The 6-point Walkaround is a great method to ensure you thoroughly and efficiently present the vehicle every time to the customer. Remember, using tablets during your demonstrations of Kia Drive Wise and other advanced features will help build trust, improve customer experience, and may help close the sale.

Focus on these six areas of the vehicle, highlighting key Kia differentiators based on features and functions you learned are most important to the customer while understanding their needs:

1. Front End
2. Under the Hood
3. Driver's side
4. Rear
5. Rear Passenger
6. Front Passenger

Electric Vehicle customers are especially tech-savvy and have done much research, so be sure to complete all product training courses and use tablets and resources such as the Kia eDelivery Tool, Kia PPC, and Kia’s Features & Functions channel on YouTube^TM to help deliver the most accurate information.

During these extraordinary times that require social distancing, use social media and video conferencing apps to connect with your customers to conduct the Walkaround. Make sure you are comfortable and knowledgeable with the technology using to meet with the customer to ensure a pleasant and comfortable experience.

If a Walkaround is done in-store, observe social distancing and CDC guidelines. Ensure that the vehicle is sanitized and communicate that to your customers. Customers will appreciate that you have their health and safety in mind.

Sincerely,
