Any of the children can be identified with the nature and lives of the parents whom he belongs!! So, even to know this latest model of Amanti, it is necessary to know the parental Company, Kia and its glorious past!!

The Classy Company:

Kia Amanti is the company that is having the most inspiring and impressive history. The foundation of the company was laid long back in 1944 in Korea with the name of Kyungsung Industrial Company Limited. Progress of the company was quite realistic and rare as within just six years of age, the company came up as one of the largest bicycle manufacturers of the country. The aim of the company was clear to the world to possess the top place in the entire automotive industries when in late 60’s company launched the truck model, T-600. This was truly revolutionary step!!

The company became real giant when they became the first ever car exporter of Korea in 1975. This progress brought the company into the World Map of Car industries!! Since then, the growth of the company is actually envy producing for any competitors!! Kia started introducing some of the most rocking and stylish designer cars year after year like Capital in 1989, the Charismatic Carnival in 1998 and many more that thrashed the car industries.

The Hyundai-Kia tie-up in 1999 was the beginning of new era in the history of the company. After joining hands, who can stop ever to two of the giants of the automotive world?!! They introduced some of the most glamorous cars to the word naming Cerato, Regal, Sportage, The new avatar of Carnival and so many models that created an earthquake in the entire industries. The company captured the China market by planting the newer segment there and so as in Georgia!! Recently they have won the most prestigious Presidential Award for Design Management!!

So, it is quite revealing and obvious that the Amanti is the child of a huge company and is truly satisfying the name that it is holding!!

The Spectacular Style:

The look of the car is revising memories of so many luxurious sedans as there are quite lot similarities in the older models and this latest version. But still, the company has managed to make the Sedan special by giving a classy touch to this tall and nice symmetrical Car. The Headlights seems like the halogens as they are the brightest features of the luxurious legend. These Headlights are used of the Xenon High Intensity Dicharge system that is totally newer for this sector of sedans.  The gorgeous grilles are the greeting features of the company!!

The look of the car is simply like the ultra luxury cars and it is One of the most touching cars that are having full faux wood and also the massive looked metallic accents with the luxurious leather covered front console. There is a split-level-two-tone Colour combination available with adorable analog clock and also with the splendid screen that shows all the information that are required by the driver and these facilities and fantastic look is rare to find even in the similar shaped Mercedes.

So, style wise Kia Amanti is an elegant looked Sedan with much better and sober design!!

The Pivotal Performance:

Performance of Amanti is purely unmatchable in the same class of Sedan. The 3.8 litre V6 rated engine is more powerful than even than the engines of Nissan, Toyota or even the Chrysler that are actually higher priced than Amanti. This highly efficient engine is the most powerful one as it produces 264 hp and 260 pound-feet of torque.

The acceleration of the car is also the awesome ones and is truly sportier that provides enjoyment and inspiration to even the drivers. This statement can be proved with the fact that 0-60 speed can be achieved by Amanti in merely 6.9 seconds!! So, it’s a recreational experience to drive the Sedan.

The Fantastic Fuel Efficiency:

The Sedan is quite comprehensive as the performance of the car is quite attractive. But, performance is not the only thing that is all required by the car users, the decisive factor includes that fuel efficiency of the car. This Sedan is also having a better average that makes a sense to this class of luxurious Sedans.

The EPA rate of the car is 17 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway.

The Terrific Technology:

There are some of the specialities that are incomparable with any of the similar Sedans. There is a five speed automatic transmission with manual shift controlling that makes the car more enthusiastic and energetic. The other technically stronger point of the Sedan is the softer suspension that keeps away to the insiders from feeling the bumps unless they are quite sharper. The brakes sound somewhat inefficient to have a sudden stop but otherwise everything is averagely good. All these features convey one thing quite screamingly that the ride quality of the Amanti is truly good.

The Attractive Amenities:

Nothing in the world is bought without attraction. People are influenced lot by offers. Kia is aware of this fact and henceforth they have introduced the awesome offer of 5 year warranty for the comprehensive part, Powertain and also for the Roadside Assistance for 100,000 km. that is almost the double warranty period than all the other Sedans.

The Safety Superiorities:

Safety is the superior concern even that the exterior and Kia has the style of following this rule religiously. Even in Amanti, they have arranged the special feature of Dual front and Dual rear seat mounted side airbags along with the dual advanced front airbags. The Electric Stability Control and also the Traction Control System are the powerful point of the Sedan as they are quite impressive feature in comparison with other cars in these features.

Moral of the Story:

The Sedan introduced by the Korean Legend Kia, Amanti is a mind blowing performance car. There are some areas that sound not upto the standard of Kia like the styling that is somewhat traditional, the suspension that lacks the effectivity while sharper bumps and also the steering that puts a boring impression in the minds of the drivers as the style of steering is vague. But, seeing overall, this is the car that has roots quite deeper in the minds of the users and therefore does make a sense of buying!!
