Driving pleasure and kids.
It is possible to have both.
If only your kids responded as eagerly to your every command as the new
Optima. Put your foot down and its superb 2.7 litre V6 will have you
hitting 100km/h in just 9.5 seconds. Which doesn’t leave a lot of
time to choose between the convenience of automatic or the fun of
clutch-less manual driving thanks to the Tiptronic-style transmission.
Handling is also excellent and is further complemented by Kia’s innovative
Traction Control System. In simple terms, this system monitors the
individual drive wheels to help you maintain optimum traction at all
times.
It
accommodates a long list of features as well as your family.
Take a look at the Optima and you could be forgiven for thinking that
it gets its name from the ‘optimal’ number of features you could possibly
fit in a family sedan. There’s speed-sensitive power steering, power
windows and mirrors for starters. Then of course, there’s the alloy
wheels, air conditioning and central locking with remote keyless entry.
Not forgetting leather trim and wood grain inlays. There’s also dual
airbags and the state-of-the-art Traction Control System. And if the kids
ever get too noisy you can always drown them out with the 180W, six
speaker CD sound system.
