Question: what is the difference between kia optima and hyundai sonata?
Answer: If there's one clear difference between the two, it's that the Optima has a 245-hp engine, while the most powerful engine in the Sonata makes just 191 hp. The Optima isn't the sharpest midsize sedan to drive around corners, but it's more athletic than the Sonata. So, if performance is what you want, go with the Optima.
