Now entering its fifth generation, the 2020 Kia Optima features several new standard features that will make every journey pleasant.

One of the newest features for the 2020 Optima is smartphone wireless charging on the EX trims and above. Additionally, the Forward Collision-Avoidance-Assist system is now standard on all models has been magnified with Pedestrian Detection for safer driving experience throughout your journey. 

The final verdict for 2020 is the debut of the EX Premium trim, which was first available as an option package, and the elimination of the LX and SX Limited packages.

2020 Kia Optima Exterior


No exterior changes on the 2020 Kia Optima, as it preserves its smooth, stylish design with regular Sport bumpers and a chrome exhaust cap. Added pattern features include heated, power-adjustable outside mirrors with combined LED Daytime Running Lights with LED turn signals as well as moving up just one trim to the Optima S adds athletic dual chrome exhaust tips rear spoiler, a power sunshade with a panoramic sunroof, smart welcome which sparkles up the door handles as you approach the 2020 kia and Smart Trunk which on its own opens the trunk when you have your Smart Key on hand.

If you are looking for the ultimate appeal, opt for the top-of-the-line Optima SX, which has bigger alloy wheels, red front, and rear brake calipers, and a suite of Sport-focused features, including the grille, side sills, bumpers, spoiler, and outside mirrors.

2020 Kia Optima Interior


For the 2020 Optima, comfort is chief — right from the inception. The base LX trim has an eight-way driver’s seat and a six-way passenger’s seat with power lumbar support, and easy to clean cloth seats with CleanTex. 

A leather-wrapped steering wheel, gear shift knob, and Sports seats with leather bolsters are added when you select the Optima S and its higher trims. 

But if you want the sophisticated feeling of full leather seating, you will want to go with the Special Edition trim, which also heats those front leather seats as well as the steering roller. 

Appreciative touches like a wood grain accent, a leatherette tool board with silver stitching, and a satin chrome accent can all be observed on more expensive trims.

When it comes to technology, you receive a whole lot of bang for your buck with the 2020 Optima. Standard on all models is Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth wireless technology, a rear-camera display, Siri Eyes Free, an 8-inch touch-screen display, power outlets, and steering-wheel-mounted controls USB ports.

Performance


The LX, S, and Special Edition trim all of them under the hood that’s paired with a six-speed automatic transmission have a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and a Sportmatic sport shifter. Blended the Optima can get a moderate 185 horsepower. 

Efficiency


If you’re looking for a notably valuable vehicle, your best bet is to consider the plug-in hybrid or hybrid variant of the 2020 Optima. However, the standard gas-powered model is still respectable when it comes to the fuel economy aspect.

S: 24/32/27 MPG City-Highway-Combined
LX: 25/35/29 MPG City-Highway -Combined

Kia Rio models

2020 Kia Rio is a subcompact car available either as a sedan or a hatchback (Kia calls it the 5-Door). The sedan comes in three trim levels;


While the hatchback is only sold in S trim.

An optional Technology package that's only available for the S trim adds LED headlights, forward collision warning, and emergency braking, Kia's UVO eServices communications, an upgraded driver information display, and satellite radio.

The amount of hundred dollars that separates the base Rio LX from the S model is worth the price. It latter adds a center armrest, cruise control, split-folding back seat with adjustable headrests, keyless entry, and rear USB outlet.

Fuel economy is outstanding for a non-hybrid car like this with a highway mileage of 32 mpg (combined city) for either transmission, with 37 mpg supposedly attainable on the highway.

Forward Collision Warning-Warns you if a front collision is imminent. Available only on the S trim level.

Rearview Camera-Helps the driver navigate into tight parking spots and avoid collisions when backing out of spots in crowded parking lots.

Automatic Emergency Braking-When the system is paired with forward collision warning, it can automatically engage the brakes if the driver doesn't react in time.

As mentioned, the 2020 Kia Rio has many common and optional features and specs on the S trim. The Kia Rio LX has various other amenities to offer you.
