Did your 7.25% discount off MSRP include any Kia rebates? That’s a strong deal for a 2025. Beautiful choice, by the way.

I got a similar discount. Dealers seem more open to negotiating lately, especially towards the year-end.

Makes sense, especially with end-of-year pressure. Thanks for explaining!
@RichardMiller
Yeah, I think the 2024 models should be going for at least 10% off with rebates. Some VINs even have an extra $1,000 off. Rumours of a 2026 refresh might also be a factor.

Thanks! The 7.25% discount includes all rebates, if any. My sale document didn’t show specific rebates—just the discount. The 2025 model only had a $1,000 Kia bonus cash offer, but it required financing with Kia at a higher APR. I opted for a cash deal and negotiated a $51k sale price, which brought the out-the-door cost to $55k, including taxes and fees.

Got it. That’s a great breakdown. Always a good idea to separate dealer discounts from manufacturer rebates to avoid surprises with taxes. Thanks for sharing the details.
