1.Value Your Trade

When you trade in a Kia car, you can apply the value of your current ride toward your new Kia vehicle, so the first step to trading in your model is to see how much it is worth.

Luckily, our dealership makes this easy. Use our online Kelley Blue Book® Instant Cash Offer tool. Using Kelley Blue Book values, this calculator will take into account the information regarding your Kia vehicle and create an accurate offer.

What If I Still Owe on My Current Ride?

It’s still easy to trade in a Kia vehicle that you owe money on.

If the amount of the outstanding loan balance is less than the value of the ride, you can still apply the remaining value toward the cost of your new Kia vehicle. For instance, if a driver owes $2,000 on a ride valued at $10,000, they can then apply $8,000 toward the cost of the new Kia vehicle.

If the outstanding loan balance is less than the value of the ride, it’s still possible to trade it in. Pay the remaining loan balance in one sum or combine the loan from the previous model and the loan of the new one.

Our expert financial team has years of experience working with drivers with diverse needs. We can craft custom solutions that work for you.

2.Prepare Your Kia Car for Sale

Once you have your trade-in value, it’s time to start preparing your Kia car for sale. To do this, you’ll need to gather the necessary paperwork:

• Title or loan information
• Maintenance records

Then, it’s important to clean the model thoroughly. Remove any personal items, vacuum the interior, and get a wash.

If your Kia vehicle needs minor repairs, take care of those too. Keep an eye out for any recalls as well. This extra bit of effort results in a better-looking and -performing Kia vehicle, which can potentially net you a higher offer while trading in.

3.Find Your Next New Ride

Now that your current ride has a trade-in value and a fresh shine, it’s time to start looking at what you want to drive home next. The trade-in value can help you set a budget for your new Kia vehicle.

Researching your next ride is easy on our site. You can search through everything we have on our lot from the comfort of your home. Sort results using filters for price, model year, make, color, and even special features, like sunroofs, heated seats, and more.  

Once you find a few models that pique your interest, schedule a test drive!
