2017 Kia Optima vs. 2017 Toyota Camry
It's a fairly well-known fact that the Toyota Camry has been the best-selling sedan since what seems like forever, or every year for the past 15 years. It's also a fairly well-known fact that the most popular vehicle doesn't always equal the best quality, style or features. Which is why if you've been considering the 2017 Toyota Camry, we got here just in time to show you some of the benefits of the 2017 Kia Optima.
Do you like award-winning design, safety recognized as among the best in its class, and a more spacious interior than most midsize sedans? Then the 2017 Optima fills the bill, as it not only has a couple recent IIHS Top Safety picks in its resume, but a massive interior with 104.8 cubic feet for passengers, or a nice upgrade from the 2017 Camry's 102.7 cubic feet. The 2017 Optima also can be yours at Friendly Kia with our VIP price for less than $17,000 while the 2017 Camry runs around $24,000 on competing lots.

Camry Can't Compare to the Optima in the Tampa, Clearwater and St. Petersburg FL Area
Not only is the 2017 Kia Optima the sedan with a lower price and added features like a warranty that is tops in the industry at 10 years or 100,000 miles for limited powertrain coverage vs. the Camry's five years or 60,000 miles of limited powertrain coverage, the Optima also has more base power and greater fuel economy than the 2017 Camry.
