Instantly recognizable yet thoroughly fresh, Kia will introduce the all-new 2016 Kia Optima SX at the upcoming New York Auto Show on April 1st at 1:20 PM. 

Available with multiple engine choices, the all-new Optima features a more spacious interior, class-up premium features and a number of technologies not previously offered on Kia’s best-selling mid-size sedan. #KiaOptima #NYIAS.

First impressions from our followers are that Kia lose his identity, fail updating its best selling model, it looks like to Toyota Camry design. We prefer to wait until we can see more pictures, but yeah, the front end looks close to the japanese model…

The South Korean spec model will be revealed in April 2nd at Seoul Motor Show.

    You're an idiot. It doesn't look like a Camry. At all.

      Yes, new Optima and new Sonata are both too handsome to be compared to a boxier junk called Camry.

    Jimbo the comparisons you cite are subtle differences that will hardly register to consumers interested in either vehicle. However, outside of the similarities you highlighted, each car is set apart by its own distinctive design.

    But I need to agree Jimbo in the part that the american Optima and the Camry are very close if you look to the front. Anyway, the pictures of the korean version made me to change this opinion.

    You do know that Kia did that "kinked" headlight on the previous Forte.
