Friendly Kia Shares Impressive Inventory of and Huge Savings on 2019 Kia Soul Crossovers
Tampa, Florida-area Kia dealer offers $5,000 or more in rebates to make room for new models.
NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla., April 26, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The early 2000s were an interesting era for the automotive market in North America. Members of the general public hadn't yet chosen crossovers as the next vehicle of choice, but the economic recession and increasing fuel prices pushed them out of the big, truck-based SUVs which had dominated the roads since the mid-1990s.
Attempting to preserve the cargo volume and utility to which drivers had become accustomed in their SUVs, while also getting a more fuel-efficient vehicle, automotive manufacturers introduced a quirky new segment – the box car. Box cars like the Nissan Cube, Honda Element, Scion xB and Kia Soul proved to drivers that they could have the cargo-friendly versatility of their old SUVs while enjoying miles-per-gallon figures north of 25.
As the only surviving member of that era and segment, drivers have made the Kia Soul a million-selling model, largely due to its signature value and capability that combine the best elements of an SUV and a small car.
While the third-generation 2020 Kia Soul begins to filter into dealerships, the staff at Friendly Kia – a new and used Kia dealership in New Port Richey – are encouraging those shopping for this combination to shop from the dealership's selection of over two-hundred 2019 Kia Soul models and save.
Beyond simply having such a large inventory they are looking to clear out to make room for the new models, Friendly Kia staff are seeking to draw the attention of shoppers everywhere to the 2019 model's differences, that some shoppers may prefer over the new model. Aside from simply the design, the 2019 Kia Soul differs from the incoming 2020 model in its features and specs.
For instance, drivers looking for the base model Kia Soul will find the 2019 model to feature a smaller 1.6-liter engine over the 2.0-liter engine in the 2020 model.
One of the features for which a driver may choose the 2019 Kia Soul over the 2020 model, is the panoramic sunroof. Available on many of the 2019 Kia Soul models at Friendly Kia, this feature was cut from the 2020 model and is not available on any trim level.
To help clear out inventory, sales staff at Friendly Kia are offering $5,000 or more off the MSRP for the sporty box car. With over 200 models in stock, sales staff are hopeful that shoppers will have no difficulty finding a model that matches their individualized wants and needs.
Those with questions about the 2019 Kia Soul are encouraged to call Friendly Kia sales team directly at 877-544-6719. Friendly Kia is located at 5819 U.S. Highway 19 in New Port Richey.
