    ***Surprisingly the performance is much better than Mazda CX-5 that i test out few times which i don't feel sufficient power to drive it (Under power). Not sure is that a good impact directly from the 3rd Gen of CVT Technology? from my point of View, 11km/L is a very good fuel efficiency
    ***Comfortable level & sound proof is the a very good adv[...]
    ***something that i need to highlight the disadvantage, 2 airbags ? such a SUV almost close to perfection but 2 airbags? TCM, you really need to reconsider the safety of your buyer. "They could be your 2nd car buyer too". Lastly, not satisfy with such a safety feature.
    ***Plastic boot? seriously ? not good for those big vehicle bang our backsi[...]

ZAIFUL ANNUAR
Sport+ 1.0 EcoBoost (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 1 Year
Fuel Economy: 13.2 km/litre (7.6 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 3,000 km/month
    - GOOD LOW END TORQUE. It really helps with the low fuel consumption, due to not having to rev so high to squeeze out the power from the reserve. Pulling away from traffic feels effortless. It is very intoxicating.
    - HIGH SPEED STABILITY. Driving at high speed, the ride is very stable and quiet, making you not realize how fast you are actually [...]
    - REAR LEGROOM. It is a bit tight at the back, even after the front passenger or driver have moved their seats significantly towards the front. Shoulder room is also quite narrow.
    - GEARBOX - while the gearchanges are superb during acceleration from standstill, the same can't be said during traffic jams. It sometimes judders especially during [...]

    I use this car only as my weekend car, usually I use my sportbike during weekday. I purchase the car complete with Mugen bodykit. It is a tough decision to make between Jazz and Fiesta. But, the main reason I buy this car is due to the ultra seat. I really love the performance and handling of this car. You can feel the accelerations and the car [...]
    -No auto lock, already test open the door while car moving at 30kmh, it doesn't lock.
    -Paddle shifters
    -CKD quality
    -No daytime running lights
    -Push start button position

2.0 (2014)
Bought new, Owned for 2 Years
Fuel Economy: 10.5 km/litre (9.5 L/100 km), RON95
    I have only driven the following non-Malaysian cars extensively :

    - 2008 Accord and Civic, 2011 Civic and 2013 Accord
    - 2010 Teana and 2013 Teana
    - F30 320i, E9 320i. Only SAT in F10 so far :(
    - 1.6 Elantra and 1.6 Cerato.
    - 2012 Camry

    Therefore my review of the Kia Optima will be based on comparing the list of cars I have driven above[...]
    Steering AND pedal feel is absolutely pathetic in comparison to my mom's Hyundai Elantra. The Kia Optima's steering is ridiculously light, so much so that you can make a u-turn using your INDEX FINGER. Accelerator pedal has too little resistance causing you to rev higher than normal when in a rush (I keep hitting 3k rev in city/town driving by a[...]

Bought new, Owned for 2 Years
Fuel Economy: 13.0 km/litre (7.7 L/100 km), Diesel, Mileage: 2,000 km/month
    Excellent fuel economy
    Cheap running and maintenance costs
    Huge cabin space and SUV-like interior
    Easy to drive and park despite its size(my wife's daily drive)
    Although underpowered, the low end and long flat torque curve makes city driving more bearable compared to some high Torque diesel with spike on the powerband
    Underpowered for Highway overtaking.
    Engine sounds like a lorry
    Too many Special Editions makes my X-series Not special

    1- For 1.3 a compact car, performance is good at city drive.
    2- Ride is simply wonderful as this car is great around the bends. It gives you the confident to step on the pedal when taking corners. Always makes me miss driving it haha
    3- Engine is a little bit noisy when accelerating hard but you'll get used to it as time goes by. But when at [...]
    1- The reverse sensors. Doesn't seem to work properly. Alert sound wasn't loud enough.
    2- No fog lights for the Exec variant.
    3- Closer gear ratio.

    My Preve 2012 (1st Batch) bought in July 2012 is already 140,450km....what i can say is:

    -Reliable as i will be reaching 150k km in July (Going to be 3 years)
    -Considered a powerful engine for its class (of course cannot compete with VW or Ford)
    -Good handling compared to many cars in its class
    -Good features and specification
    -Value buy[...]
    - Quality need to be improved (The 2014 and 2015 Preve is much better than mine 2012)
    - Engine is not refine compared to many other cars
    - Push Start features not a real push start.
    - Cabin noise is not well insulated.
    - Fuel consumption is on the higher side for a turbo 1.6 but comparable to a 2.0 NA car.

Fuel Economy: 11.0 km/litre (9.1 L/100 km), RON97, Mileage: 1,000 km/month
    So the time has come for me to finally retire my 2012 MY after 3 years of good motoring.

    Till the day I signed off on the trade of the car, I have to say the looks are really one of the few things that really make this car so special. Unlike the A6 and Merc E class, the BMW has that understated charm to it, making it so elegant and simple yet[...]
    It's not the best in some respects though. For a start, seat comfort is still not the best. I still found the E class with a better of seats - mainly in terms of materials. I always had this against BMW's Dakota leather, it feels worse than the leatherette used in a Porsche - and that's like the cheapest material on a Porsche! I never had this o[...]
