EXTERIOR
It draws you in… and wins you over
A bold new shape. Appealing details. Exciting new technology. And an extended wheelbase for even better stability and comfort. The roomier all-new Kia Optima puts refinement into an irresistible package.
A stunning silhouette
Side windows that gracefully stretch beyond the rear doors. A reshaped boot lid that acts as an aerodynamic spoiler. And a choice of new wheel designs. The all-new Kia Optima is a showstopper in the truest sense of the word.
Even from behind, it puts its best foot forward
An arching aerodynamic stance. Prominent rear lamps. Clean, sculpted lines. And handsome tailpipe options. Any way you look at it, the all-new Kia Optima radiates luxury from any angle.
