2025 Kia Optima Sxl Review. Verdict the 2018 kia optima is attractive, versatile, and affordable, but it doesn't quite measure up to rivals in a highly competitive class. But even at $35,275, the interior is very well designed and even better executed.

Kia optima prices range from $21,340 for the optima si to $36,080 for the optima gt nav (black leather) sunroof. Edmunds has a detailed expert review of the 2015 kia optima sx turbo sedan.
