Have this car and the EV kilometers on a full battery is even more then KIA is promising. Around town I can get upto 67 EV km. I guess that is something like 41 miles. Great car!
Hi there mate i am considering to buy the kia optima plug in hybrid as estate. Would you recommend me buying this car? And what has been your experience so far since you owned it?
A lot of reviews and reviewers are not concerned about what he is saying and what this video is really about, grow up guys and be a bit considerate and show some respect and if you have nothing to say what this video is really about then keep mum about the nonsense comments.
Stop marvelling about how all the technology works together, its the same in all hybrids, start telling us more about the recharging time, the space inside, boot capacity, safety, running costs.eople buy estate cars because they need the loading space - this video doesn't show anything of this.
Hallo zusammen ich habe den kia Optima GT Benziner Automatik von 2019 neu gekauft einer der letzten gebauten Benziner Automatik volle Hütte ich bin total begeistert heute wird er in August Drei Jahre alt noch wie neu.
Don't be daft calling this better than a full EV. It's a good plug-in, it's a great car. Unfortunately, forgoing a hybrid drive train for an electric motor in place of the torque converter loses many of the advantages of electrification. Especially when that one electric motor system is unable to charge and power the wheel electrically at the same time.
Ok, good review, but you are not getting free range by regenerative braking. All it does is not waste the kinetic or potential energy you have built up by transferring it into heat. Instead, the battery gets recharged a little bit. So no free anything. There is no such thing as free energy in physics.
Hi, I have a KIA CEED PHEV 2022. I'm very disappointed how the hybrid system works. If it low temperature outside (below 10 C) then the petrol engine always starts if the so if im driving under 10km it never runs purly on electricity. Or if the AC is runing the petrol engien starts. So the petrol enginen is always running when heating or cooling... My advise, dont buy a KIA
A 10 minutes and 5 secs review and couldn't find 1 and half minute to talk about the rear seat head and leg room , neither boot/trunk space?? Bro, you seriously to work on your "car review" skills.
Has this 16yr old stolen the Kia just for the review? How many times does he describe things as 'really cool'? No more adjectives in his repertoire.......?
How is he managing to drive the car. He isn't even looking over the steering wheel. His line of sight is the top of the steering wheel
Good Lord, reviewer, raise the bloody seat. You look like a child behind the wheel.
Wth he must be looking between the steering wheel gap!
This must be a Tardis car: an extra 2 feet of height inside

ahtsham0 Did You buy the car?
What MPG on average you get?

Another good review as always, I think I will go for a phev next time, you get the best if both worlds. Any mpg which is 50 and over is amazing.
Bruh get a booster seat 🤣
Says the guy who hasn't hit puberty yet....
I wanted to type the same thing, was wondering how he could see from the windshield.
😭😭😭😭🤣
Great Video Review. Buyers should consider choosing the Kia Optima Sports PHEV
Good review, I have one and agree pretty much with all you have said. They are really good cars.
How does this compare to the Niro, Volt, Clarity, and Outlander?
The dashboard is above his sight.Is he able to see?
Sean the type of dude to......oh wait, wrong channel
Too bad we don't get this model in the US. Looks like a nice alternative to a crossover.
Why isn't this available in the US? Kia should consider putting in a charge button like in the outlander Phev.
It was a thorough explanation great job.
I think you’re the coolest person in the world FYI
Don't you mean shortest?
Thanks Man for this great review. I have a question though. Would you recommend this car as a taxi vehicle or as a regular long distance car?

It can actually. But the Toyota hybrid system is still better and simpler.
We do not get the estate version here in the U.S. nor the PHEV version. I want them BOTH!
Noooo! What are the alternatives in the US?
we can have the phev just not in sportswagon form. and we dont get the diesel either. o and no manual transmissions even in the gasoline version
alliejr what is phev and estate??
@@Sean-ci4vs plug-in hybrid electric vehicle and estate is english wording for wagon.

You don't even show the boot space

Bro, you seriously to work on your "car review" skills.
what is the charging socket 7.2 KWH AC and 50 KWH DC
Yes but maximum rate of charge is 3.3KWH for internal reasons
Is he sat on the floor
Great and cool car. Smoohter than Jags.
gud video
Thank you 😊
Jeez is he old enough to drive that car?
