Vehicle Highlights
More power and freshened looks highlight Kia's largest car for 2007. The 2007 Kia Amanti again comes in a single trim level with a V6 engine, but replaces a 200-horsepower 3.5-liter with a 264-horse 3.8. The only transmission is a 5-speed automatic. ABS is standard, as are front and rear side airbags and curtain side airbags. Traction control and antiskid control are optional. Power-adjustable pedals are newly available in a freshened interior with a redesigned dashboard. Exterior styling is also revised, as is the suspension. Available options include leather upholstery, heated front seats, and a sunroof. This evaluation of the 2007 Kia Amanti is based on preview test drives.
