2.0 euro 6 d-temp engine with 240hp (reduced from 255)
new "frameless" 8 inch nav
new interior ambient light
modified texture of interior leather

Meh too much carbon fibre accents! The wheels are a bit average too. They are doing the same thing they did with the Optima in the second edition, mainly cosmetic but i do agree about the bolsters.

Yes, the dealer said this is due to the new emission standard (euro 6d temp) will be applicable for all new cars from 01-Sep in Europe.

The "modified texture of interior leather" is interesting... I wonder if KIA is going with another supplier of leather because of the issues with the current leather. The white blotches and stains that appear with the red nappa leather seats as well as side bolsters wearing out prematurely...
