Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The KIA OPTIMA (2018-22) is a spacious family saloon, offering a comfortable, grown-up alternative to a hatchback. In the UK used-car market, it appeals to drivers wanting room and refinement without moving up to an SUV. Its smart styling and generous cabin make it well suited to family journeys and regular motorway commutes.
Across 200 mycarcheck.com checks covering 109 distinct VINs, the average private-sale valuation was £11,300. The cars averaged 61,000 miles, with annual mileage of 15,000 and fewer than one previous keeper on average (0.9). These figures offer a useful snapshot of cars checked, rather than a guarantee of any individual Optima’s condition or value.
Against rivals such as the Ford Mondeo, Volkswagen Passat and Skoda Superb, the KIA Optima stands out as a comfortable choice that can offer strong value used. It suits families, couples and commuters seeking a roomy, easy-going car, rather than a city runabout.
