About Kia
Once renowned as simply a maker of cheap cars, Kia is now one of Australia’s biggest and most respected car brands.
Value continues to be a key Kia attraction – it was the first in Australia to offer a huge 7-year warranty – but, along with its parent company Hyundai, Kia has been investing heavily into engineering, design and electric powertrains and is now reaping the rewards.
The result is that the Korean company’s cars have been receiving greater critical acclaim in recent years – not least with a Wheels Car of the Year award to its name for the first time when the Kia EV6 electric car won in 2022.
Kia showrooms continue to offer a vast range of options, covering small cars, small SUVs, family SUVs, people-movers, and even sports sedans.
