What this mod does

The Kia Optima JF, sold in Korea as the K5, is the fourth generation of Kia’s midsize sedan. Nimit turns it into a car you can buy and drive in Euro Truck Simulator 2, a simple, realistic alternative to sports cars for exploring the map with no trailer. He publishes it for free on his verified ModLand account, crediting Nimit and İsmail Kaan.

What’s included

  • Working front windows.
  • Properly adjusted wipers.
  • Realistically configured engine and gearbox.
  • High-quality exterior and interior.
  • Good physics and handling.

Driving tip

To reach top speed, you need to shift into fifth gear.

How to get it

After enabling it in the Mod Manager, go to any truck dealer, use the entrance to the mod dealer and look for the Kia brand.

Version and known issues

Nimit confirms 1.59 in the title and the changelog. There’s no confirmed version for 1.61, so it may throw errors there; Holyfix will let you know if it does. In the ModLand comments, a user asks the author to update it for 1.61, so for now there’s no confirmed version for that game version. He also publishes an ATS version on the same account.
