• Electronic Stability Control

    Rated by the NHTSA as what could be the greatest safety innovation since the safety belt, ESP compares the movement of your car with steering-wheel inputs. If there is any tendency to slide or skid, the system is designed to brake one or more of the wheels and, if necessary, reduce the engine power. The NHTSA has reported that passenger vehicles have a 30% reduction in fatal single vehicle crashes when equipped with ESP.
  • Emergency Stop Signal

    Sudden braking automatically triggers the brake lights to start flashing to warn the driver behind you.
  • Hillstart Assist Control

    We know what it’s like when you have to pull away from a standing start when you’re on a steep upward incline. HAC stops you from rolling backwards enabling you to takeoff more smoothly.
  • Rear Parking Sensors

    Reversing sensors are an aid that makes a audible noise as the driver gets closer to an object. The tone will increase in intensity as the drivers gets close to any object.  This is also supplement by a display in the instrument cluster.
  • Dual Front, Side and Curtain Airbags

    The Optima features a comprehensive Airbag System as standard.  Front and Side Airbags protect the front seat occupants in both Front and Side Collisions whilst full length Curtain airbags will deploy in severe lateral impacts.
  • Daytime Running Lights (DRL)

    Daytime Running Lights remain on at all times whilst your headlights are off to ensure optimal visibility to other motorists.  The LX models feature a bulb type whilst the EX model has a bright and sophisticated LED type arrangement.
