The Optima made its debut in the United States in 2001 and was an instant hit for the automaker Kia. Facing tough competition, Kia had to create a unique mid-size sedan that would satisfy the needs of a variety of consumers with quality amenities and features at an affordable car price. The Optima increased Kia's share of the market and initial Kia Optima reviews were quite favorable, praising the mid-size sedan as a well-built alternative to Toyota and Honda. First generation cars were mostly marketed as the Optima, although the Kia Magentis nameplate was used in Europe and Canada when sales began there in 2002.
