2017 Kia Optima interior
About the only thing more comfortable than a Kia Optima is a Kia Optima with leather seats. While the Kia brand is known more for practicality, the Optima is drawing attention from those that prefer a little bit of luxury. There are three Kia Optima trims that come standard with leather seats. EXThe EX features standard leather seating at an affordable price point so consumers can enjoy luxury comfort on an economy budget. SXThe turbocharged performance of the Optima SX is complemented by the black sport leather seating with red stitching. Or if red stitching just isn’t enough, you can go for the optional red Merlot leather seating to bring the same vibrancy to the interior that is found under the hood.SX Limited The highest trim level of the Optima model comes standard with sleek quilted nappa leather seating. Nappa leather is even softer than traditional leather and is dyed with water-soluble colorants to make the material more resistant to light. Nappa leather is also easier to clean than standard leather.
