2020 Kia Optima EX Specs

The EX is equipped with the Optima’s efficiency-optimized 1.6-liter turbo powertrain which would appeal to the climate-conscious individuals and those who just want to save some pennies over the long run. It also comes with a few extra creature comforts and conveniences, including heated front seats with pure leather appointments, a leather-wrapped gearshift knob, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. It adds to the standard safety features list as well with a smart cruise control system with stop-and-go functionality. The infotainment system is upgraded with satellite radio connectivity and Wi-Fi hotspot capability at this point.
