5 Reasons To Own A Kia!

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE

We're big fans of Kia vehicles around these parts, especially the Kia Optima, but we understand that some people might need some convincing to stray from the Big Three American automakers. There are plenty of reasons to buy a Kia, but here are top five.

1.Something for everyone. Kias model lineup is diverse, and features something for all tastes and needs. If you’re in need of a traditional family sedan, you’ll be pleased with the Forte sedan. Got a big family? The Sedona minivan will be more to your liking. If you want the versatility of an SUV, you’ll want to check out the Sorento and the Sportage. If you want something a bit hipper, the Soul has been making waves. Meanwhile, the Optima is a classier sedan, and is also available as a hybrid. The Forte Koup will appeal to drivers who want something a bit sportier. Were willing to bet that at least one of these has caught your eye.

2.A commitment to innovation. Kia is constantly coming up with innovative concept vehicles. While most of these won’t see the roadways, the innovations that they pioneer will contribute to steps forward in Kias lineup.

3.Impressive warranty coverage. When you buy a Kia, you’ll be able to rest easy knowing that your investment is protected. New Kia vehicles come with a 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty, a 5-year/60,000-mile limited basic warranty, a 5-year/100,000-mile limited anti-perforation warranty, and 5-year/60,000-mile 24-hour roadside assistance coverage.

4.Affordable prices. You’re getting a lot, sure, but Kia vehicles have proven to be some of the greatest automotive bargains available. The 2012 Rio starts out at only $13,900, for instance, while the 2012 Forte starts at $15,200. Want a hybrid, but worried about the up-front cost? The 2012 Optima Hybrid has a base MSRP of only $25,700.

5.Theyre creating jobs in the United States. Kia recently opened their first North American manufacturing facility. Kia Motors Manufacturing Georgia began production of the 2011 Sorento in November 2009, and started producing the 2012 Optima toward the end of 2011. When this plant reaches its production peak, it will be making 300,000 Kia vehicles each year.
