WELCOME TO THE KIA COMMUNITY
Kia Motors has been a leader in the automotive market when it comes to value and warranty, but its vehicles have always looked the part of affordable, economical transportation. Starting with the 2010 Kia Soul, the South Korean automaker is starting to incorporate inspiring, attractive designs into its new vehicles which appears to be an ongoing trend. Kia followed up the Soul with the stylish Kia Forte sedan and Kia Forte Koup, and its new design language is now moving into the more lucrative midsize crossover segment with the 2011 Kia Sorento. While the Soul and Forte are both new names to Kia, it decided to keep the Sorento name due to the ruggedness of the previous model, but as a sign of the major overhaul, there will be no 2010 model Sorento.
Set to hit dealership showrooms in January 2010, the second-generation Kia Sorento will go up against popular crossovers ranging from the five-passenger Chevrolet Equinox, Nissan Murano and Ford Edge up to seven-passenger crossovers like the Toyota Highlander, Honda Pilot and Dodge Journey. The all-new Kia Sorento will come in three trim levels (LX, EX and EX V-6). According to Kia’s vice president of marketing, Michael Sprague, the 2011 Sorento’s expected volume seller will be the five-passenger Sorento LX FWD, and while the starting MSRP has yet to be announced, he said that the base LX will start under $20,000...

Pizza Wars: Why Auto Dealers need to be involved in Social Media
Have you seen the commercials? Domino’s pizza is running a social media campaign saying they realize they've made a few mistakes in the past but are willing to listen to the public and take their constructive
criticism. Then, they talk about how they made changes and then deliver the
reinvented pizzas to the people who critiqued them. These people then give
testimonials on how much better the pizzas are. Genius!

2011 Kia Sportage
- 2011 Kia Sportage
Putting the Sport back in Sport Utility. Image is everything. Fifteen years ago, the Sportage was one of the first products imported to the U.S. by a relatively unknown Korean automaker. That five-door cute-ute not only launched the Kia brand but helped establish it as a manufacturer of basic, affordable transportation.

The Sorento's strengths lie in its interior and its powertrain. The Sorento's strengths lie in its interior and its powertrain. The exterior styling doesn't do much for me, and the chrome wheels, part of the Limited package, are garish. The exterior isn't offensive, but it utterly lacks distinction.

A closer look at Kia's new compact SUV. We first laid eyes on the all-new 2011 Kia Sportage last month at the Geneva motor show, but now that the cute-ute is in New York for its official U.S. debut, we're learning more about what we'll soon see at dealers across the country.

The Forte family grows. Kia took the wraps off a third Forte model, a sleek-looking hatchback that will join the coupe and sedan this summer. Compared to the sedan, the new body style trims seven inches from the overall length, but height, width, and wheelbase remain the same. The two-engine lineup mirrors that of today's Forte, with a 156-hp, 2.0-liter in the base car and a 2.4-liter, 173-hp unit powering the sport version. Either engine offers the choice of a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic with shift paddles.

Kia's midsizer receives a fullsize makeover. Kia's Optima has never exactly stood apart from the crowds of midsize sedans sold here in North America -- but all of that changes with the new 2011 Kia Optima, which makes its big debut at the 2010 New York auto show.
