About Kia
If you will consider the humble beginnings of Kia Motors, you will not expect it to rise in global dominance in the car industry. But as you can now see, Kia cars are so well received all over the world. Its sponsorship of major international sports events like soccer, tennis, and basketball speaks of their status in international business.
A Short Look at Kia’s History
Kia is the oldest car company in South Korea. It was established on June 9, 1944, not as a car manufacturer, but as a maker of bicycle parts and steel tubing. In 1951, the company began assembling complete bicycles and later ventured on building motorcycles in 1957.
It started building trucks in 1962 and cars in 1974. With the immense popularity of its line of cars around the world, it now completely personifies the meaning of its name. Kia means “rising out of Asia.”
