For a few years now, Kia has steadily been improving its line-up all the way from the entry level compact car all the way to the top-of-the-line Cadenza. The Optima is Kia's mid-sized sedan entry set to take on cars like the Ford Taurus, Chrysler 200, Honda Accord, and Toyota Camry. The 2014 Kia Optima has 2 engine choices, tons of options, and some seriously great styling. The Optima has 5 different trim levels ranging in price from $21,500 to $36,300.

On the outside the Optima has some subtle styling compared to its sister car the Hyundai Sonata. But make no mistake; in a segment where every car looks like another, Kia does a nice job of separating the Optima from the rest of the pack. The headlights look great as does the strong shoulder line. The blacked-out room looks good on almost every paint color and out back the Optima has neat taillights that blend the meeting of angles.
You have 2 options when it comes to engines. The base is a 2.4 liter 4-cylinder engine making 192 HP and 181 lb-ft of torque. The more exciting engine which is on this car tested here is a 2.0 liter Turbocharged GDi engine that makes 274 HP and 269 lb-ft. of torque. The transmission is a 6-speed automatic with fuel economy numbers checking in at 20 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway.
