The 2009 Kia Optima.

Impeccably designed down to the last detail, Optima gives you the looks, excitement and capability you want — all at an affordable price.

Optima boasts more passenger space than most of its competitors***, plus available interior features designed to fit your personal needs like sumptuous leather seating, automatic temperature control, and a 360-watt Infinity^® premium sound system. Optima's spirited engine provides an exhilarating ride and outstanding fuel economy** — while enhanced suspension provides a precise, sporty driving experience.

What's more, Optima earned the highest possible safety rating - five stars - in the latest frontal and side impact crash tests by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)* and the highest possible rating in front and rear impact tests according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

All this, plus an unbeatable warranty, adds up to a truly outstanding mid-size sedan that's impossible to ignore.
