The 2013 Kia Cadenza full-size sedan has just been revealed. Slotting in above the midsize Kia Optima and under the even-larger Kia Quoris, the new Cadenza looks to be just a facelift of the current model, with a new interior as well.
So if you thought that the crazy automobile recall saga had ended, you were wrong. Since our last post on the recalls earlier this year, there were an insane amount of recalls that followed, from almost every car manufacturer in the world you can ever think of, almost all of them being issued following instructions from the U.S.-based NHTSA agency. And we could not bother to post each recall issue as a separate story, the task being as equally tedious as the reader-response to these. Here are all the recalls that could potentially be relevant to our region since April 2012.
The latest model of the Kia Carens, a compact MPV offering from Kia, has been revealed at the Paris Auto Show.
Kia plans will bring the 2014 Pro-ceed, or “Pro_cee’d” as their marketing monkeys have dubbed it, and Hyundai will follow suit, bringing the 2014 3-door i30 to the 2012 Paris Motor Show. The cars will be unveiled at the company’s press conference on 27 September.
It seems Kia is getting into the product-placement game in full force, with their cars set to appear in the upcoming James Bond movie Skyfall.
The new 2013 Kia Sorento has been officially unveiled, and while it looks like a minor facelift, the Korean carmaker claims it is an all-new design with a completely new platform.
Self-praising aside, DriveArabia.com is certifiably the most comprehensive and most popular consumer-focused automotive website in the GCC. That gives us a good insight on what cars people are researching these days. Mind you, researching and buying are two completely different things, but we can figure out from our data which car brands and models are generating the most buzz among the general car-buying population. It is easy to see the concerted marketing effort by certain manufacturers are paying dividends, while some are banking on their long-running earned reputation, and others are doing well purely because of good new products.
The all-new version of the Kia Cerato compact sedan, also known as Forte in some countries and as the K3 in Korea, has been revealed. It took long enough for Kia to get their own version of their parent company’s ground-breaking new Hyundai Elantra.
Kia Motors will introduce the next-generation Cerato compact sedan later this year in its home market of Korea under the name ‘K3’. Still to be known as the Cerato elsewhere, the original was Kia’s global best-seller in 2011.
When Kia launched their all-new flagship, a rear-wheel-drive fullsize sedan based on the Hyundai Genesis, they named it the Kia K9 for the Korean market, but held off on releasing its international name. Now they have, and it’s called the Kia Quoris.
