Kia Optima review

The quality impression created by the outside is present within the Optima too. The dashboard is smart-looking and details such as a shiny wood insert at the top of the steering wheel help raise the ambience, taking attention away from the few cheap and shiny plastics that do remain.

It is also, yes, gigantic inside. Truly cavernous. You could get one adult sitting behind another and still have space to slot another row of full-sized humans in between.
