As the automotive industry shifts toward electrification, Kia continues to position itself at the forefront of this movement with its latest round of customer offers. Running from October 1 to December 16, 2024, these promotions not only enhance the appeal of Kia’s electric and hybrid models but also provide existing customers with attractive incentives to make the switch to electric vehicles (EVs).
Competitive Financing Options
Kia’s offerings this quarter showcase competitive financing options designed to ease the transition to electric mobility. Customers can take advantage of a low 3.9% APR on all fully electric models, including the newly launched Kia EV3, new EV6, EV9, and Niro EV. This financing option comes with no minimum customer deposit, making it accessible for a broader range of buyers. Additionally, a generous £1,500 Finance Deposit Contribution (FDC) is available for the new EV6 and Niro EV, further sweetening the deal.
Existing Customers Benefit
In a bid to reward loyalty, Kia has introduced the ‘Kia EV Finance Upgrade,’ allowing existing Kia Finance customers to save £1,000 when switching to a fully electric model. This initiative underscores Kia’s commitment to sustainability while fostering brand loyalty among its customers.
Comprehensive Benefits for Electric Vehicle Buyers
The allure of Kia’s electric lineup extends beyond just financing options. Buyers of the EV3, new EV6, EV9, and Niro EV will receive one year of free Kia Charge Plus subscription, providing seamless access to over 800,000 charging points across the UK and Europe. This subscription not only simplifies public EV charging but also offers a 15% discount on charging fees compared to the standard tariff, enhancing the economic viability of electric driving.
Highlights of the Electric Lineup
The Kia EV3 emerges as the brand’s most affordable compact electric SUV, starting at £32,995 on-the-road, with an impressive WLTP range of up to 372 miles. The Kia EV9, recently crowned 2024 World Car of the Year, offers spacious seating for up to seven and comes equipped with 20-inch alloy wheels on the ‘GT-Line’ trim. These models exemplify Kia’s blend of affordability, innovation, and practicality.
Hybrid and Traditional Models
For those considering hybrid and internal combustion engine (ICE) options, Kia offers 5.9% APR on popular models such as the Stonic, XCeed, and Niro HEV. The Kia Sportage now features the new ‘Shadow’ trim, available with a 1.6-litre T-GDi petrol engine paired with a 48V mild-hybrid battery system, enhancing both efficiency and performance. Starting at £32,890, the Shadow edition includes exclusive styling features like a Midnight Green interior pack and three premium paint options, appealing to style-conscious buyers.
