The next generation Kia Magentis (also known as Optima in some markets) will make its public world premiere at the New York International Auto Show, which opens on Friday 2 April 2010.
Longer, lower and wider than the previous generation model, the new Magentis features a significantly longer wheelbase and will offer more space for people and cargo.
"A fresh design from the ground up, Kia’s latest generation of its popular D-segment sedan is completely transformed and embodies a bold, athletic and sporty visual energy."
The next generation Magentis will go on sale at Kia dealerships in the USA and in non-European markets from Autumn 2010, while sales in Europe will begin in Spring 2011.
