@neorick27 8 лет назад

This is a hoax. I went to the Kia dealer, paired my phone to the car, said " call Melissa Erickson" and It didn't work. Haha. Good review Dave

@everymandriver 8 лет назад

+neorick27 We both got a good laugh at your comment. Thanks.

@neorick27 8 лет назад

Ha-ha.

@prowarslamable 8 лет назад

Dave I have to say your reviews are impeccable, always improving and objective and a quite the comedian. 100% Professional Review.

@ekskog15 7 лет назад

Nice video! I love the idea of PiP combining in-car view, showing Melissa and you chatting as well as road view. Nice and interesting. Great job, Dave! Best greeting from faraway... Poland :)

@mauriciopalma6251 8 лет назад

Great job Dave, I bought this car and it is fantastic. I really like your videos, greetings from Mexico City.

@vdub5818 8 лет назад

FYI down by the aux and usb inputs the bottom of the compartment is a wireless charging pad. New android phones work without anything being done at all but iphones need a wireless charging case. My Note5 charged on our test drive. These really are incredibly nice with features like laser guided CC, blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning, wireless charging, quilted nappa leather, 8" navi, massive panoramic sunroof, 360 cam, heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated fronts and heated rears, harmon kardon sound system, adaptive headlights, etc. Crazy any, let alone all, of those features being packed into a Kia. We are still torn on it because it is a lot of money at $37,000ish. However our local dealer is offering a literal lifetime warranty with no mileage cap. So it makes the idea of a $500+ a month payment seem alot more digestible.

@npo64 7 лет назад

I love your reviews! I just bought a 2016 kia optima on Wednesday, 12/28. So far I love it and it's my 3rd Kia!

@ItsLuwee 4 года назад

Really? How is your car doing? I am thinking about buying a used one.

@mike479 8 лет назад

Great review as always. I recently traded in my 2011 Optima LX+ for a very lightly used 2015 Optima EX Lux just before the 2016's came out. I absolutely love the interior in the 16 especially with the quilted Napa leather. I noticed how the driver information display in the cluster is the same as my 2015, but now features a digital speedometer, a feature I really wish the '15 had. I feel like Kia did really well with the upgrades and changes with the car overall. The styling is rather toned down and definetly nowhere near as striking as the original, but retains a handsome look. Now, if only their dealership service was up to par with their products....

@johnr2632 6 лет назад

Ok, I subscribed. Watched a few of your reviews... always informative. I am thinking of buying the Optima. This helped

@mykullee 8 лет назад

The fuel economy numbers are only possible when you drive gently... whatever EPA advertised numbers, expect about 1-2 MPG below for city driving. For highway, I'd say about the same if not better if you cruise a lot and not pass people often.

@Fouetzky 6 лет назад

I have had this car for nearly 2 years with the 2.4L (EX Tech) and it is very fuel efficient! I would have to say I stick around 28 MPG (combined) during summer, and just under 25 during winter (I live in Canada). I can get near to 34MPG on the highway which is better than my old Forte! Best car I ever had and for under CAD $450 per month on a 48 month rental. Very good deal! Great review by the way!!! It really helped with my decision making. I made my own review on my channel! 😊

@bluered5664 4 года назад

You still like it?

@emspirit 8 лет назад

@liweojdc6017 8 лет назад

Hi Dave, great job and great review. My only question with those new smart car especially the push button start WHAT IF the start button does not work, is there alternate way to start the car? Thanks!

@davidzavala337 8 лет назад

very nice review Dave, one suggestion I got is to test the bare bones, basics model. not everyone has the cash to get the top modules, so is always good to see how much do you get for the least amount of money. The heated seats, we'll I live in Socal so it's something that I would never used, now ventilated yes but they always comes in the highest trim. Also speedometer should at 100mph max, everyone has 160 and it's just waste dashboard space since I will never go past 90, tires won't even take you past 130, that's why I like digital dashboards, your customized the way it better suits your needs, like I'll get rid of the tachometer. Mugs, we'll kia/hyundai always have had issues with this, so when looking at mom's I always look at the city and minus 1, that will be your real mpgs.

@happytrails1963 7 лет назад

@teda2023 8 лет назад

Can you do a review between the 2016 Subaru Legacy and 2016 Kia Optima, I'll be waiting.

@lukelarssen7072 4 года назад

how do you compare it with 2016 sonata?

@peppermd 7 лет назад

Great review as always and I like the chemistry between you and Melissa. Does the wireless charger also connect you to android auto? I want to get in my car, throw the phone on the charger and instantly start controlling it through the navigation screen. Is that possible?

@peppermd 7 лет назад

Just learned the phone has to be plugged in in order for android auto to work.

@PunxsutawneyDave 8 лет назад

Love the husband/wife interaction. The one thing I wish Mr. Erickson would have talked about was how the car does in the weather he had it in. Did it do ok? Would he have wished for AWD? That perspective is near priceless I think.

@everymandriver 8 лет назад

+PunxsutawneyDave It was above average in the weather.

@aaronjumani9973 8 лет назад

Great Review!!

@joshcs1 8 лет назад

Random, but how does the horn sound? I had the 2013 SXL and the horn and alarm were embarrassing to say the least. Just wondering.... Awesome review btw!!!

@everymandriver 8 лет назад

+Josh Sanders I don't remember but I can start adding horn sounds - Dave, Everyman Driver "Working for you!"

@875daily 8 лет назад

how is the wind noise and road noise in the 2016? My 2012 SX is horrible and i'm looking to get rid if it.. I've heard that the new 2016 is better built and suspension is nicer and not and rough.. My 2012 is horrible in all aspects of wind, road noise and i feel every bump with suspension...

@fanatixtc 7 лет назад

Tony F I bought a 2016 sxl today, it's very quiet. bumps aren't felt much at all. I had a 2012 sx force coup it was pretty rough. so far I'm loving it

@Ryan_Powers25 8 лет назад

I never thought you had a sense of humor. This video changed my mind. You're a cute couple! Yeah, the Optima is the best looking sedan in its class in my mind. However, I'd still probably pick the new Camry over this because of its bullet proof reliability and a higher resale value. But if I was to ever lease a vehicle again, it would be the Optima with the 1.6 engine.

@solesk01 8 лет назад

Melissa is awesome. Do you think the optima is more comfortable up front than the outback?

@everymandriver 8 лет назад

+solesk01 Absolutely!

@TheRaptor1964 8 лет назад

excellent video.

@TheMichaelRN 8 лет назад

can you have the sxl model without the panoramic sunroof? i just think that huge sunroof is adding too much weight which makes the fuel economy average at best despite having turbo.

@davidlyday7373 8 лет назад

The LX 1.6T is faster and cheaper then the 2.0T but it won't have the leather or sun roof

@bobherrmann1510 8 лет назад

The sunroof frame is carbon fiber to reduce weight. I would imagine the mpg penalty with the sunroof is about 0.00000000000001 mpg 😏

@everymandriver 8 лет назад

+Imatechguy Thank you - Dave, Everyman Driver "Working for you!"

@alqumaro 8 лет назад

Dave, would you choose this car over the Accord with similar specs? Thanks!

@everymandriver 8 лет назад

+alqumaro Yes I would!

@kg1329 8 лет назад

+alqumaro hey I got 15 accord, and if you like hard not comfy ride get accord, but to me family sedan should ride smoother than this new hondas

@surajrs4 8 лет назад

So if I'm filling gas with the key in my pocket, will the trunk open just because I'm near it? Or are the sensors directed only towards the rear of the car?

@DominicSobreoDomSanity31 8 лет назад

+Suraj Divecha Nice question. But I think there's a sensor in front of the plate number area. I'm not sure though.

@darrinellis4453 8 лет назад

It only works if your standing directly behind the car not the side.

@rogerthat24 8 лет назад

The trunk should open all the way when you stand behind the car. What's the point of opening halfway when you have your hands full?

@rogerthat24 8 лет назад

+RandomUnderscore I know. That's not my point, though.

@derickj1976 8 лет назад

@wmw0007 8 лет назад

Review stunning.. we would like too see without specification (s)

@herbwoods7637 8 лет назад

+00 00 Those new 4 cylinder turbos don't really get better gas mileage than a good old V6, it's a shame that they are beeing replaced by many manufacturers. A V6 is smoother and sounds much better.

@crimsonhawk11234 7 лет назад

Does anyone know if this car is reliable?

@ArseneLupin786 7 лет назад

Double-O $¢rilla Most definitely. It is actually one of the better options than its competitors unless your sole requirement is a v6 engine and nothing else.

@AlienBros 7 лет назад

Double-O $¢rilla Yes I have the 2016 EX model and it has been extremely reliable. It's a great car all around and feels like a German luxury car which I feel is amazing.

@Fouetzky 6 лет назад

Have had my 2016 EX Tech for almost 2 years and never had a single problem with it even tho I'm 24 and I sometimes push it a bit more than I should. Greatest car I've ever owned. 100% going for another Kia for my next car!

@Belgoboy 8 лет назад

I have to admit that having Melissa next to you "could" be great but in this video it was very distracting. I like theinteraction and question and answers, but with her lollipop and her giddy mood, I had a hard time remembering anything you two said to each other. Sorry. Postiive criticism.

@yuhoseok47 8 лет назад

Optima is absolutely the most good looking car in the class, but I don't see any advantage about having the Kia optima.. The price is as the same as Toyota and Honda which are very reliable and credible. Kia still has a problem with reliability..

@mertz313 8 лет назад

Kia offers a longer warranty than Honda and Toyota, which says something about their build quality.

@siamean1 7 лет назад

Heartagram it's a trick. At 100,001 miles the Kia is trashed. at 100,001 mile honda and toyota are barely broken in.

@chrishuber8930 7 лет назад

Sia Mean thats total bullshit. even in the mid 2000s kia and hyundai were very reliable. my step mom bought an elantra in 2012 and they put 400 k miles on it and everything still works. they just sold it. not even bjrning a drop of oil.

Junito Lopez the cars are very reliable. any car manufacturer has duds. i had a 2012 sonata turbo traded it in at 200 k miles and nothing wrong. my step mom had a 2012 elantra and drove a huge amout for work and jjst traded it with 402 k miles and not a single thig ever wrong besides brakes and tires. hyundaks and kias have been reliablefor 15 years. they had some problems with the 2.0 turbo engine but they have been fixed
