2017 Kia Niro Hybrid

INDIANAPOLIS — Whoever said a compact fuel-sipping hybrid couldn’t also be cool? Perhaps it needs to be aerodynamic, but it doesn’t have to look like an out-of-control science project merged with some sci-fi future-set flick. An efficient little hybrid could just look like a crossover. And, it could still have all of the technology and utility expected in a cutting-edge ride. At least that’s what Kia designers and engineers apparently thought as they conjured the Niro.

Flying under the radar, the 2017 Kia Cadenza may be the best full-sized entry-level luxury sedan sold in the U.S. that's largely unknown by most shoppers in the segment. That's unfortunate because we found the all-new second-generation Cadenza one of the most pleasing sedans we've driven in recent times — regardless of size.

PHOENIX — When it comes to shopping for compact sedans, most buyers immediately think about small-car stalwarts like the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla, with good reason. They have an excellent reputation for quality construction, reliability, and bang for the buck — and those manufacturers spend a lot of money on advertising.

INDIANAPOLIS — Kia’s little Soul is much more than a uniquely styled little box, aimed at first-time buyers, club queens, or a teenage fashion diva.  Well into its second generation, it’s proven to exude competence and driving pleasure beyond what may be your first impressions.  Stoking it with a new turbocharged engine makes it a practical and comfy ride for driving enthusiasts.

Does the all new Kia Cadenza sedan have what it takes to be a major contender in the import luxury car arena? I think it does! First unveiled at the New York International Auto Show earlier this year, the second generation 2017 Cadenza took center stage and captivated the audience.

Kia this spring introduced an all-new 2017 Sportage, the fourth generation of the longest running compact crossover nameplate. Although the Sportage is built in Korea, it was designed in Kia's Frankfurt studio under the watchful eye of Peter Schreyer who worked for Audi several years ago. And it comes at just the right time for the surging Kia brand because the compact crossover segment is exploding in popularity, outperforming the more traditional sedans in the segment.

The Sportage is Kia's longest running nameplate, and its continued longevity should be insured with an all-new fourth-generation 2017 model that features contemporary design elements that give it a striking appearance from bumper to bumper with smooth curves and sharp body creases.

SAN DIEGO — You only need to look around you and it's easy to see that the compact crossover SUV, or CUV as many like to call it, has become one of the most popular type of vehicle on the road. It's not surprising perhaps as these car-based SUVs are more like a car — dare we say it, they are more akin to a hatchback or small station wagon — than they are a traditional truck-based SUV.

Kia Optima — Solid advancement

The Kia Optima was the object of an extreme makeover for the 2011 model year under the direction of chief designer Peter Schreyer evolving from a nondescript ugly duckling mid-sized sedan devoid of emotional attachment into a head-turning automobile, a standout among its large cadre of rivals. The restyling — both inside and out — turned the Optima into a mid-sized segment rock star, one of the most dramatic turnarounds in industry history.
