Hi all, I think this was adressed previously but I couldn't find anything when using the search function - I saw several websites running 0% APR for 66 months for the Telly but none so far out of the 2 dealerships I've visited honored them. The best I found was a 1.9%. Any tips?
 
I saw 1.99 for 60 or 66 months and I asked my salesman if it would still be in effect when my car was delivered and he said he thought it would be
 
Dealers are independent and do not have to offer or honor any manufacturer financing. I haven't seen any 0% on Tellurides though. Where have you seen that?
 
I saw 1.9% up to 66 months

Always refer to Kia.com for current promotion. There is also $400 military discount. Some dealers will offer $500 for financing through Kia at higher rate(2.25%/66mo).

Agreed that I’ve never seen this for the Telluride. Open to being wrong though 😊
 
Keep in mind that is only if you finance through Kia Finance.
 
Thanks guys - so you can apply with Kia and then take it to a dealership?

Yes that is very misleading unless they are using 3rd party financing or you’re going to pay through the nose for the car

I was actually really close to making a deal with Carson but in the end the managers wouldn't budge on the 3.5K markup. Otherwise the APR was set at 1.99%/66 or 2.25% + $500 which was slightly better.
 
Based off their websites. More misleading than information, honestly:

Ah, yea I’m seeing that on my local dealer sites as well. Yea, seems Kia is just trying to blatantly bait and switch, as nowhere else on the site does it even show an offer of 0% for the Telluride, as it does for the other vehicles shown.

As other people have said the best thing is to just check directly on Kia's website for the most updated info.

Dealer competition is a wonderful thing. If one dealer is charging too much, go somewhere else. Free-market capitalism and the freedom of choice is a wonderful thing!
 
Good news - Cerritos is buckling and wants to meet me at MSRP and throw a couple of dealer addons for free. Waiting for confirmation on the SX-P I want and let's see if we can have a deal :)
