KIA ... LX/EX/SX/SXL ..WHAT'S WHAT!

Ok, So I will ask customers when they come in for a Kia Vehicle, "are you looking at an Lx, Ex or Sx?"  Many of them know already because, after all, the internet is a wealth of information. 

For those who are not in the know, here is what the different designations mean.

LX /GDI /FE  are designated as the lower end of the scale.  (I detest using the term 'base model' as it brings up connotations of manual windows, stick shift and am/fm radio. Actually our LX models are more about affordability thank trying to strip a lot of creature comforts.  All Kias come with bluetooth connectivity, am/fm/xm radio. many with CD players, although these days, CD players are going the way of cassette players as most folks listen to streamed media. but that's another blog....The typical LX model has upgraded cloth interior, cruise control, many have back up cameras, power driver's seats and of course all of them come with the Kia 10 year / 100,000 mile drive train coverage and the 5 year/60,0000 manufacturer coverage as well as 5/60,000 roadside assistance. 

EX models have a few more goodies, usually an upgrade to leather interior, sunroof options, navigation and upgraded stereo options, some feature upgraded engine size options (like on the Soul you go from a 1.6 to a 2.0 litre engine) ... Technology package options and more. 

The SX / SX limited will feature all the upgrades that are  are available including heated and cooled seats, electronic parking brake, some models have the heads up display, smart cruise, chrome package (SXL) and upgraded NAPPA Leather interior. 

I happen to drive a Kia Cadenza (K7) which is fully loaded, but one step below the SXL.  I grew up with Mercedes, Audi and Volvo. All amazing cars.  My Cadenza is my favorite car out of all the cars I have ever owned.  Euro Luxury without the Euro Luxury price or cost of ownership.
