KIA OPTIMA AND SORENTO RECEIVE FAMILY HONORS FROM PARENTS MAGAZINE

When Parents Magazine set out to award the honors for “Best Family Cars of 2012,” the household magazine approached the car experts at Edmunds.com for help. The decision was taken very seriously, as coming up with a family vehicle with safety, room, efficiency and comfort is no laughing matter. With that said, we here at Berlin City Kia VT are excited and honored to announce that not one, but indeed, two Kia vehicles made the Parents Magazine list.

The first question of course: Which models made the cut? We happy to say they are the 2012 Kia Optima mid-size sedan and the 2012 Kia Sorento crossover vehicle. May the record state that both of these Kia models are built right here in the US. Yet, just being “Made in the USA” doesn’t put you on Parents Magazine by default. Both the Kia Optima and Kia Sorento are extraordinary family vehicles in their own right, and offer growing families many desired features in the way of comfort, safety (IIHS ‘Top Safety Picks’), ease of use and utility.

To help solidify the case for the Optima and Sorento, Dana Points, editor-in-chief of Parents Magazine states, “Buying a new car is a big family decision and our guide makes the process easier… the Optima and Sorento made our list because they are safe and affordable, plus they have smart, family-friendly features to make kids and parents happy.” 1
