KIA-OPIRUS
The Koreans called the style in which the exterior of the new flagship is sustained, neoclassicism. Comfort and handling, manufacturers say, are combined with a "classic, never aging look." As a result, Opirus is a rehash of motifs familiar from Mercedes and the Jaguar. Well, role models, indeed, have chosen classic ones.
The interior of the five-meter car is spacious. The trip will be pleasant both for the driver, whose seat has eight electric adjustments, and for passengers. The interior decoration looks quite decent and not rich in Korean. Of course, there is an air conditioning system on board that separately “uses” the driver and passenger on the right, and the color display visually displays the weather in the cabin. The American Opirus audio system with eight speakers, six channels and 270 watts of sound power will satisfy even the picky music lover.
In a car gaining 220 km / h, eight airbags are out of place (as standard). And, of course, electronic traction control, braking and ABS systems will help to avoid an accident. To prevent an attacker from robbing you of your car, the Opirus is equipped with an immobilizer whose microcircuit is hidden in the ignition key. Pressing a button on it will unlock the central lock, and the motor will not work if the lock contains a master key instead of a native key.
