2001 KIA Sephia

Pros: Great features for the money, gas mileage, storage space.

Cons: Doesn't impress people who put spud shooter mufflers and Auto Zone spoilers on their cars.

The Bottom Line: This car is the perfect dingy. If properly maintained and not abused the car is trouble free.

Review: This car was bought in a pinch. My wife's old car before blew the rings in its engine and she neede ...

Pros: price, warranty, everything

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this car to anyone with not a lot of money and needs a really good reliable car.

Review: This is one of the best cars I have ever owned. In the year that I have owned it I have never had any major problems. The only problem that I did have was the gauges on the dashboard broke and I ran out of gas because it said I had half a tank. Called...

Pros: Price, Features, Room, Reliability, Performance without the cost!

Cons: none!

The Bottom Line: After owning this one I would most definately buy another. Rent one for a weekend- and see for yourself!

Review: It can not be beat for cost and features! It has ample room to accomodate my tall wife with plenty of head room and leg room. It is very comfortable to ride in. Plenty of passing power. Fairly good gas milage 30-32 in town 34-37 on highway- at 12000 ...

Pros: Good mileage, Good Pickup, Better than average room.

Cons: Poor turning radius for small car. Poor Customer service at dealership.

The Bottom Line: I truly recommend the car. The dealership I could do without.

Review: If you are in the market for a good inexpensive car with a nice fit & finish, you could do worse than this car. The 2001 Kia Sephia is a fine automobile. Overall, the things it does, it does well. Excellent mileage. Good pickup, and the look of a more...

Pros: good car for the price

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: It's a great car for the price!

Review: I just bought a kid Sephia last week after buying the car I hear that they are junk! I have seen some bad opinion's on the 2000 year models . That does scare me . But I cant say this so for so good .The car is great it rides good , drive's good ,...

Pros: A nice car, with more room than some competitors and surprisingly speedy

Cons: the usual small car cons.

The Bottom Line: If you're looking for a new car at the 10-12 range, look no further than KIA. It tests better than many cars in its class with an unbeatable warranty

Review: Considering the domestic small cars in the same price range, this car is great. Compared to the Dodge Neon and Chevy Prism, this is a luxury car. Kia, new in the car game, has been making Sephia's since about '96 and they have improved.
I had...

Pros: Value price, front passenger amenities

Cons: Problematic at times

The Bottom Line: Overall, I am happy with my purchase, and would buy another one.

Review: WALK AROUND
On the exterior, the car looks simple and stark. With a cute face and a nice rear(hmm are we still talking about cars?) The car looks great. You will not stand out in traffic by any means. The rear tail lights reach around the back,...

Pros: milage 35 mpg 5 speed

Cons: seats are a bit uncomfortabale for long trips

Review: Our first Sephia has 130k on it and it runs and looks great. I understand that they had some serious bugs with brakes and trannies but this car has not had any of the often mentioned problems. The check engine light came on at about 100k because of a ...

Pros: Great gas mileage, runs great, decent stereo, attractive

Cons: None that I have found

Review: I bought my Kia used a few years back. I'm probably the most recent reviewer on here since it is a 2001. It's not THE greatest car ever, but for a pretty inexpensive pricetag, I think it's great. I bought it used from a dealer (I actually, NOW think I ...

Pros: For the price, warranty, gas mileage it could be a good first car.

Cons: Concerns about the class action suit for the 1998-2000 Sephia Kia.

The Bottom Line: For the price, warranty, gas mileage it could be a good first car for a first car buyer. Concerns about the class action suit for the 1998-2000 Sephia Kia.

Review: What seems like a dorky title is factually far more intense than it appears. We watch these relatively new vehicles come out, for example the Yugo a failed automotive venture, Daewoo is beginning to look a little shaky (a little?). Watching the...
