Updated Kia Optima sedan launched for tests

On the roads of the United States, the Kia Optima restyled sedan is testing for the first time.

Car sales will begin in February or March next year. Because sales of sedans are falling due to the popularity of crossovers and all-terrain vehicles, many companies often update them or completely abandon them. Kia needs to stay in the game to compete primarily with Honda and Toyota.

The updated Optima is now heavily camouflaged. No radical design innovations could imagine. The model will acquire specific changes in the body, like the Stinger. The novelty will turn out a little wider, plus the wheelbase will increase, and this will contribute to a more spacious interior.

The engine range of the machine will include new or improved 4-cylinder engines. After a while, versions with a rechargeable hybrid installation will appear.
