Privileged with beautiful landscapes, at Lithia Kia of Anchorage we know that environmental conservation is important to drivers in our region. That's why we're delighted by the importance our favorite Korean automaker puts on fuel-economy. Better yet, they do so by creating hybrid models that are both eco-friendly and match consumers' need for speed.
In fact, since 2011 the auto brand has been bringing performance-driven and environmentally-conscientious drivers together, offering them a model that suits all their needs. Of course, we're referring to the Kia Optima Hybrid. And, happily, the 2013 edition has an added boost of efficiency and power.
Starting with the powertrain, the 2013 Optima Hybrid achieves a hearty 199 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque to boot. The thrilling gusto of the new Kia is provided by a fresh 47kW lithium polymer battery, 47hp electric traction and a lively Hybrid Starter Generator.
We understand; with those vigorous stats you may think that kind of strength can't possibly be green, even with the aforementioned powertrain. Kia proves that's not the case; the 2013 Optima Hybrid earns an EPA-estimated 36mpg city and 40mpg highway.
Intrigued? It'd be hard not to be. To arrange a test drive of the Optima Hybrid, or your preferred model, we invite you to stop by our showroom to meet with the experts. During your visit we're happy to review the specs in detail. If you fall in love immediately, our Kia lease gurus are onsite at our Anchorage, AK dealership to answer any questions!
