While some might call the Soul compact car a "wagon", there is no true estate car offering within the new Kia model lineup; and some of us at Lion Country are downright heartbroken about that.

We were given a brief glimmer of hope last year at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, when the Kia SPORTSPACE concept rolled onto the stage in all of its big, beautiful, wagony glory. But that was short-lived.

Then again, at this year's Geneva Motor Show, we were teased with yet another long-backed model--but this one was ready for production. Its badge states the name…

At Lion Country Kia, we're as excited as anyone that today is National Pizza Day. You know what's funny? In order to spell "pizzazz", you need pizza -- and Kia is all about pizzazz, especially when it comes to the all-new 2016 Kia Optima.

When it comes to unique vehicle personalities, Kia leads the rest. Models like the Kia Sportage offer dependable performance and versatile style, encouraging sporty efficiency. Have you heard the latest regarding this compact crossover's 4th generation redesign?

The 2017 Kia Sportage will be available in three different trims: LX, EX, and SX. The different trims will allow drivers to choose their power and efficiency levels, offering options for either a 2.4-liter engine or a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine.

A veritable do-it-all daily driver, the spanking-new 2016 Kia Optima is, in our humble opinion, one of the finest four-doors on the road today.

Don't quite buy it? Suspect that we at Lion Country Kia are just blowing smoke? Well, think again. Get the straight dope about the overhauled Optima from our friends at Autotrader. Their review is available in the clip below:

While each and every engine within the Optima lineup is excellent, we believe it's the mid-level iteration that just may make the strongest push for your business.

“The fact that the Soul has consistently won top honors in the Urban category is testimony to its widespread appeal among young buyers who need a stylish-yet-versatile vehicle that is small enough to navigate crowded urban areas, and spacious enough to hold multiple passengers and a variety of gear.”

The Kia Soul offers competitive style and performance options for any driver, whether city or country bound. This hatchback offers maximum interior space, so no one (and nothing) gets left behind, no matter where your adventure might take you. We at Lion Country Kia can't say we're surprised the quirky car took home the Active Lifestyle Vehicle Award in the Urban category for the third year in a row.

If you're in the market for a model offering the best of both world's when it comes to stylish features and reliable performance, the 2015 Kia Optima has what you're looking for. The standard midsize family sedan has never been so visually dynamic -- or practical.

College is a time for new experiences. It's a time to find yourself and discover what you're capable of. When the kids go off to school this fall, make sure they're well-taken care of in a 2015 Kia Soul.

Kelley Blue Book even included this models on its "10 Best Back-to-School Cars 2015" list. Check out the full article below.
