I bought the 1.6 l turbo model, it is by far the WORST ever !!! seriously underpowered, the transmission clutters so badly at first gear, you have a feeling it will disintegrate, on stop and go conditions the shacking extremely violent you have to press on the gas paddle to increase revolutions on the engine, that will propel forward but you have no place to go, this creates a dangerous situation and safety issues which will cost lives ... KIA says this is normal !!! they have issued a bulletin telling consumers not to worry!!! check this out. The government will have to react after deaths are reported, it will be too late! AVOID this model under any circumstances!
