My first Kia Optima (2012) was perfect, so I bought a 2015. Love the style and value that this car provides.

5 star review. Knowledgeable and good vocal delivery. You didn’t fumble over your words, you spoke clearly and to the point. You knew the correct terms for everything you covered and you covered pretty much everything thoroughly. You did a great job.

I get my Kia Optima 2015 LX this Saturday. I'm so excited 😊!

I purchased a black lx on Dec 30th on an end of year sale for 17K. It was brand new with only 12 miles, 12 not 12k. I luv everything about the car and especially for the price. Honestly a V6 is not needed because it's fast as shit without barely touching the pedal. Very spacious also. The drive is very smooth.

God job. It's just that my 274 HP SX-Turbo SMOKES the 245 in the new one. Kia said it "improves drivability" that is code for "doesn"t explode while still under warranty. I try to drive in a sane manner, but that turbo kick and crushing BMW 525's never gets old. Also, my 2012 front end design, like yours, is the focal point and why it looks so gorgeous. Look at the Windshield design, how it fits into the roof. beautiful. I am 6 foot 2 and have no issues geting in or out. The seats hold up well. I have 48,900 milees on my 2012 and since I bought the B2B 100k mile extended warranty (I have 3 kids). So, I have 2 payments left, and 52,000 more miles of warranty, plus free oil changes and state inspections....plus car washes, for life. This one is a keeper. I was going to trade....but my girls are going t need a car, and daddy needs a new Mustang. LOL.

love your videos keep up the good work

I love the honest assessment

I can hear "take me to church" playing in the background! great song

This video really helped me to get a complete idea about KIA Optima. Certainly, i'll proceed with the same. Thanks Buddy. Cheers :)

Excellent review. Best I have ever seen.

Good review on the Kia Optima

Great explanation, amazing video

Got pretty much this exact car but grey over the weekend and I’m honestly impressed with the features it has for the price we got. Even heated back seats. Crazy! The cabin is also one of the quietest I’ve been in. Rides well. I wish the door panel arm rests extended longer kind of a weird length and form. The infinity speakers are great but are in a weird spot and get reverb through the doors. Gonna put some speaker rings around them and sound dampen the door. It’s only been a few days but I’m loving it so far.

I like the front seats have the plastic that covers the back. When kids are in front facing car seats, their feet are at perfect height for kicking the back of the front seats. The plastic is easy to wipe clean and prevents any stains from kids shoes.

Underrated car for sure.

Great review!

@6:45 no, leave the vents alone, they look real enough to be NOT cheesy. I think they accentuate the car's overall good styling. I drove this car (2.4 liter) as a rental and I almost could not find anything to complain about Tire noise from road irregularities at highway speeds does get inside the cabin, but the car is quiet on smooth roads. Idle quality from inside the car is amazingly silent and vibration free. Throttle response is top-notch as can be expected from these new drive-by-wire systems, and transmission shifts are seamless smooth. The body is tight, flex-free and rattle free. Interior materials were also good. This car's overall quality shows that Kia is doing its best (and doing a good job at it) in keeping up with the benchmarks.

Just got this car this week. Even in 2024 a lot of these new cars ain’t F*ckn with this car!

Nice descriptive review

I purchased a Optima 2015 and I'm satisfied with my son😄 reliable vehicle, Echo System!!

Some nice looking cars now days

I own a 2014 KIA Optima Turbo, I have owned over 30 cars in my life, and this is my second favorite one (my favorite one will always be my first car, a 1974 Dodge Dart that was already 11 years old when I got it). I got a 7 seater 2014 KIA Rondo for my wife and you will never have her driving anything else. Yes I am a KIA fan, but i really love all cars!

Most amazing car ever So beautiful

no way i love the vent

I just bought a pre-owned 2015 optima, it has 34000 miles, but it's such a nice car. Fast af too

I own this exact car but black. I absolutely love it!!

it's amazing, most popular. I like this car!

Beautiful

Excellent review. Only suggestion for improvement is to show if the passenger seat is powered 'lift' (the one question I was hoping your detailed review would have). Great job on the rest, keep it up :)

Korean cars have come a long way say 15 years ago. I never thought i would ever like Kia or Hyundai. I have owned a few Japanese, American and German cars. All have had good points and also bad points. But for the money, you cant overlook the features it comes with. It definitely opens up the market for more choices and it gives the consumer more options out there. I just bought. Hyundai Genesis Rspec and its been pleasant so far.

Bloody hell! so much of smoke. What quality fuel are you using?

Dope car I have a black one I love it

This is the best lookin kia dat ever came out that i would buy next to the lexus

It looks nice

This guy crackin me up with his vocab! 😝😝😝😝😝

Kia and Hyundai sedan's styling has made their competitors step up their game. Even the ugly Camry has been updated to look somewhat better.

Camerons Car Reviews, please do review & startup 2015 Kia K900. Thanx!

The 2016 Mazda 6 is the best driven car out there.

I just bought an LX in Smokey Blue. I love it.

The ones I've seen so far have not had big screens like such.

Cameron Is There Honna Be A Future 2016 Kia Optima?

Would you say the step in on this is lower than the Volkswagen Jetta? Or is the Jetta Lower?

Question ? my kia optima LX why have the driver seat electronic and the passenger seat is manual , i don't understand or the car come like that or the dealer change one the seat 2013 is the year , thanks for help me

soooooooo beautifulllllll

I have a 2013 optima LX model with the convenience package which includes power driver seat and a rear view camera, so you don't need to pay a lot extra for these features and I really like the 30+ mpg I average.

Wonder if the rear seats would fit into a Rio..

CAMARON CAMARON CON SALSA Y LIMON AYYYYY WEEEEEY

I want to retrofit that cluster into my Rio.. Did these models come in a manual transmission?

Very great car but I got in a very serious accident and I walked away with no injuries just minor burns to my arms from the air bag

I just bought the basic lx aptima i like it but the steering wheel creaks alittle lot of plastic.

I had a Kia Optima. While the car looked nice, it had a few problems. The paint on the hood started to chip off. I showed the dealer and told him it was defective. He said it was not a 'defect', rather it was an 'effect' of how I am driving. So it was not covered under warranty. The back window started to make a rattling sound. They said it was the cold weather and to come back in the summer. It developed a minor oil leak. They tried three times to fix it. The final time they said there was nothing more they can do. Sorry sir. The car began to pull to one side on the road. They said "it seems ok to us sir"... The leather seats started to wear out prematurely. That's when I realized that the 10 year warranty is of no use if they deny my claims and can't fix legitimate issues. I wound up trading it in a year later.

Does both sunroofs open?

Sold me on the rear air conditioning "events"

Excuse me sir, but those fins on the side of the car MAKE THE CAR! Ford has copied them tremendously. It looks ridiculous on the ford escape. I have the kia Optima 2012 and it's a great car. The electric steering is sooooo sweet ! Handling and acceleration is beatiful. That's it . Your doing a good job over all bro.

What type oil does a Kia Optima use

$2995 markup on top of MSRP for a KIA... This dealership is full of it.

Is that all yall have to say is that the steering wheel is ugly?? Its really not!! Its supposed to look like that for sporty characteristics.

sounds like a leaf blower

Does anyone know if the 2015 ex has a digital speedometer?

Whats the intro music name? plzzzz

Also... the steering wheel on the 2015's is flat on the bottom.... the 2014 and below, were a full circle as shown in your video...

Are the speakers loud

For this model car

Getting the 2015 EX tomorrow! If you ask I'll update you on how it is!

haven't been too impressed with my optima. newest car I've owned. check engine light came on a week after I got it. only get 14-17 mpg now. trying to figure it out still. radio messes up now when you turn the volume up. not quiet cars there is a lot of road noise.

Looking for a right side minor white in color

I had one of these as a rental. The engine seems rather loud. Why is this? I also had a bad experience with owning a Kia in the past.

Anybody else having a issue where it feels as if the steering wheel is "sticking" as you drive?

I have the base trim of this car and I love it so far.. Just wish Kia wasnt so stingy with some of the features...Also the rear speakers are weak as hell..

I have this car

When did Big Gay Al start doing reviews?

ما شاء الله ولا حول ولا قوة الا بالله رب العالمين حسبنا الله وسيوتينا الله من فضله وانا إلى ربنا راغبون/ اللهم اجعلها قريبه من متناول يداي .. يارب العالمين

so what would be better this or a chrysler 200s

I want

I got a silver one now lol

based on the speedometer that looks like a 2014... NOT a 2015. The EX Luxry model 2015 has a LCD in the middle and 2 circular clusters, one on each side... just saying...

my uncle has exact car

Awesome job Cameron.! All of these beautiful Kias are available and in stock here at Roseville Kia.

I don't know, it looks great on the exterior and it's cheap. On the inside, the wheel looks like it came from the 90s and the interior design looks it came from the 2000s.

I hate how you have to spend over $3,000 on the EX trim just to get the damn rear view camera when other mid-size sedans have it standard on more trim levels. Couldn't care less for the other features in that $3,000+. Kia only offers it standard on the top of the line Limited trim.

Can anyone who has driven or bought recently, or know someone who has, give me opinions on Sonata vs Optima?

is the wood real?

Do not get a kia they have staring issues they run fine but sometimes they just dont start

why is there a cup holder on the engine cover....

This car attracts,for this one to be a 2.4 4 cyl @ 192 horseys,not bad,but that engine noise sounds,annoying,,better in dark metallic colors,and I wonder why he [the reviewer] likes the grip on the fat steering wheel,,,,

I just test drove this car. I really like the car but this review fails to mention the poor audio system. If you wanted to upgrade you have to start at the EX, and then still upgrade to the tech premium package. My 2000 jetta has better speakers than this car. Secondly, since this car is under the european style, the rear window is small. The would be personal preference or something to get use to.

8:28 تذكرني بخلاطتنا

You don't need a degree to figure it out? I'm sure they're plenty of people with degrees who still couldn't figure it out

Im 22 and about to buy my first car(used) im looking to get this car.. Is that a good option?

I like mean and aggressive

Not the same car on the picture smh

Very expensive for Kia. I would pay 12k for new one

engine noise is loud!!!!

El

You have to buy a premium package to get a back up camera? Really? Lol the Accord considers that an industry standard and provides it at ALL trim levels.

Nice car! the steering wheel is very ugly tho.

Lmfaoooo want to be like Saabyke much?

Strongest challenge KIA Optima kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ed2ngtqEssnVeac.html

Just traded in my 2013 Kia Optima, too many issues had it less than a year, brakes go prematurely, Seats are very light if you get cloth shows every little stain. The passenger seat is extremely low can’t see over the dash unless you’re taller. Also had a lot of issues with battery and electrical. My lights would stop working one day, work the next. Everytime it rained my car wouldn’t start. Deff not worth the money.

The inside looks like a 2013 Dodge Dart to 2017 this was coped
