- Consumers gravitate toward Kia’s quality and reliability
Kia Motors America announced its second-best October Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicle sales with 5,381 units sold, proving consumers are gravitating toward the brand’s quality and reliability. Double-digit gains for Kia’s Sportage helped power the brand’s sales.
Autodata’s[i] October CPO retail sales report confirms when it comes to pre-owned vehicles, Kia continues to attract attention with an overall 0.7-percent increase year-to-date compared to a 0.6-percent increase industrywide.
"Now is the perfect time for car shoppers to consider a CPO vehicle," said Edmunds Senior Analyst, Ivan Drury. "Dealers have a large volume of off-lease vehicles they can certify, which means consumers should be able to find a great selection. Given the hurricanes this summer, flood damaged vehicles are likely starting to enter the used car market, and buying CPO is an easy way to mitigate the risk."
