In the No. 1 spot is the 2019 Kia Sorento. The factory is offering $4,000 cash back on the Sorento, which retails for $28,695 and has a KBB.com-calculated “Fair Purchase Price” of $27,048.
“The Sorento offers impressive interior refinement, near-luxury options and a small but useful third row. The perfect tweener for those undecided about a compact or midsize SUV,” analysts wrote.
Noting that most factories won’t announce their Fourth of July specials until the eve of the holiday, analysts urged consumers to continue checking manufacturer and third-party sites. To learn more about KBB.com’s list, including photos and analysis, click here.
