If you happened to catch our prior post here at DCH Kia of Temecula, you now know at least a bit about our full-size sedan standout, the Cadenza.
Today, however, we're turning our attention to the Cadenza's midsized stablemate, the 2017 Optima.
Check the clip below to discover why our friends over at AutoGuide.com consider the Optima a strong contender for "Car of the Year" honors:
If your need for speed is especially pronounced, it's in the Optima's available engine upgrade -- a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder -- you're likely to meet your match.
Standard on the SX and SXL models, this turbo-four boasts a burly 245 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. Coupling with a six-speed automatic transmission, this brawny four-banger is capable of doing the 0-to-60 mph dash in just 6.7 seconds.
So, what's the hold-up, faithful friend? The time is now to experience the splendor of this sedan. As such, we invite you to pop by our Temecula, CA facility, whereupon we'll happily arrange a test drive in the Optima, or any other Kia model that's made your must-see list.
