Upcoming Kia Models in 2025 and 2026
Kia is rapidly expanding its lineup to meet the evolving demands of drivers in Streetsboro, Akron, and beyond. The 2025 and 2026 model years bring exciting updates, particularly in the electric vehicle (EV) arena and redesigned internal combustion engine (ICE) models.
Electric Vehicles Leading the Way

Comparing Kia SUVs: Telluride vs Sorento vs Sportage
Choosing the right SUV can be challenging, especially when Kia offers multiple excellent options. Here’s a detailed comparison focusing on size, power, seating, and cargo capacity to guide Streetsboro and surrounding area drivers.

Do Kia Vehicles Maintain Their Value?
Many Kia models are known for holding their value well, an important consideration for buyers in Medina, Richfield OH, and surrounding areas.
- On average, Kia vehicles retain 50% to 65% of their original value after three years, comparable to other mainstream brands.
- Popular models such as the Sportage, Sorento, and Forte show stronger resale values due to high demand and reliability.
- Proper maintenance, including regular oil changes and using genuine parts from our Parts Department, is crucial to preserving vehicle value.
- For those considering trading in a current vehicle, use our Value Your Trade tool to assess your car’s worth before upgrading.
Kia’s Approach to Luxury: No Separate Brand Needed
Unlike some manufacturers, Kia does not operate a distinct luxury division. Instead, it delivers premium experiences through top-tier trims and flagship models.
- Flagship Models: The Telluride and EV9 provide upscale interiors with Nappa leather seats, ventilated and massaging features, advanced infotainment, and cutting-edge safety technologies.
- Luxury Trims: Options like the SX Prestige and GT-Line trims offer panoramic sunroofs, driver assistance systems, and premium sound systems, making luxury accessible to Streetsboro and Hudson drivers without the luxury price tag.
- Kia’s parent company, Hyundai Motor Group, operates the separate luxury brand Genesis, but Kia focuses on blending value and refinement within its own lineup.
Explore our premium selections through the Our Certified Inventory and experience luxury firsthand.
Important Information on Discontinued Kia Models
The Kia Soul, an iconic model beloved for its unique style and urban practicality, will be discontinued after the 2025 model year.
- Production ends this October, with limited models still available at dealerships.
- While the Soul was popular in Streetsboro OH and surrounding areas, sales have declined, possibly due to the absence of all-wheel drive options compared to competitors.
- Kia of Streetsboro still offers remaining inventory — visit our Kia Soul Inventory to secure one before they’re gone.
Why Kia Tellurides Are Currently Not Allowed in Parking Garages
A recent safety recall affects certain 2020 to 2024 Kia Telluride models due to a fire risk associated with the front power seat motor.
- The motor may get stuck and overheat, potentially causing a fire while the car is parked.
- The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Kia recommend owners park their Tellurides outside, away from homes and other vehicles until repairs are made.
- Repairs to resolve the issue will be performed at authorized dealerships such as Kia of Streetsboro — schedule your appointment through our Schedule Service page.
- For any replacement parts, our Parts Department carries genuine components to ensure safety and reliability.
If you own a Telluride, call us or visit to address this safety measure promptly.
