More about Kia:

Kia has a long history of making cars, but actually we started making bicycles back in 1944. For over 75 years, we have been putting people on the move. We have proudly delivered solutions that help people move from one location to another, connecting them with each other and bridging physical and emotional distances between them. Movement has always been at the heart of our brand and moving people at the core of our business.

We believe movement inspires ideas. That is why we at Kia create the space for you to get inspired, and more time to bring your ideas to life. This is why we exist. Movement is also an important part of our mindset at Kia.

It is shared among our nearly 5000 employees in the Region, in all areas of our organization. This agile and can-do attitude is proudly lived across the 14 European subsidiaries we operate in, among colleagues from more than 40 nations. A mindset of moving forward, always striving, and of constant improvement - a growth mindset.

This mindset led us to achieve great success such as: becoming certified as Great Place to Work, winning European Car of the Year in 2022 with our EV6 and being nominated for the award in 2024 with our EV9.

With more than 600,000 units registered in Europe in 2023, we keep on challenging ourselves and improving.
