Used Kia cars for sale near Corpus Christi, TX under $50,000

Inundated with staff: 1st new car where floor mats weren't included. Way different than Autonation!

I've own a 2024 Kia Sorento SX Prestige for two months and have been completely satisfied with it. It has more then enough power. For those who have an issue with the dual clutch transmission, should understand that it is a computer controlled manual transmission. It will respond a bit differently then a conventional torque converter type. Some have said it doesn't shift smoothly at lower speeds but I personally have had no issues. I live in Pittsburgh Pa, which has a hilly terrain and bad roads and no problems so far. Stop and go traffic has been a none issue. Very smooth shifting transmission! The ride quality is very good. A little on the firmer side, but it takes large bumps well. Seats are comfortable and the interior has a premium feel. I've own a 2019 Honda Pilot Touring and in my opinion, the Sorento is better in every way except for the room in the rear. And where it excels is in the features it offers! It's much better equipped than Pilot at a less expensive price. It has so far been the best car I've own in my fifty years of buying cars! Everything works! Sorento has been one of Kia's more reliable vehicles. I highly highly recommend!

There is quite a bit to love about my 2025 Kia Sorento X Line. Great features, decent size navigation screen. However, I find the seat to be a bit uncomfortable due to the edging on the back of the seat with how it is curved. Also, I’m not sure exactly how long the paint job will last as my salesman did mention it’s not the best. My dealership wiped it clean instead of actually washing it before I took possession of it and this caused swirl marks all over it!

Mike Shaw Kia Sales Is Stellar. SPID and Nile location in Corpus Christi Texas. I never use automated Website Features, but I did this time to find a close match to my new vehicle purchase. It was received and answered timely, with a courtesy call from DEMARIO TAYLOR! WOW!!! I let him know I would be there after 2pm. With a follow up call 15mins prior we confirmed we were still on. What a GREAT HUMAN BEING. Demario was as kind, receptive, informative, helpful, courteous, competent, knowledgeable, proficient, not pushy at all on the phone as he was in person. It was like working with a friend to meet a common goal. And I left with exactly what I needed, and asked for. Not only that the atmosphere in the Sales Room was like Family, if anyone passed by you that worked there, they made a very friendly attempt to make sure I had anything I needed and offered everytime water or a snack. Demario left no stone unturned and he went beyond and above the call of duty. The man works hard, knows his stuff, is Professional, is attentive, and is such has a beautiful soul. Thank you Demario, Thank you very much! Missy Morrison, a customer and I feel like I have a new friend. I appreciate everything you did for me. My Hat is off to you.

Great customer service. My Kia Sportage drives very comfortably. Love the heated seats. Great for carrying large items cause you can put the back seats down.

Frances went above and beyond to provide my family and I with superior service and a wonderful visit! She was attentive to every detail of my service request, and provided top-notch communication throughout the visit and follow-up. With this having been my final service encounter at Mike Shaw Kia prior to moving out of state, I would like to thank Frances for her professional and courteous customer service. Also, big thanks to service reps Brandon and EJ, and service director Jeff Barlow for providing equally outstanding and accomodating service over the past nine years. Mike Shaw Kia Service is the absolute gold standard!

The deals offered are great ...I walked in they were able to take my vehicle in right away and promised the time it would be ready...did not let me down

I LOVE my 2023 KIa K5 GT-Line. I have the Passion Red, and I must say it’s a very sexy color. The panoramic sunroof is my favorite feature. The K5 rides so smooth and handles very well. If you’re considering this car…don’t hesitate any longer. GO BUY IT!!!

Toby was absolutely amazing to work with! She made the entire car buying process smooth, easy, and stress-free. From the start, she listened to what I was looking for, answered all of my questions with patience, and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. Her professionalism and knowledge really stood out, and she went above and beyond to make sure I drove away happy. I?ve never had such a positive experience at a dealership before, and I would highly recommend Toby to anyone looking for a vehicle!

Very happy with our purchase! It's got lots of power & very comfortable. With 2nd row folded down we can get 24 bags of groceries in it. Seats are comfortable & my husband who's 6'6" has plenty of leg room. Now I understand why I see so many Kias on the road!!! It's a joy to drive!

Very pleased with all personnel involved in assisting me in my purchase of my Explorer. Cole was exceptional in all aspects of the buying process.

I only had the car 1 month but drove it to Florida (all around) and back and put on 3,500 miles. My car is a GT-Line, Wolf Grey with the Red interior, Bose speakers etc. The car is a real pleasure to drive. Very Quiet on the road, and my mileage exceeded the 37 mpg epa rating, and that’s while maintaining speeds of 80 mph with 2 people and fully loaded with luggage. Little if any wind noise. Note that at times I hit much higher speeds not knowing since it was so quiet & smooth. The engine RPM was mostly between 2 to 2.1 at 80mph. The power of the 2.5 liter is good, and slightly better than the 2019 Camry I had, which was a very good car as well. The Bose system sounded great, and all the alert sensors and some other sensors like keeping your car steering between the lines worked very well, but I preferred to turn that off most of the time. If you turn on your turning signals to changing lanes, and a car is present, not only does your side mirrors alert you, but you’ll get sound notices and the steering wheel will vibrate. Triple redundancy. The handling is very good, and secure, brakes are excellent and has a very good feel to them. A very important note is, I appreciate that the 2.5 engine has both Direct & Port Injectors on each cylinder. Port injectors will help cleaned the valves and clear any carbon build up. This is the same arrangement my Camry 2019 had which greatly reduces or eliminates carbon buildup in these Direct Inject Engines. The Nav system worked flawlessly and quickly. I also love you can remotely start your car with the key FOB (No additional charge) or with Kia Connect though Kia connect is only free the 1st 3 years. Also, happily, it doesn’t have the stop & start engine control which can cause more wear on your starter motor with little gain on MPG. The seats are very comfortable as I can attest driving 12 hours straight on my first stop. The car’s 8 spd auto shifted smoothly in all conditions. Plenty of room inside. Lot of storage in the console area for incidentals and drinks. I enjoyed the Panoramic roof. The negative was the Combine toggle Climate & Media control is a bit counter intuitive and sometimes causes more effort to control. Trunk space is good, as I had lots of luggage. The car feels solid & hopefully reliable down the line. The only other negative which is because I do my own oil changes etc, is this car takes a Cartridge oil filter (Not spin on) and takes 6.1 quarts of oil, (Not 5 qts) but I knew this well before I bought it but it’s location and design is good. So it’s not a real big deal, but this will cost a little more for oil changes. Recommended oil chg is 7,500 but I’ll be doing it every 5 to 6K for sure. BTW recommended oil is 0 -30W. Based on my limited time but very heavy usage I highly recommend this car, and I really enjoy driving it. Very sporty looking.

I was met by a young lady named Reyna Sevilla Guerrera and she provided me with excellent and first rate service. The entire process was extremely stressless and expediant. Superb job!!

Telluride functions as a large SUV while feeling like a more nimble vehicle. Storage space is generous and interior is well thought out. Smooth, quiet ride with adequate acceleration.
