What do you think of when you hear the phrase “Longer, lower, wider, more spacious?” You probably didn’t think of the 2011 Kia Sportage, but you should, because it has all of that on top of a phalanx of powertrain and accessorizing options. Globally, the five-seat crossover will offer... 

Kia has been making waves this past year or so with introductions like the Soul and the Forte Koup, and for 2010, they hope to be make an impact on the racetrack as well. Here at the Chicago Auto Show, Kia is displaying their new Forte Koup racecar that is competing in Grand-Am’s Continental... 

The time has come to move on from teaser images; Kia has finally pulled the covers off its new plug-in hybrid concept. As this is being written ahead of the official unveiling at the Chicago Auto Show, we know a few more details about the concept, but we are still largely in the dark about the technical... 

Kia wants you to consider its 2010 Soul a template ripe for customization, and if you can’t think of funky things to do with it, Kia will be glad to help you. This is the Kia Ignition Soul – the second special edition after the 1,200 Denim Souls released earlier this year – in “scorching”... 

In an interview with the blokes from Autocar, Kia head designer Peter Schreyer had plenty of interesting things to say about the possibility of a new rear-wheel drive sportscar from the Korean automaker based on the KEE concept from the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show. If it ever sees the light of day, Schreyer... 

Will they build it or won’t they? That’s the question we’ve all been asking since Kia showed off its funky Soul’ster concept earlier this year at the Detroit Auto Show. We’ve been hearing rumblings that there’s a solid push from inside the Korean automaker’s... 

Perhaps the most important fact about the all new Kia Sorento isn’t that it’s a “right-sized” compact CUV. If Kia’s boundless enthusiasm is any indication, the most important fact is that the 2011 Sorento is the first Kia designed and built in entirely in the USA. In... 

Sometimes it’s hard to remember what you did just yesterday, but think back to 2003 when Kia first introduced the Sorento mid-size SUV. At the time, the market was dominated by body-on-frame vehicles with real honest-to-goodness four-wheel-drive systems and rugged part-time transfer cases.... 

It’s not that there was much wrong with the Forte’s predecessor. In fact, the last time we drove a Kia Spectra, we walked away wondering if anything more might be overkill. The Spectra was good but tended to blend in with a crowd, and Kia’s not into playing the role of wallflower... 

Kia America has just dropped the first official pics and details of the next generation Sorento. We first saw images of the Korean market model several months back, and unsurprisingly, the version we get looks to be pretty much unchanged. The Sorento is making the transition from midsize body-on-frame... 

If you’re going to ape the design of another automaker’s product, it’s best to choose one that’s attractive. Therefore, we give Kia kudo points for making its Venga look something like a smoothed-over Ford Fiesta, a car we’ve gone on record multiple times as admiring.... 

The Kia c’eed has come in for a voluminous number of changes, all of which are explained in the massively massive press release after the jump. The short of it is a restyled exterior, new interior elements, new mechanical structures such as a revised subframe for better NVH performance, the...
