2026 Kia Niro LX HEV

I recently purchased a 2026 KIA Sportage Hybrid from Pitre Kia of Las Cruces, and it was hands-down the best car-buying experience I’ve had in a long while. After scouring the internet and visiting Ford, Toyota, and Hyundai dealers in Las Cruces, I was frustrated by the "Dealer Add-Ons" everyone else was forcing on customers. I am a retired sheet metal worker and appreciate straightforward deals—I don't like being told I must pay for extras I didn't ask for. Everything changed when I met Christopher Hernandez (a former Marine). People like to do business with people they like, and I immediately liked Christopher. I told him I needed a safe, economical, and maneuverable vehicle for my wife to replace her Jeep Gladiator Ecodiesel, which wasn't ideal for short trips around town. Why I chose Pitre Kia: No Pressure on Add-Ons: Unlike other dealers, Christopher assured me I didn’t have to buy the dealer add-ons if I didn't want them. This honesty is rare and was the main reason I stayed. Expert Knowledge: Christopher helped me navigate the inventory until we found the 1.6-liter turbo hybrid motor that checked all our boxes for efficiency and power. Patient Service: I did my research, took a few trips back, and Christopher was helpful every step of the way without being pushy. If you are looking for a New Kia in Las Cruces, go see Christopher Hernandez. He’s a professional who respects your time and your budget. My wife loves her new Sportage!

We bought the vehicle we had chosen on line. We were pleased with the effort they put in to payoff the trade in. We are extremely happy with the appearance and the functionality of the hybrid Kia Niro.

Thinking my key fob battery was dead, I was stranded. I called Kia to see if they had a solution. They promptly sent 2 men to my rescue. They didn't shame me for being a "dumb boomer". We shared a laugh because I was trying to get into the wrong car! Service is beyond exceptional!
