The full story

Why Kia of Lansing earned this grade

Kia Of Lansing is graded A; from December 2025 through March 2026, CarEdge reviewed 4 verified quotes. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and whether charges were clearly shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ Dealer fees were clearly itemized. All 4 quotes showed fully itemized dealer fees. Average confirmed dealer fees were $280, equal to the Median state fee in MI—the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample.

Where to push back

The quotes do not support a conclusion about how selling prices compared with advertised prices. Before agreeing, ask for an itemized written offer showing the vehicle selling price, dealer fees, required extras, taxes and government charges, and compare the selling price with the advertised price.

How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual dealer fees, the actual add-ons, and the final price against the advertised price — not a salesperson's promise.

Only quotes from the past year count. We split them into four groups, newest first: the newest counts 50%, then 30%, 15% and 5%.
