Overview
JF MY16 GT Sedan 4dr Spts Auto 6sp 2.0T Arguably one of the best-looking cars in its category, the Kia Optima is proof of the company's growing maturity. The sizable sedan is available in Si and GT form, respectively using a 138kW/241Nm 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine and a 180kW/350Nm 2.0-litre turbo connecting to a conventional six-speed auto transmission. Passengers can stretch out in the wide, long cabin and the 510-litre boot can be augmented by folding the rear seatbacks. Sat-nav is standard in both models, as are six airbags, lane-departure warning, high-speed collision mitigation, pedestrian avoidance and rear-view camera. The GT adds low-speed collision mitigation, rear cross-traffic alert and blind-spot monitoring.
