SUVs to buy under $30,000 in Batesville, AR 

As a testament to their experience, our grandparents often warn us, “Never let your emotions overpower your intelligence!” This is, of course, the smart and logical way of dealing with life. However, one aspect where it generally fails is when we’re buying a new car. Emotions often take center stage. For a couple expecting a baby, it’s the new car that will seal their fate as a family. Parents buying a new car for a teenager are allowing her to spread her wings and take baby steps into the real world, all the while weaning her off their protective cover. For a graduate with her first job, it’s a matter of pride. In these situations, you might also want a car that is competitively priced and fits your budget. Are you wondering: Where will I find SUVs to buy under $30,000 in Batesville, AR? At Mark Martin Kia, we house an eclectic range of SUVs under $30,000. You can schedule a test drive to take any of the models for a spin!

Vehicles Available for a Test Drive in Batesville, AR

For a more incisive review of the vehicle, one will have to drive it. Check out the best vehicles available for a test drive in Batesville, AR, at Mark Martin Kia.

2019 Optima SX

IRVINE, Calif., December 21, 2018 — Kia Motors America (KMA) is proud to announce that a total of eight Kia models were included in the 2019 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Awards, making it one of the top three brands to rack up the most safety awards following tougher IIHS requirements for 2019. The all-new 2019 Forte, which just went on-sale this past summer, is one of the five models to earn a Top Safety Pick Plus award – the IIHS’s highest designation possible – when equipped with front crash prevention and specific headlights.

Orth Hedrick, Director of Car Planning and Telematics for KMA said “We are honored to receive so many IIHS saftety awards across our lineup, especially considering these designations are much harder to achieve in 2019.”

Vehicles are now required to earn a “Good” rating in the passenger-side small overlap test versus an “Acceptable” or “Good” rating for the 2018 award. The test also requires a vehicle earn “Good” ratings in all other crashworthiness tests and a an “Advanced” or “Superior” rating for front crash prevention, as well as a “Good” rating in headlight testing.

Kia IIHS Top Safety Pick modles are the 2019 Forte, 2019 Niro, 2019 Niro Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV), 2019 Optima, and 2019 Sorento when equipped with optional front crash prevention and specific headlight.
The 2019 Rio, 2019 Soul, and 2019 Cadenza were top safety pick models for the passenger-side test when equipped with optional front crash prevention and specific headlights.

Andy Freels, President of Hyundai America Technical Center, Inc. said that “Safety is a top priority for our vehicles.
