Kia Optima Hybrid Specs

Kia Optima Hybrid 2014 is the hybrid with true style inside and out. With a sleek, sculpted body, an interior both spacious and luxurious, and impressive blend of power and fuel efficiency in this car. Kia Optima Hybrid 2014 with an upgraded powertrain, the 2013 Optima Hybrid delivers truly satisfying performance and impressive fuel economy. The LX achieves 34 mpg in the city and 40 mpg on the highway.
The Kia Optima Hybrid 2014 is a gas-electric version of the standard Optima midsize sedan that carries the distinction of being the brand's first-ever hybrid in the U.S. market. As with the mechanically-identical Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, the Optima Hybrid offers plenty of style but can't match the fuel efficiency of its competitors.

Some feature in Kia Optima Hybrid 2014 is manual transmission no longer available, choice of two four-cylinders, including a 274-hp turbo engine, available hybrid version, available heated and cooled seats, heated steering wheel, and available voice-recognition system. The Kia Optima Hybrid 2014’s powertrain falls short of critics’ expectations and its fuel economy isn’t as good as rival hybrids’, but its long list of standard features and long warranty may appeal to some shoppers. The 2013 Kia Optima Hybrid 2014 has a four-cylinder engine and electric motor paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. At 36/40 mpg city/highway, the Optima Hybrid’s fuel economy is good for the class, but among midsize hybrids, it isn’t very good. For example, the Toyota Camry Hybrid and Ford Fusion Hybrid use less fuel. Many test drivers are disappointed with the Kia Optima Hybrid 2014’s powertrain, saying that the transition from gas to electric power is jarring, and that it feels a bit lethargic when accelerating from a stop. Also, several test drivers say the Optima Hybrid’s regenerative brakes feel numb. Critics do say that the Optima Hybrid has composed handling. The five-seat 2013 Kia Optima Hybrid 2014 is available in two trims: LX and EX. It has a four-cylinder engine, electric motor and six-speed automatic transmission. The Optima Hybrid debuted for the 2011 model year, and since it sees only minor changes for 2013, this overview uses applicable research and reviews from the 2011 and 2012 model years, as well as the current model year. Most hybrids are all about fuel economy, and the Kia Optima Hybrid is no exception to the rule. However, it goes about its high-mileage mission in a slightly different manner than most other gas-electric vehicles, giving it a unique set of strengths and weaknesses that should be fully considered by prospective buyers.
