I bought one🤑 11k$ off with rebates at 27k$ it is as the best deal for the features I've ever gotten zero miles with 3 years scratch repairs and 100k mile warranty.. Great car

Hows the mpg on the sx?

21-30 not bad at all I have one!

My blue and 2019 SXL just came off lease but the Kia K5 doesn't offer the same level of equipment so I am now driving the Sonata Limited. The surround view parking monitor on the new Sonata is a much better resolution than my previous Optima. The Optima also had active headlights than would turn with the steering wheel but missing on the Sonata. I am missing the physical buttons for accessing menus that the Optima had too. The Optima had more horsepower but this Limited seems faster than the specs indicated and is more than adequate for my needs. No rear heated seats in the Sonata Limited and the guilted leather in the Optima had more of a premium design quality. But the Sonata's interior is beautiful none the less. Both represent the best looking designs in that mid-size sedan category imo and I think offer the best values.

What is the recommended type/rating of gas to use for the 2019 Kia Optima SXL Turbo? I'm planning on potentially getting a 2019 Kia Optima SXL Turbo in blue.

The accord does not offer better interior quality

[@boostjunkie2320]

The interior in my 2013 Optima SXL is better. The center console has taken a step back.

[@yahariegreene9419]

Boost Junkie I agree. I feel like they haven’t improved much. I also had a 2013.

It has more of an Audi A6 & a BMW 5-series dashboard from 2010-2017/18
