lights]

You said a hybrid and a Turbo for another time, when is that time?

[@Fuchsiababe]

Does the guy who did this review drive one of the cars he compares this car to? Anyway I think its a very attractive especially us college students who don't really NEED a lexus Or BMW just to get to and from school which is a 30 min daily drive.

[@maxim430]

You're a college student and have money for a new car?? Something is very wrong here

[@orion4mm]

wow alot of car videos lately

[@bensitton8883]

How do you know if it a EXOr SE

[@TechGeek95]

Is this or the Hyundai Sonata better?

[@zungaloca]

it has the 5 7 10 year guarantee

[@Flightline_]

@KatiushaVN4 Your facts are sadly wrong. The acura TSX first off is a Small sedan, This kia optima is a Midsized sedan. Your acura goes 0-60 in 7.7 seconds with the 201 HP 4 cylinder engine, while the acura's V6 is 6.4 seconds with a 280 HP Engine. The Kia here has a 4 cylinder 0-60 of 8.9 seconds due to its larger size with the 192 HP engine, and the V6 at 274 HP goes 0-60 in 6.4 seconds. Now do you see the difference?

[@bvedant]

Why am I so intrigued by this car...

[@dannnsss8034]

Because the optima was deemed an objectively better car than a BMW 3 Series

[@braydenmartindale]

I still sorta like the Sonata better, it looks alot more classy and higher end.

[@sahilsvision]

No manual? ??

[@NeXMaX]

@MegaMaster456 if they have the diesel. I'd still buy the turbo.

[@amusa07]

Can you do the new Lexus in your next video? Thank you

[@reck101101]

do a review of the reasonably priced car

[@Flightline_]

@KatiushaVN4 its actually 8.9 seconds, and that's the 4 cylinder, V6 0-60 is 6.5 seconds and gets almost identical fuel economy, so no fail here.

[@Flightline_]

@urafudgehead sorry, that's what I meant, thanks.

[@shodas5497]

My dad has the same car brand

[@Mejevoli]

9.4 seconds is a LIE. It's under 8 seconds. Don't believe me? Check other reviews -_-

[@VelarOW]

Mejevoli they do their testing in San Francisco, higher elevation so the car doesn’t breath correctly. This affects it dramatically because it's a 4 cylinder, it has a lot of weight on its shoulders and its breathing is important to its performance.

[@zungaloca]

9.4 secs lie its 6.x sexc turbo 2.0 274

[@VelarOW]

zungaloca this is a non turbo version..

[@bennychan723]

4:05 LOL

[@David6000-0]

Now Hyundai is a cheaper kia

[@wasim413]

Hello

[@lotsblocks]

if you want a vehicle to last. dont buy a Kia

[@darkenergon6655]

lotsblocks why :(

[@NeXMaX]

Don't buy the shitty diesel. Buy the turbo.

[@Nathanpatel1]

First?

[@DUNEATV]

Boring!
