Kia Optima 1.7 CRDi 2 Luxe Saloon 4dr Diesel Auto Euro 5 (134

The most surprising thing about the new Kia Optima Sportswagon is that the Korean manufacturer hasn't made one before. Even sister company Hyundai has a wagon in this segment, the i40 Tourer, going up against the old benchmark Ford Mondeo Estate and slinky-looking Mazda 6 Estate. For the time being there is only one engine, a 1.7-litre diesel, until the performance-biased petrol GT comes along in 2017. The standard unit should appeal to fleet drivers though with 113g/km of CO2, just three grams more than the saloon. In fact Kia reckons three-quarters of Optima Sportswagons will go to company car drivers. Manual cars also crack the 0-62mph sprint in less than 10 seconds, with the diesel motor providing suitable mid-range punch for overtaking. With its sights set firmly on the company car market, Kia is hoping to find new customers for this pragmatic and smartly styled estate.The Optima Sportswagon has the same dashboard layout as the saloon, with the buttons and central screen aimed towards the driver. The touchscreen is very responsive and laid out in an easy to navigate manner. Fit and finish is to a high standard, and there's a pleasing lack of cheap plastic or rattling trim panels. There are quite a lot of buttons on the wheel and by the gearshift though, especially in high spec cars that come with a lot of kit. The upside of this slightly cluttered look is you can find the seat ventilation controls without looking. Satin chrome trim looks smart and doesn't glare unde 12V Power Socket - Front, 18in Alloy Wheels, 3 x Passenger Assist Grips, 6-Speaker System, 60-40 Split Folding 2nd Row Seats, ABS - Anti Lock Braking System, Active ECO Switch, Air Conditioning - Dual Automatic Climat, Air Filter, Airbags - Driver, Airbags - Front Side, Airbags - Passenger, Airbags - Twin Curtain, Alarm System, All-Round Height Adjustable Headrests, Armrest - Centre Console with Storage, Armrest - Door - Artificial Leather Trim, Artifical Leather and Woodgrain Centre C, Auto Dimming Rear-View Mirror, Automatic Defog System, Automatic Headlight Control, BAS - Brake Assist System, Black Front Calipers, Black High Gloss and Chrome Front Side G, Black High Gloss Door Frame, Blue
