Thumbs down Kia Optima ?!
Kia.... I know, right? This car looks really good, plus DI, turbo, Hybrid, etc.

This is basically the other Sonata, since they share platforms.

The wheels remind me of VWs.

Not overly excited about that front grille, but as a whole its quite a step forward from the prior generation.

Also, why not bring the hood all the way down to the grille? That hood line is distracting.
