Kia Buying Guide

KIA used cars

Kia is South Korea’s oldest car manufacturer, and this means it knows how to make a perfect family car.  

This formula can be seen in all its current models, including the Ceed, Rio, Sportage and Picanto. All these models, despite varying in size, are spacious and practical vehicles that won’t break the bank. 

History of KIA

Kia was founded in South Korea in 1944 and has since gone onto become a global superpower in the automotive industry. 

The ‘Kia’ name comes from the Sino-Korean characters ‘ki’, 'to arise' and ‘a’, meaning 'Asia’. This roughly translates to "Rising from (East) Asia". 

Since 1998, Kia has been part-owned by Hyundai, which has only added to its reliability and build quality. 

Standout KIA features

Despite being ‘budget’ cars, you do get a surprising amount of the best interior tech, which means you’re not left disconnected from the rest of the world when on the move in your used Kia.  

Through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, you can hook your smartphone up and answer any important calls that may come your way.  

Other optional extras include a heads-up display, adaptive cruise control, heated seats and parking cameras.  

In addition, you get some superb safety features such as blind spot monitoring, lane change assist, plenty of airbags, and the all-important ISOFIX points for child seats. It’s no wonder modern used Kia cars for sale score so highly in Euro NCAP crash tests. 

Driving a KIA 

Since Kia partnered with Hyundai, it’s been able to share components and engine parts, which has led to greater reliability and lower running costs because the engines are now so efficient. 

Additionally, Kia has gone all in on electric cars with offerings such as the EV6, Soul EV and Niro EV. EVs are, in theory, more reliable than petrol-engine cars simply because they have fewer moving parts.  

Charging costs do vary, but both types of powertrains are affordable to run relative to some rivals. We’d recommend buying a used Kia if you like to pinch your pennies (and who doesn’t?) and need a dependable motor to get you around without any faff. 

Popular used KIA cars

There are so many different used Kia cars for sale, with broad choices throughout. The most popular models include the Sportage SUV, Picanto city car and Ceed hatchback. 

Kia is also a big advocate for electric cars and offers a wide range, from the EV6 family car to the EV9 SUV and EV3.
