Kia Optima dimensions. "Kia Optima": technical characteristics and description of models. Innovation and functionality
In 2000, such a new product as the Kia Optima was presented to the attention of motorists. The technical characteristics of this model immediately made it clear that this is a good, dynamic car that has clear prospects for the future. Even the very first versions were available in six different variants. And the power of the most expensive engine was 151 hp, so the new product immediately gained confidence. It is not surprising that cars produced in recent years are considered among the most popular in the entire model range of the concern. These are the ones worth talking about.
Transformed "Optima"
The third generation began production in 2010. However, it is not the very first models that are interesting, but those that were restyled at the end of 2013. True, they reached Russia only at the beginning of 2014. The design is the same as Kia connoisseurs love. Sporty, moderately aggressive and even elegant. Expressive front optics, modern foglights, brand new wheels and smooth curves of the body - this is how you can characterize the appearance of the new product.
What are the technical characteristics of this Kia Optima? The kind that can impress. Thanks to the 2-liter base engine producing 150 hp, this car can accelerate to 210 km/h. And it reaches “hundreds” in 9.5 seconds. The choice is either “automatic” or “mechanical”, however, each transmission has 6 speeds. By the way, this engine consumes relatively little fuel. In mixed mode, 100 kilometers consume 7-7.6 liters of gasoline.
Flagship motor
What was mentioned above is not all that the Kia Optima released in 2014 can boast of. The technical characteristics of the flagship engine, also installed under the hood of the new product, are more impressive. The engine power is 180 hp and the volume is 2.4 liters. True, there is no choice here - “automatic” or “mechanics”. Only 6-automatic transmission is offered. But this car has more consumption. About 11.5 liters in the city and 8 in mixed mode.
2016
Not long ago, the new Kia Optima went on sale. Its technical characteristics have become significantly better, as has its appearance and interior.
The car is based on a chassis taken from Model 7. And under the hood they installed an engine that had not previously been equipped with other models. This is a turbocharged engine with a power of 245 horsepower. It is capable of accelerating the car to “hundreds” in just 7.4 seconds. And its maximum speed is 240 km/h. It is not surprising that this is now the most popular Kia Optima.
The technical characteristics of other engines are less impressive. There is also an option with a 2-liter engine with 150 and 163 hp, as well as a version with a 141 hp unit. under the hood.
Other updates
The Kia Optima also has a new body. And to be more precise, it’s simply greatly changed. The appearance remained attractive, but the recognizable “tiger nose” disappeared. The designers modernized everything - the bumper, trunk lid, radiator grille and optics. For example, LED headlights were installed. And the windows took on a different shape. Although a considerable number of details remain from its predecessor.
It is worth noting that the appearance of the new product largely depends on its modification. The model with a gasoline engine will receive an aggressive aerodynamic body kit under the hood. And the front bumper will be decorated with massive air intakes. The hybrid model will have a special one that can be raised.
What about the configuration? The new Kia Optima, the price of which starts at 1,100,000 rubles, received cameras with all-round visibility, smart navigation, cruise and an active braking system. A wireless mobile charging system has also appeared in the cabin. And the car was also equipped with a modern, electronically controlled suspension. This is one of the highlights that the Kia Optima can boast of. The test drive showed that thanks to such a suspension it is possible to make the chassis both sporty and softer and more comfortable.
Equipment
Finally, it’s worth briefly talking about the equipment that the new Kia Optima can boast of. The price of the car depends on it.
So, a full-size alloy spare tire, LED running lights, as well as an electric drive and folding rear-view mirrors are offered as basic equipment. In terms of safety, the car is equipped with front and side airbags, as well as curtains. The base also includes a stability control system, VSM, HAC and ESS. Also installed inside is a multifunctional steering wheel, a light sensor, cruise control, electric windows and even a luggage net.
The cheapest car, as mentioned above, costs 1,100,000 rubles. This is the Classic package. There is also “Comfort” for 1,230,000 rubles, “Lux” (1,350,000 rubles), “Prestige” (1,510,000 rubles), GT-line (1,620,000 rubles) and GT (1,750,000 rubles .).
