Menuda preciosidad, solo le voy a poner una pega y es que los pilotos traseros se alarguen tanto por los laterales, yo los hubiese dejado hasta la linea del paragolpes

nota de prensa, en inglés

Kia Motors America (KMA), one of America’s fastest-growing car companies over the last five years, unveiled a significantly updated version of its best-selling Optima mid-size sedan today at the 2013 New York International Auto Show (NYIAS).Just three years ago, Kia turned the automotive world on its head when the Peter Schreyer-penned Optima mid-size sedan was unveiled at the 2010 NYIAS. Since that time, Optima has become Kia’s sales leader, selling more than 150,000 units last year and gaining worldwide acclaim for its European-inspired design and fun-to-drive performance.

The 2014 Optima, built in the US at Kia’s West Point, Ga., facility (KMMG), arrives with updated front and rear fascias, retaining the vehicle’s dynamic and sporty proportions. Available in LX, EX, SX and SX-Limited trims, the Optima’s new premium amenities and convenience options make Optima an impressive player in the competitive mid-size sedan segment.

The 2014 Optima is expected to arrive in Kia retail showrooms in the third quarter of the year, and pricing will be announced closer to the vehicle’s on-sale date.

“With the latest version of the Optima, Kia continues to advance value to new levels of sophistication, offering mid-size sedan consumers new premium amenities and convenience upgrades, as well as a refinement of the world-class design that so completely transformed our brand,” said Michael Sprague, executive vice-president, marketing & communications, KMA. “The Optima is the cornerstone of Kia’s design evolution and epitomizes the brand’s goal of building highly-captivating, value-positioned vehicles.”

Improvement of an Already Iconic Design
In a mid-size sedan segment long dominated by function over desirability, the 2014 Optima cements the model’s status as a trailblazer of combining style and substance in an affordably priced vehicle.

Refining the Optima’s sculpted, high-end appearance, Kia’s Frankfurt-based design team improved the vehicle’s front and rear fascias and the brand’s signature tabbed grille. The vehicle’s bold stance and aerodynamic shape are further accentuated by updated rear diffusers and a sweeping trunk lid.

Lighting up the European-inspired design are striking front LED positioning and fog lights, along with clear, newly designed LED rear lamps.

The improvements continue within the cabin of the 2014 Optima, as drivers are greeted with more upscale and high-tech amenities. Activating the Optima’s push button ignition brings two new displays to life: a 4.3-inch TFT LCD instrument cluster and optional high-resolution 8-inch navigation and telematics screen, featuring UVO eServices, an 8-speaker Infinity®sound system, HD Radio™®, SiriusXM™ Satellite Radioand SiriusXM Traffic™4.

All-new seat designs ensure a comfortable drive in the powerful and spirited sedan, while an optional new Blind Spot Detection (BSD)system, which includes rear cross-traffic alert and rear parking sensors, improve convenience and peace of mind.

Every 2014 Optima, comes well equipped with a generous roster of standard features.

The LX trim offers dual exhaust with chrome tips, solar glass, exterior mirror turn signal indicators, front fog lights, exterior heated mirrors, chrome accented exterior door handles and new 16-inch alloy wheels fitted with 205/65R16 tyres and a six-speed automatic transmission.

The volume-leading EX trim offers larger 17-inch alloy wheels fitted with 215/55R17 tyres, leather seats, 8-way power adjustable driver’s seat, and an illuminated front cup holders. Moving to the SX trim, consumers will find stylish new 18-inch polished alloy wheels with 225/45R18 tires, unique front and rear lower bumpers and side sills, aero wiper blades.

The SX-T includes HID headlights with auto leveling. Elevating to the top-of-the-line Limited trim brings Optima to another level of sporty refinement, adding unique 18-inch chrome wheels, new LED fog lights, red brake callipers, an electronic parking brake, chrome accented side sills, and premium Nappa leather seats.

Dynamic and Efficient Powertrains
The 2014 Optima is available with two powerful Theta II powerplants featuring petrol direct injection (GDI) technology: a 2.4-litrr GDI four-cylinder or a 2.0-litre GDI turbo engine. A 2.4-litre hybrid powertrain is also available.

The 2.4-litre GDI engine is available on LX, EX and SX models while the more robust 2.0-litre turbo GDI engine is offered exclusively to the SX. This turbo-charged unit delivers V6-type power with a four-cylinder's efficiency.

Each engine choice is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission featuring Sportmatic® clutchless shifting. New for the 2014 Optima, and exclusive to the sporty SX variant, is Drive Mode Select (DMS), which adjusts transmission shift points and steering weight, offering owners a customizable driving experience.

* The Sorento and Optima GDI (EX Trims and certain LX Trims only) and GDI Turbo are built in the United States from US and globally sourced parts.

un buen ejemplo de un diseño moderno que no resulta hortera-cargante como lo que suele ser habitual ultimamente
Su hermano el hyundai i 40 es bastante más feo y recargado para mi gusto.
A ver cuando hacen el familiar de este.

Tan difícil era arreglar los azules para que no quedara no fria, sino congelada, la temperatura?? :S

Por no hablar de la pedazo de mota que se ve en la puerta.

Kia esta dandolo todo los ultimos años. lo malo ke le veo es ke ya no tiene buenos precios. Nuestra cultura asocia a kia con economia (rima y todo) pero la realidad es que estan vendiendo los coches al mismo precio que las demas marcas.
Con la competencia que hay la gente logicamente prefiere meter 30000 euros en un hinda,toyota,vw,bmw,audi,mercedes antes ke en um kia

Sigo diciendo que Kia se esta poniendo las pilas, al igual que Hyundai.

Este modelo en concreto creo que es un acierto, lo que pasa que ha coincidido con una mala época para la venta de cualquier berlina, sumado a la "marquitis" habitual de nuestro mercado. A ver si a europa nos traen alguna versión bien equipada de caballos. Saludos.
