Kia's passion for affordable luxury is becoming more and more evident as the models years pass. The brand is not just about quirky, whimsical vehicles and their furry spokeshamsters, as you might have assumed. Sure, the little guys still get some airtime, but there are seriously sophisticated luxuries to be had in the brand's upcoming lineup, many of which can be found in the latest Kia Optima.
The 2016 Optima, specifically, offers added refinement in the form of a more accommodating cabin and trunk, a more responsive yet efficient turbocharged engine, and better sound dampening. With five distinct trim levels and such standard niceties as a rear view camera and Bluetooth connectivity, it's clear that Kia values high-quality conveniences and craftsmanship.
The brand's meticulous dedication to its craft is a philosophy shared by Throne Watches, a hand-sewn leather watch and wallet company based in New York City. Kia spotlights co-founder Greg Mills and fellow Throne Watches craftsmen in the latest episode of its "Obsessively Crafted" video series. Check it out below, and if you have questions about the upcoming Optima after you catch a few glimpses of the car in the closing scene, feel free to ask the sales reps anything, here at Kia of Waldorf. We love to talk shop, and we can even show you around the 2015 Optima while we anxiously anticipate the 2016 model!
