The Kia Lotze (hangul:기아 로체) is a Korea's midsize car built by Kia Motors for the Korean market. It was launched in November of 2005. The Lotze are mechanically identical to their sister car, the Hyundai Sonata. The Kia Lotze differs from the Sonata in terms of exterior styling, and some interior options. For example, later model year Lotzes used the same rear leather seats as the Hyundai Azera whereas the Hyundai Sonata received different (and arguably inferior) rear leather seats. Because of their mechanical similarity, the the Kia Lotze are similar in reliability to the Hyundai Sonata.
The Lotze is produced as the Optima for U.S. and Canadian markets by the Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama, a joint venture with Kia.[ Visit the complete Wikipedia entry for Kia Lotze ]
