Higher-volume years tend to draw more shoppers because they usually give you more choices, easier comparison shopping, and a better chance of finding the right trim, mileage, and price combination. They also tend to be the years where the market has had the most time to settle into a broad used-car supply.

Should I buy a used Kia Optima Hybrid now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

  • Sweet-spot year: The 2014 model has the most listings.

If you're buying used today, the 2014 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the newest version, it may be worth waiting for 2021 inventory to mature.
