Customer Testimonials
Kim Moskowitz is a wonderful sales associate. I never felt pressured at all and had a wonderful car buying experience. She was able to work with me on finding a good fit for me. Would recommend her and the dealership in general to anyone who is tired of the typical dealership pressure.
After having a horrible experience at Kia of Port Charlotte on Friday, I scheduled an appointment online to go in Sunday to meet with Joey Pellegrino. I was so apprehensive given what happened Friday as well as just not enjoying the whole car buying process in general (I'd had the same vehicle since 2013!). Joey was AMAZING! He made me feel comfortable, was extremely genuine and honest and made the whole process so easy. Ryan, the Finance Manager, was also AMAZING to work with. Both Joey and Ryan genuinely seemed to care. My only regret was not going here on ... Read More

I want do a huge shout out to Ryan the Finance Manager for spending so much time working on getting an approval for Kia Carnival which is for my company. Thank you to my Sales Associate Davonte and also to Thank my Service Advisor again for battling carshield for two months and never giving up to get them to pay for repairs to my older Kia.I am a huge fan of this dealership and everyone that made my life better through all these transitions.
We purchased 2 vehicles from here in July 2025. However, the finance department didn't collect all of the paperwork prior to closing out the deal. They reached out to us the following week and advised that they forgot to collect the documents. Therefore, I had to take time out from work to travel down to Bradenton to bring in the documents.
Additionally, both the vehicles that we purchased hadn't been prepared for sale. Overall, the vehicles were new. However, they should have been washed, vacuumed and had the plastic removed. Additionally, no one showed us the vehicles features at the ... Read More

My wife recently purchased a pre-owned Volvo from Andrei. He was very patient, professional, and personable. There were a couple of issues at the end of the process which Andrei quickly addressed and resolved. We appreciate the quality and service at Gettel Kia of Bradenton and would not hesitate to return or recommend them.
I had a great experience at Gettel Kia! I love the car I purchased! Andre was my salesperson and he was fantastic. Super nice, professional, low pressure and knowledgeable. Bill was also very, very nice in the financial department. Vincent, also super nice! Very grateful to have a pleasant experience at a car dealership. Refreshing and unexpected!
Davonte is an absolute dream to work with! Personable and funny made car buying an ease. Gabe went above and beyond to get us in the range that we were looking to stay in. 10/10 would recommend coming here for your car shopping being a breeze!
First and foremost I have been a Honda man all my life. So showing up to the Kia dealership to buy a car was a big pivot for me. The things I did know before getting there is that they’ve taken care of my wife three times. She’s been happy and if my wife is happy then by extension I am too.
She’s trusted them and I trust her. So I gave them a shot.
I knew what I wanted going in and when I walked through the door I was immediately greeted and welcomed. But it ... Read More

Buying a new or used car can be stressful. Our experience was smooth and easy. We came in to see a vehicle that we found online and left completely satisfied knowing we got a good deal. Thank you Fred for your help!
I had an excellent experience at Kia thanks to my salesman, Davonte . He was extremely personable, professional, and truly went above and beyond to help me get the price I was looking for.

Like everyone else, I’m generally a bit skeptical of the car buying experience. However, this was really great. Davonte was fantastic to work with. He gave us a really fair deal and was honest and up front throughout the entire process.
Andrei was amazing throughout the entire car-buying process. We had absolutely no issues with him — he was professional, helpful, and easy to work with from start to finish.
Unfortunately, the vehicle we originally purchased stopped working almost immediately after leaving the dealership and didn’t even make it two miles down the road. We brought it back, and thankfully the dealership worked with us to exchange it for a better vehicle.
One word of caution: if you’re completing your final paperwork with Finance Manager Gabriel Sanchez, make sure you carefully review everything before signing. We were given information regarding ... Read More

Kevin is great to work with! Super service and went above and beyond!
After days of the usual dealership runaround, my Mom and I were worn down and frustrated… then we walked into Gettel Kia. The salesperson that approached us was, Davonte, with the warmest welcoming smile.
Right from the start, his sincerity and professionalism shone like the brightness of his smile (which we couldn’t get over, lol). He never came across as pushy or overly rehearsed. He took the time to really understand what my mom was looking for.
What stood out most was his ability to make the experience feel personal without ever making it feel transactional. Davonte treated us ... Read More

The sales team was particularly helpful to me in selecting the appropriate automobile.
The sales rep, Elijah; was very courteous and informative. I will highly recommend him. Elijah actually brought car to my house and we drove the new car and trade ins back. The financial advisor was very thorough, very impressed with his tabletop ipad.
Sales person Kim was very helpful and the sales manager worked very hard to make us happy thank you Gettel Kia of Bradenton
Andrei was great to work with
I highly recommend this dealership. Their customer service was exceptional.
Without going into too much detail, I experienced a serious issue with my vehicle and, based on past experiences with cars and dealerships, I was fully prepared for a long back-and-forth and the usual blame game. That did not happen.
Kia took responsibility immediately, listened carefully, and offered several options to make things right. I was genuinely surprised — in the best possible way. In today’s customer service climate, I did not expect the process to be handled with such ease, integrity, and professionalism.
I felt respected, heard, and taken ... Read More

I had a great experience at Gettel Kia! We worked with a couple people but Davonte was one of them and he was great! Would definitely recommend this dealership.
I wish I could have experienced the same customer service back in 2024.
I would recommend this dealership and team to anyone in the market for a new vehicle. From the moment we made contact online to the moment we signed off on the car, they were nothing but pleasant and nice. Andrei is someone you absolutely would want to handle your car needs. He is knowledgeable and super professional. Andrei is also genuinely caring and Personable. The business manager (so sorry your name escapes me at the moment) was also courteous and attentive. Gabriel was super transparent with our options and advised us well.

Elijah took great care of me during the buying process. He made the process easy and fast.
Gettel Kia was phenomenal to work with-Andrei was so kind, so easy to work with and got us to where we wanted to be on our 2027 Telluride. We would recommend him to anyone if they are in the market for a Kia!
Good service, professional sales staff, and expedious delivery process. I was very satisfied with my overall experience at Gettel Kia of Bradenton.
Zack was excellent, very personable, friendly, very knowledgeable who worked with me. Everyone that came over to where we were was fantastic very nice and friendly. I did not feel pressured to buy a car that I could not afford. I recommend Zack and Kia of Bradenton
Our salesperson was Kim and she was so helpful and accommodating the 3 times we were there. Everyone was so friendly and offered help if we weren’t with Kim. Everything went so smoothly, mainly thanks to Kim being so on top of everything. Oh, and we love our SUV!
Came here looking for a good deal on a used vehicle. With the help of Andrei, Vinny and the rest of the Gettel team I was able to find a vehicle within my budget that I’m proud to call mine. They worked their magic and I’m very satisfied with the commitment and service to their customers
I drove all the way down to Bradenton from Land O Lakes after having a bad experience with the Kia in Wesley Chapel. Danni and Davonte took amazing care of me and got me into not only a way better car that had less mileage than the one I was being offered in Wesley Chapel, but they gave me a much better customer experience as well. They ended up giving me a better car for a better deal overall than the one I was being offered in Wesley Chapel and the experience I had was just hands-down a lot better. ... Read More

My husband and I went in specifically looking for the 2027 Kia Telluride, and we were instantly greeted by Davonte. From the start, he was professional, personable, and truly listened to what we were looking for. Ryan was also an incredible help, very knowledgeable and attentive throughout the entire process. Also thank you Davonte for your service. We loved to work with a fellow veteran! We are so happy with our purchase, but even more importantly, we’re beyond impressed with the overall experience. Highly recommend working with this team! Nicole & Richie Ferris
I was looking for a new vehicle and had test drove every mid size SUV with the Telluride being in my top 3. I had sent my husband out to make the choice hoping it would be the Telluride and thanks to Andre it was! My husband pulled into my driveway with the new 2027 Telluride and I am in love!

After having a horrendous experience at Sunset Kia it was a night and day experience dealing with Gettel Kia of Bradenton. We had a great salesperson, Andrei, who had the support of his sales manager to do a deal. The customer service was exceptional and what should have been a sale for Sunset Kia was a $60K sale for Gettel Kia, who will now get our future business (this was our 3rd telluride). Customer service and a willingness to work and hear a customer still matters!! PS It was also refreshing that my wife was treated as an equal and ... Read More

Kim and Ryan at Gettel Kia were fantastic in helping me get a new hybrid Kia Sportage. They offered a great deal and handled my trade-in smoothly. I always have a great time working with them.
I just received my 3rd car from this location. The experience was amazing! Ask for Mike in Sales he is top NOTCH! Patrick the Sales Manager was in connection during the transaction and was excellent! Vaughn in Finance was also great! He is detailed to attention and explains everything thoroughly. Ask for Mike! I couldn't be more pleased with everything!
Very helpful
We worked with Arthur when recently purchasing our 2025 Kia Sportage. He was great to work with, patient, knowledgeable, and not high pressure. He answered all our questions thoroughly. Just before we drove off with the car he placed WeatherTech mats in the car for us. I would gladly go back and work with Arthur when I am purchasing another car.
Davonte and Nigel are the bessttt!!! I got my first car with them, and they were really kind and nice, and of course very patience. We had a really good time with them!
Davonte and Nigel are really amazing! We had a really great experience with them. They gave us a fair pricing and honest recommendations!!
Davonte and Nigel are really amazing and they are kind and we enjoyed the time with them 😀
Great experience worked with us Arthur the sales person was great to work with
We had a wonderful experience. Elijah was amazing, very knowledgeable, patient, very thorough with every detail. He made the process very easy to understand. The manager came to say hello and asked how everything was, we really liked that. Gabriel who did the finance paperwork was also outstanding. Over all we had an extraordinary experience… Recommend them 1,000 percent!! Great place, Great Team!!
Mike and Andrei were awesome in making the deal happen along with the manager, Nigel. Great service!
We were treated very well and our Sales guy was excellent
I recently purchased a used car and had the pleasure of working with Arthur Mik. from start. to finish he was professional attentive and easy to work with what truly stood out was his follow up after the sale Arthur went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of even addressing issues he didn’t have to handle his level of customer service and commitment is rare these days. I highly recommend asking for him if you’re in the market for a car.
Ask for Arthur ! We had a great experience purchasing our new Sportage. He made the transaction seamless and has the kindest personality. Thank you !
I read some good reviews online and went in with high hopes and cash…but got hit with a thousand dollar “auto butler” charge on the final bill and typical double taking by the salesman….from “it’s part of the price” to “maybe we can negotiate “ to ”let me go talk to my manager”… I don't like playing games so I’ll take my business elsewhere…
Great place to purchase a car from, Andrei was a huge help! Dealership is very flexible to work with your budget and will accommodate to your needs for new or used cars.
Davonte was my salesperson today. I had specific requirements and he worked hard to find a vehicle that met my requirements. He found the perfect vehicle and then was able to work to make it a possibility for me. He spent a lot of time with me but never hurried or rushed me. He gave me all his attention. Thank you Davonte
Switched from 23 Carnival LXS to 26 carnival EX Hybrid. Davonte made the transition smooth. Great communication. He was even very patient delaling with my twin 4 year olds being impatient.
Great shopping experience. Davonte was great and so was Gabe in finance. Will continue to be loyal customer
Dylan was very knowledgeable and helpful. Even tho we didn’t buy a car, he is a great salesman
Overall very pleased with the team. Andrei made the process enjoyable, in every way. Nigel was very accommodating and both were in all ways professional. It made me want to do business with Kia of Bradenton. Attached is our purchase. Based on it, you all had me at hello!
Had one of the best experiences at Kia. From the moment I walked in the dealership I was greeted with a smile from Davonta.i gave him an idea of what I was looking for and he made it happen. Thanks for everything
Andrew was very professional and knowledgeable about the car we purchased.
Davonte handled our sale today with excellence. Top notch salesperson! We will be back to deal with him!
We had a great experience with Andrei and the team at Gettel. Very pleasant to deal with and worked well to make the deal.
Davonte was such a great help with getting my new car today. He’s very helpful and generous. i appreciate him so much for everything!!
Davonte and the management team were amazing to work with!!!
Andrei was awesome! Very patient, kind and allowed me to try out multiple vehicles with no pressure. I felt secure and not overlooked. Nigel the manager was very attentive and they made sure we left with the best choice for us. Great experience!
Two days ago, I had the good pleasure to be greeted by Andrei upon entering the building. After explaining what I was looking for, he immediately directed me to at least two products. His explaining of each product was impeccable and thorough. As the discussion progressed, He took the time to understand exactly what I was there to accomplish and most importantly, "how". At one point he introduced me to his Sales Manager Nigel and he too, made the process very easy as we worked through each step. Then yesterday I returned along with my wife and together ...

They gave my a price in writing ahead of time and honored it. More of a fair trade for my old Kia than other dealerships. Zach was very nice in sales, got back with me via text quickly.
I understand I took the cash rebate so I could not also get the 0% interest, but I thought they still worked with several banks to get you a good rate. I know I qualify for a 4.9% and yet they gave me a 7.25%. Now I have to refinance. What a pain! Also, I know a lot of dealerships give at least one free ... Read More

Arthur was very very helpful. Everything wenr well and faster then I expected.
I was open to a new vehicle and had appointments set at multiple different dealerships to make sure I found exactly what I was looking for. Davonte stood out amongst all locations. He was courteous, professional, knowledgeable and made my process simple and pleasant. He is the reason I purchased from Gettel Kia.
Great salesperson, great sales manager, Great GM would have been a 5 star if not been for the finance guy. Very unprofessional.
Hi, I’d like to share my experience visiting the KIA dealership in Bradenton. My initial goal was simply to check the price and availability of the vehicle I was looking for, as I knew exactly what I wanted. However, I did not expect that in less than two hours I would be walking away with the keys to a brand new car. Special thanks to Elijah Chkhartishvili and Vincent — everything was handled in the best possible way!
