The Many Faces of the 2017 Kia Optima Exterior

The Tiger nose grille is a Kia signature that further enhances this sedan’s style.

Inside the Features of 2017 Kia Optima

Sitting in the 2017 Optima, you will be impressed by how quiet it is, letting you focus on the driving experience, your favorite song, or the conversation. To create this quiet atmosphere, Kia improved the body stiffness, re-contoured the mirrors, added sound-absorbing windows, and enhanced the cabin’s sound insulation. The horizontal design on the driver-side console creates streamlined ergonomics and makes the cabin feel even more open. To further upgrade your experience inside the Optima, this Kia comes with premium stitching, bold accents, and soft-touch materials. The front seats can be heated and ventilated. The available cushions were scientifically designed to feature varying firmness in strategic touchpoints, and they feature supportive seat bolsters. Your hands will also stay toasty with the optional heated steering wheel. For the ultimate comfort, consider the available 12-way power-adjustable seat with 4-way lumbar for the driver while your passenger relaxes in the 10-way power-adjustable seat. Rear-seat passengers will appreciate the available rear side sunshades to keep the cabin cool and prevent the need to squint.

Performance of the 2017 Kia Optima

Every 2017 Kia Optima delivers fuel efficiency and power that are perfectly balanced. Going with the LX 1.6T model will give you a 178-horsepower 1.6-liter turbocharged engine paired with a 7-speed Dual-Clutch Transmission. Choose the SX or SX Limited for the 245-horsepower 2-liter turbocharged engine and even more power without sacrificing efficiency. Otherwise, the base engine is a 185-horsepower 2.4-liter direct-injection 4-cylinder and gets 24 city/34 highway/28 combined mpg*. The 1.6-liter turbocharged engine does the best of the non-hybrid Optimas with 28/39/32 mpg*. The 2-liter turbo gets 22/31/25 mpg*. Of course, those who are interested can select the 2017 Kia Optima Hybrid or the Optima Plug-In Hybrid. They use a 2-liter GDI 4-cylinder gas engine and an electric motor to deliver more than 270 pound-feet. The Optima Hybrid gets 42 mpg* combined, while the Plug-In Hybrid will give you 103 MPGe or go up to 29 miles in EV mode.
