Kia Optima GT - Genting Run 衝上雲頂 011 | EvoMalaysia.com

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

A decade ago the Kia Optima was the car you bought because you can't afford an Accord or a Camry. But now with a 242hp 2.0-litre turbo engine, has it elevated itself to become a serious contender? I try it on a Genting Run to find out.

    Would it feel better if you drove it like how you drove the C-HR? Like constantly keeping it within its power band range (above 4krpm).

    May be, but there's also traffic around, not so safe to go full throttle with 242hp on tap la. Haha.

    My dad has 2013 Kia Optima K5. The reason he brought the car is looks good and it has good features for the money. My dad takes the car to Genting and he loves how the car handle. The fuel consumption is not the best for City drive but for highway run, the car able to go around 600km to 700km depends on how you drive.

    The K5 is a pretty good product, a major leap from its predecessor.

    Hi Kon, sonata LF and optima GT are essentially the same car underneath. How does the ride and heading stacks up between both cars? Power aside... Thanks!

    The Sonata LF's handling is actually very neat. A competent car, but the 2.0-litre NA engine is underwhelming.

    In the case of Optima GT 2.0 Turbo vs Passat High Line 2.0 Turbo, which one would you recommend? An Optima GT after discount is around RM160K. A Passat High Line 2.0 demo car is also around RM160K. So it is a little bit difficult to choose.

    The Passat is a more refined car and offers more polished handling, but my bet is that the Optima will be more reliable la. The Optima may also turn more heads than the Passat.
