Kia has shifted from a budget brand to a genuine mainstream contender in the used-car market thanks to its high-quality and durable cars. Kia used cars have become popular amongst buyers and hold their value better than they did a decade ago.
Cars24 currently lists 114 Kia cars for sale across Australia, priced from $11,590 to $62,990. According to Cars24 data, last year we sold 642 used Kia cars. The graphs were topped by the Kia Sportage, becoming the most popular car, followed by the Kia Cerato, Kia Sorento, Kia Carnival, and Kia Stonic. Kia hybrid cars like the Kia Niro combine petrol efficiency with electric assistance, making them ideal for buyers wanting lower fuel consumption without relying on public charging infrastructure.
Under the Kia Australia umbrella sits a genuinely broad range made and tested on your roads. City-friendly hatchbacks, family SUVs, a seven-seat people mover and Kia’s newer electrified models. The brand has also launched in the ute segment for the first time, giving buyers more options than a usual Kia SUV or hatch.
The appeal of a Kia second-hand car isn't just the lower entry price; it's what carries over from new. Kia backs its vehicles with one of the longest factory warranties on the Australian market, and depending on the car's age, a meaningful chunk of that cover can still apply to a used purchase. Combine that with lower depreciation once a car is past its first few years, and a used Kia often ends up the more sensible buy than an equivalent new Kia.
Two things worth checking before you commit:
Kia service records and PPSR check: A documented history through an authorised network tells you far more about a car's condition than its odometer reading alone. Missing logbook stamps are a fair question to raise with any seller.
Remaining warranty balance: Ask specifically how much factory cover is left on the vehicle, since this varies by build date and how the car has been used.
With Cars24, you need not worry because our cars come with a PPSR check and undergo 300-point inspections before listing.

Daily hatchbacks
The Kia Picanto is built for tight parking and short trips. It is best suited to solo drivers or couples. The Cerato adds more cabin and boot space, making it a better pick if you carry passengers or gear.
Family SUVs
The Seltos is Kia’s entry-level SUV, and one of the most-searched used Kia cars in this size bracket. It offers a raised seating position without stepping up to a larger SUV. The Kia Sportage sits above this with extra room, and the Kia Sorento tops the range with three-row seating for big families. For households that need more than five seats, the Kia Carnival is hard to beat for space.
Kia utes
The Kia Tasman marks Kia’s first attempt at a dual-cab ute, built to compete directly with HiLux and Ranger. Stock is still limited given how new it is, but a used Kia ute carries the same strength and durability without a heavy price tag.

When buying a 2nd-hand Kia car, the choice between an authorised dealer and a marketplace like Cars24 depends on what comes after the price tag: the pre- and post-sale support.
Cars24 Select vehicles undergo a 300-point inspection before listing online. Every Select car comes with a car condition report, PPSR check, rego transfer, 3-month warranty, roadside assistance and 30-day return guarantee*. Verified dealer listings on Cars24 are cars sold directly by dealers and don’t include Cars24 Select services. Inspection standards and post-sale services vary from seller to seller.
Shopping both listing types in one place means you can weigh up a Select car against a dealer listing side by side, rather than driving between separate yards to compare.
Kia used cars generally range from $11,590 to $62,990 depending on model, age, kilometres and condition. Hatchbacks like the Kia Picanto and Kia Cerato sit at the lower end of the range; meanwhile, newer SUVs and electric models cost more.
Kia Cerato and Kia Seltos are among the most in-demand Kia cars in Australia because they offer a strong mix of practicality, low running costs, and reliable resale value.
Kia backs new vehicles with one of the longest factory warranties in Australia. On a used Kia car, the cover may still apply depending on the build date and mileage; always confirm with the seller before buying.
Both work, but inclusions differ. A Kia service and warranty through an authorised dealer depends on that dealer’s own terms, while Cars24 lets you compare inspected Select listings and verified dealer listings side by side in one search.
The Kia Sportage covers most family needs with a solid cabin and boot space, while the Sorento is a better option if you need three rows of seating. The Seltos suits couples or smaller households wanting something more compact.
Yes. Eligible Kia used cars on Cars24 can be financed through approved lending partners, subject to eligibility. Buyers can explore repayment estimates, compare available finance options and complete much of the application online without affecting their credit score, making the purchase process more convenient.
Cars24 Select listings include a PPSR check and a car condition report as standard. For dealer listings, ask the seller directly for the logbook and Kia service records before committing to buy.
Yes, the Tasman is Kia’s first dual-cab ute. As a newer model, used Kia ute stock is still limited, so it’s worth checking the current listing regularly if this is the body type you want.
