Kia Magentis, 2001 - 2005
The Kia Magentis is a mid-size sedan built on the Hyundai Sonata platform. The first models were characterized by numerous mechanical failures, especially due to electric windows. The Magentis is a true family car offering plenty of space and comfort at a low price. In these respects, it outperforms the Camry or Accord. Despite the weak engine, the Magentis is well-operated, quiet and soft, looks more expensive than it really is, but it lacks economy, dynamics, quality and is prone to lack of maneuverability.
