I recently purchased a 2027 Kia Telluride EX Hybrid from Crown Kia of St. Petersburg, trading in my 2023 Kia Sorento, and I can confidently say that this was the best dealership experience I have had in the Tampa Bay area. What impressed me most about Crown Kia was their transparency and genuine care for the customer. Everything I saw on their website, including the vehicle pricing and offers, was consistent with what I was told at the dealership. There were no unpleasant surprises or last-minute games. That level of transparency made me feel comfortable throughout the entire purchasing process and distinguishes Crown Kia from many other dealerships. Gary Parsons, my sales representative, did an excellent job from beginning to end. He was knowledgeable, patient, and professional, and he explained the vehicle, pricing, and purchase process clearly without putting pressure on me. He made sure I was comfortable with every step and answered all of my questions carefully. I also had an excellent experience with Anthony Montesano, the Financial Services Specialist. He was friendly, efficient, and straightforward in explaining the financing and paperwork. Dexter Benjamin, the Sales Manager, was equally kind and attentive. I especially appreciated the way he genuinely cared about making sure I was satisfied with the purchase rather than simply trying to close the deal. Even though I did not use the service department during this visit, I was impressed by the facility. The service work area is visible from the waiting area through a large glass wall. To me, even the design of the dealership reflects Crown Kia's emphasis on openness and transparency. And, of course, I absolutely love my new Telluride EX Hybrid. It is powerful, smooth, quiet, comfortable, and loaded with features. It is easily one of the best vehicles I have driven. There are many good Kia dealerships around Tampa Bay, but based on my experience, Crown Kia stands out as the best. Their pricing is highly competitive, but more importantly, they treat customers with respect, transparency, and genuine care. Even if you live much closer to another Kia dealership, I strongly recommend making the extra drive to Crown Kia in St. Petersburg before buying your next Kia. In my experience, it is absolutely worth the trip. Thank you, Gary, Anthony, Dexter, and the entire Crown Kia team, for making what can often be a stressful car-buying experience surprisingly comfortable and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Crown Kia without hesitation.

I have bought about seven new vehicles in my lifetime in this experience at Crown Kia was by far the best experience. Anthony Scopacasa was very professional and absolutely made the sales process super easy and seamless. I would highly recommend this dealership just because of Anthony.

We recently worked with Kate Rydzhak to find a new family vehicle, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. We ended up with the Kia Carnival, which is the perfect fit for our needs, but it was Kates approach that truly stood out. She took the time to listen to exactly what we were looking for and laid out all our options clearly. Most importantly, she explained everything thoroughly without a hint of pressure, making us feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process. It is rare to find this level of genuine customer service in the automotive industry. If youre looking for someone who is patient, knowledgeable, and professional, we cannot recommend Kate highly enough!

​If you are looking for a seamless car-buying experience, I highly recommend working with Kate Rydzhak. She recently helped us with the purchase of a Kia Carnival, and the entire process was excellent. ​Kate is professional, knowledgeable, and made what can often be a stressful situation very straightforward. She took the time to answer all our questions and ensured we felt confident and well-informed before driving off the lot. Her great attitude and efficiency really stood out. ​If you’re heading to the dealership, definitely ask for Kate!
