J.D. Power, global marketing and information company, named Kia at the top of their 2017 list for new vehicle quality. This is the second year in a row the Korean manufacturer has achieved this honor, placing above all other major auto makers, including luxury brands.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has named the Kia Optima a leader in safety. The IIHS designated the 2017 KIA Optima as a Top Safety Pick Plus (TSP+).
The 2017 KIA Soul has been selected as one of the top ten coolest cars under $18,000 by Kelly Blue Book. Despite the honor that this selection means, it is not new to the KIA Soul. The Soul has been selected six times in a row for this list.
This April the 2017 Kia Cadenza was recognized by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, an independent nonprofit scientific and educational organization dedicated to reducing and preventing the injuries that result from automobile accidents.
Kia is known for value and efficiency, so it’s no surprise that four vehicles from the South Korean manufacturer have made a Kelley Blue Book Editor’s List of “Eco-Friendly” auto options.
KBB.com concludes the Kia models are “Stellar on Fuel Economy at Affordable Prices” meaning they provide high quality performance at a surprisingly reasonable price point. Read on to find out what made the list and why.
