Amanti (Opirus) slices through the air like a jet

and surprising fuel economy.
EXPERIENCE THE NEW KIA THE VERSATILE VENGA
Venga is a car designed exclusively for the European
market. We began with the observation that other
companies’ MPVs sacriced too much style with
their singular focus on functionality. Our designers
applied Kia’s signature grille to the front prole,
expanded the window coverage and carved out a
panoramic sunroof to ood the cabin with natural
light. The result is a new-concept city-styled MPV
that showcases the innovation and inspiration that
drives Kia’s success.

stress from the driving experience.
RESPONDS TO YOUR LIFE
The new front and rear architecture of the
refreshed Optima (All-new Optima/K5) signal the
many satisfying changes that Kia has introduced
to its popular sedan. A passionate mid-size car
that loves the road, Optima (All-new Optima/K5)
is grand when you want it to be, but sporty and
fun when you feel like dressing down.

space. Sit back, unwind and let your imagination
