The KIA OPTIMA (2016-18) 4DR SALOON 2.0 T-GDI 241 EU6 GT AUTO6 is a large, four-door petrol saloon: a roomy alternative to an SUV or hatchback, aimed at buyers wanting comfort and a premium feel without choosing a luxury badge. Its GT version adds a sportier edge to family transport. mycarcheck.com has recorded just one check for this exact version, so its figures are a small snapshot, not a market-wide guide. That record showed an average private-sale valuation of £8,300, mileage of 56,000, annual use of 11,000 miles and two previous keepers. Check each car’s history and condition before buying. Its turbocharged power and automatic suit commuters and families wanting relaxed, brisk longer-distance driving, though fuel costs can exceed those of smaller-engined rivals. Compared with the Ford Mondeo, Volkswagen Passat and Vauxhall Insignia, the Optima offers generous equipment, a sporty character and Kia’s strong warranty reputation for many used-car buyers.
