Kia has been on a promising streak, recently introducing vehicles that exude quality engineering, exceptional performance, and yes, even style. Previous Kia models were by no means hard to look at, but their designs were a bit conservative. Kia's reputation in the past hasn't exactly revolved around head turning designs, but the automaker is well on its way to changing that for the 2011 model year. The 2011 Kia Optima SX arrived at dealerships earlier this year with an all new style that can easily make the sedan one of the most attractive in its class. Kia didn't focus only on styling though; the Optima SX boasts an advanced platform, cutting edge technology and better fuel efficiency.
The latest and the greatest model arrived at Pekin Kia Optima dealers, boasting a sleek, aerodynamic exterior that is suggestive of its performance. Kia's signature grille is surrounded by dramatically swept back headlamps that give the car a striking front nose. The Optima's 19-inch aluminum wheels create an upscale profile that is enhanced by the tasteful chrome arc that extends from the car's cross hatch to its rear. The car's rear LED combination taillights and rear lip spoiler create a sporty appearance that will be hard for any competitor to top.
Inside the Optima SX is nothing short of lavish. The instrument panel is subtly contoured to face the driver which makes for easy interaction. Seats draped in leather and the use of soft-touch materials on the door panels and dash contribute to the Optima's luxurious appeal. Passengers will stay comfortable no matter how much cargo they stow with the innovative storage compartments which create more than adequate cargo space. A surprising amount of high tech accessories come standard at your East Peoria Kia Optima dealer including illuminated vanity mirrors, a six-way adjustable driver's seat and a trip computer.
The Optima SX comes standard at your Pekin Kia Optima dealership with a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that delivers a healthy 274 horsepower. The base model is also plenty powerful and comes endowed with a 2.4-liter 4-clinder engine. Both engines are paired to a six-speed automatic transmission and deliver a smooth, quiet ride. Despite the more than adequate power both engines deliver, fuel economy ratings are not to be unnoticed. The base and SX models achieve 24/35 (city/highway mpg) and 22/34 (city/highway mpg), respectively, making the Optima one of the most powerful, but fuel efficient cars in its class.
Kia has been known for their affordable price tags and the Optima SX is no exception. The car is available at your East Peoria Kia Optima dealer starting at just $29,995. Offering performance, style, fuel efficiency and quality, the Optima SX leaves little to be desired. Kia's winning streak is gaining more and more momentum and putting the automaker in position to be on top of the competition.
