YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
This car is spacious and very easy to get into and out of. It allows one to sit up high and still have plentiful headroom. see full Hyundai Azera review
2008 4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Easy step-in combined with excellent headroom means my 96 year old mother in law can get in and out without effort! She can cross her legs when seated. see full Hyundai Azera review
2008 4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.8L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
The pitch between front and rear seats is huge. The rear door opens wider than almost any other current model, and my 97 year old mother in law can get in and out easily. see full Hyundai Azera review

After driving the Optima for five days straight for 10+ hours per day, other than the occasional stop, on a road trip, not one time did I get a sore back or thighs. see full Kia Optima review
