For folks who need to strain it enthusiastically, there’s a flat-backside steerage wheel, aluminum pedals, and multiple energy modes too. However, with zero-one hundred km/h run taking 9. Five-seconds, be warned that Optima is the slowest amongst its competitors.

Verdict

107,000 Dirhams, that’s the charge for the pinnacle of the road Kia Optima. It’s more expensive than the Toyota Camry and Nissan Altima, however, it does provide slightly greater too. On the entire, it's miles a top-notch package for those attempting to find a budget-pleasant own family sedan.
