Depreciation Value

Used vehicles are a great choice because they’ve already faced the bulk of their depreciation. This refers to the value a vehicle loses as time goes on. While all vehicles face this, newer vehicles are hit harder. In fact, the value of a new vehicle drops as soon as it’s driven off the lot. It will continue to do so for a couple of years until it slows down. Not all models are built the same. A vehicle’s depreciation value depends on several factors, including age, condition, and market demand.

The Benefits of EVs

EVs are a great choice for drivers due to their lower maintenance and service costs. These vehicles eliminate common costs, like regular oil changes. On average, BEV owners can save between 40 and 50% on maintenance costs compared to those who own gas-powered vehicles. Not to mention, they also save money on operating costs. It can cost 10 times less to charge an EV compared to filling up a gas-powered vehicle to go the same distance.

Certified Pre-Owned Kia 

If you’re on the hunt for a used EV, Kia is the way to go. Our manufacturer offers strong performance, reliability, and a CPO program. Vehicles have completed exhaustive testing to ensure dependability. This includes a 149-point inspection that covers the powertrain and other mechanical components inside and outside the vehicle. The program also offers an optional Kia Protect Extended Protection Warranty that offers five years of coverage after the manufacturer’s warranty expires.
